Dallas Headshot Reviews

Hello clients, fellow photographers, bloggers, spammers and bots.  In this discussion I would like to touch on one thing that is really making me crazy.  And that is photographers who use fake reviews on their Google Map  pages. This makes me totally nuts as there are those of us professional photographers and (in my case) headshot photography specialists that work hard to receive honest reviews.  This trend is not just for photographers of course, but all types of businesses. The theory is you see “x-amount of reviews / all 5 star” and don’t really read them. If you do take the time to read them they will seem a bit suspicious maybe, but it becomes more clear when  you click on the number of reviews the reviewer has given.  This usually numbers 5-25 or so and you will see reviews for every type of company under the sun, and many multiples of same types of companies from all over the country.  This is a well-known gimmick and part of a package that is sold to photographers and other types of companies to upgrade their position on the Google Maps page.  You can rest assured our reviews are real, and we back them up with a page on our website where we match the people featured on our website, and in addition folks to the Google Maps page and LinkedIn pages (ours and theirs.)  So, I’m saying? Please. Fellow photographers. You are supposed to be creative types.  So how about doing just that.  Provide work good enough to get you real reviews from real people and don’t stoop this low.  It just brings us all down.
