By industry
Fake reviews don’t look the same in every trade.
A vet gets a social-media pile-on from people who’ve never been clients. A mover gets reviews for a job a broker sold to someone else. A salon gets reviews following a stylist who left. Same policy clauses, completely different evidence.
Each page below covers the attack patterns specific to that trade, the evidence Google can actually verify, and — the part most of this industry omits — which of your reviews nobody can remove.

Not on the list?
The process is the same for any business with a Google listing — the audit scores your reviews against Google’s published policy clauses regardless of trade. Free, no card, no signup to see the report. You’re billed $149 only when Google actually removes a review.
