Questions
How to Remove Bad Google Reviews: questions
Can you delete a Google review from your business?
No. Only Google can. You can report reviews that break its policy, and Google removes the ones it approves.
Can I get more good reviews to bury the bad ones?
Yes, by asking all your customers. Google's policy bans asking only the happy ones, and fake reviews are illegal.
