I've seen some guys selling Amazon reviews on Fiverr.com
Do you think it is worth it? Will they look legitimate?

    No, don't prefer fiverr. Because, there are so many individuals provide their fake information and cheat you as well. So, it is not a good decision to go with that.

    Furthermore - the Internet as a whole is going away from the 'if-you-pay-for-contrived-quality-you-won't-be-rewarded.'

    Google Panda
    Google Penguin
    Facebook getting rid of fake likes
    Twitter getting rid of fake followers

    And a future headline: "Amazon Gets Rid of Fake Reviews"

    It just makes the Internet better for everyone to do it right.

    You are allowed to offer a free product for a truthful, unbiased review...but there's no guarantee it will be positive or negative. I would suggest staying away from purchasing reviews though. Just saw ChannelAdvisor's webinar about how to avoid getting suspended on Amazon, and they seem to be cracking down on fraudulent reviews. I don't think its worth the risk, just my two cents.

    First - I've done several Fiverr transactions, and I've never been swindled. I don't think that there's a credibility problem with Fiverr.

    Second - In general, reviews purchased on Fiverr are going to be very generic, one sentence reviews. They just look like fake reviews. You are better off giving away a few pieces to friends and asking them to write reviews.

    I actually like the 'free product for a review' principle.

    Sometimes it's hard to educate the market in knowing why they should buy your product.

    But if you're willing to give your product away to educate, it shows you have a lot of faith in your product.

    It's why I don't sell with a 'no returns' policy. It's way too beneficial to pay for return shipping as it shows faith in the product.
