Ryan, I was approached by one of these firms that guaranteed a score on several different sites, including DealerRater, for $349 or $399 a month.  When I refer to "Reputation Management", this is what I am talking about.


Earlier, you proposed a contest to see who could guess how many fake reviews DealerRater has removed.  By this, I have to assume that it is a staggering number.  The openning question: Dealers flooding review sites with fake user reviews has been answered.  If DealerRater maintains the same diligence, they will continue to remove as many, in the same period of time, in the future. 


Again, DealerRater could stop this if they really wanted to.  It is all about the money.  Honest dealers just want a level playing field.
