online review
Posted consumer opinion
An online review is a user-generated assessment of a product, service, or business posted on the internet.
Reviews typically include a star rating and written commentary about the experience.
They appear on dedicated platforms like Yelp and TripAdvisor, retail sites like Amazon, or business listings like Google Maps.
Online reviews heavily influence purchasing decisions: I always check the online reviews before booking a hotel.
Businesses sometimes solicit fake positive reviews or attack competitors with negative ones, making authenticity a persistent concern.
