Last updated on September 28, 2022 @ 7:54 pm

It’s no secret that many businesses use fake reviews to improve their image and sell more products. But what about when those businesses are selling services on Fiverr, an online marketplace that allows businesses to purchase “gigs” starting at just $5? Are the reviews on Fiverr real, or are they fake?

To find out, we took a closer look at some of the businesses on Fiverr and their reviews. Here’s what we found:

There are definitely some businesses on Fiverr that are using fake reviews. In many cases, it’s easy to spot the fake reviews because they’re clearly written by someone who is not a native English speaker. In other cases, the fake reviews are more subtle, but they’re still fake.

So why do businesses use fake reviews? There are a few reasons:

PRO TIP: Fiverr is a marketplace where people can offer their services for $5. However, there have been many reports of people being scammed on the site. There have also been many reports of people offering fake reviews. So, if you are considering using Fiverr, be very careful.

First, because they work. Fake reviews can convince potential customers to buy a product or service that they might not otherwise purchase.

Second, because it’s easy to get away with it. There aren’t any real consequences for businesses that use fake reviews, so they have nothing to lose by doing it.

Third, because it’s cheaper than buying real reviews. It’s much cheaper to pay someone $5 to write a fake review than it is to pay someone to write a real review.

So what does this mean for you? If you’re considering using Fiverr to purchase a gig, be sure to do your research first.

Read through the reviews carefully and look for signs that they might be fake. And if you’re thinking about writing a review for a business on Fiverr, be honest – don’t write a fake review just to help them out.
