Dealer's Buying FAKE Likes on Facebook. v. 50K Fans, Are You Serious..

Yago, Google doesn't owe us anything. Let's not get carried away here.

I would pay a company to report everything my competitors do to game the various systems before I paid for likes.
"Blacklist" would be a cool name for said company. Send me a check if you take my idea and run with it.
 
Late to the thread, and while I don't agree with paying for fake likes, it will help a little to folks that may search you up on Facebook. If you google a dealership and they have 73 likes, meh, you probably don't look around much or add them but when they have 7,840 likes you instinctively think they must be doing something right. The consumer isn't going to browse the likes and determine they are mostly fake. It's just on the surface to create a snowball effect.
 

✨ AI Highlights

Dealers are purchasing fake Facebook likes through vendors like Wikimotive at inflated prices ($500/month for 5K likes), despite the same likes being available for $44 online, and the practice provides no real business value while risking Google penalties. The thread criticizes both the unethical vendors promoting these services and dealers wasteful spending on fake engagement metrics that don't translate to actual sales or meaningful customer interaction.
