Do review Sites Still help bad casinos?

[skarais]

Review sites are important for anyone who needs a reference about good and reputable casinos, but the problem is that review sites sometimes have fake reviews where they are paid for. Positive reviews are sometimes paid for by casinos, this is to cover up their cheating of their business, but reputable review sites will likely minimize this. Nothing can be truly trusted 100%, so doing your own due diligence/ research and getting the best experience is the right advice. If I were in your, I would probably ask the community rather than rely on reviews from review sites, but review sites are also important and are often used as references.

It depends, if the review site is selling fake reviews then it certainly help bad casinos. But, if the site gives an honest review then it is not helping any bad casinos.  So whether a review site is helping bad casinos depends on the honesty of the casino review site.

I think review sites should be stricter and just not include these casinos at all, instead of giving low scores and moving on.

If review sites decide to completely remove these scam gambling sites from their platform then how do you want users to know about the activities of the site? How will they know that the site is shitty? It will only just make the site scam more since people won’t be able to get any information about them online.

Reviews site should keep doing their thing, and if gamblers are so impatient that they don’t even care to read the reviews and see the ratings then it’s their fault for being scammed. Review sites decide<legit ones> are effective in preventing scams.

You’re not wrong. Some review sites definitely keep listing weak casinos because traffic and affiliate revenue still matter. A low rating doesn’t remove visibility, it just changes perception slightly. I think the real issue is transparency. If a casino has repeated withdrawal complaints or unclear terms, that should be clearly flagged, not just buried in a score. Review sites can help, but only if they prioritize trust over commission. At the end of the day, players still need to: test small withdrawals, read complaints and not chase big bonuses blindly

It depends on the gambler's level of comprehension on what review sites signifies, once a site has more negative reviews, it's a red flag. Review sites are only doing their job, whenever a site gets listed on their platform it doesn't mean the site wont work anymore. Services and payouts would still be ongoing with lots of recorded flaws, the kind of poor service an experienced player would detest.

Hence, reading through the complaints and disputes would save the player time and encourage the gambler to do more research on what other people think of the casino. So the purpose is there, aside the affiliate links, gamblers who frequent review sites would testify that it has saved them from enough trouble and most of all time.

It’s very pitiful that in most cases, even the rating and review system can also be compromised too by people or even casinos. People can go ahead to make certain ratings or even drop reviews on a particular casino they’ve not even tried before for just a small fee, and the worst part of this is that, to them, it’s just another way of generating some extra income without really understanding how detrimental such act may be to the public because some naive gamblers can just come in and start making decisions based on those inaccurate and biased reviews.

I don’t think that’s something to be surprised about. Those review sites are being rubbed by humans and as long as there’s someone behind it then the chance of the system getting compromised is extremely high, all you need to do is simply to find the price that the person is willing to take and you’d have to review you paid for.

Those review sites were created because the owner was in search of something that would give them revenue in future time and if some offers to pay what they have never gotten by writing reviews, then I doubt they’ll turn it down.

When I want to download an app, I usually look at the reviews before downloading because it tells a lot about the app, both good and bad. Though I have seen several situations where reviews are fabricated and they are condemned on the review section so reviews are not really reliable to keep up with casino's standards.

They say good or bad publicity is still publicity, and in gambling this feels true.

Gamblers who enter gambling for the purpose of earning more money or addicted gamblers enter such low-rated gambling platforms. Because they see a large amount of bonuses on the gambling banner and they forget everything and start gambling, they start gambling in such a way that even if there is a problem with withdrawal, they like to gamble there for a long time.
But gamblers who gamble regularly mainly check the gambling platform well and pay attention to whether it is providing proper protection. However, every gambler should enter only if the gambling platform is correct and has a good rating.

I don't think that has got a different meaning. A bad publicity doesn't really mean that it is a publicity per se.

Because someone who's researching and has seen those bad reviews which we might think of it as real, will not continue to move on with that casino.

That's why if you're going to read these review sites and they seem genuine at all, you'll be discouraged. And if there paid bad review sites, I guess that they're likely to be noticed.

This is why if you are a player/gambler, you need to be cautious of what you read over the net. Because not all you read are based on facts. There may be hidden motives especially if they are getting paid to talk or review their services. And the reason why if you are here in the forum, it is better to read the discussions here because you will get a lot of authentic reviews and feedbacks. For outside sources, hard to verify their authenticity.

Most review/ranking sites have their own reviewers. But you will question their integrity and their experience as well. Some are deploying AI reviews and for me, that can be misleading to other users. Some write fake reviews. The very reason why if you want authentic ones, this forum will become handy especially the gambling discussion board.

Though I have seen several situations where reviews are fabricated and they are condemned on the review section so reviews are not really reliable to keep up with casino's standards.

Before, I used to trust reviews on app stores and the Play Store, but not until I saw a campaign in the forum where people are paid to submit some sort of positive review of a particular site on the Play Store, which made me start doubting every other review I see. So if you must check reviews, it should be from different places and not just relying on one data source, as it could be fabricated.

[topbitcoin]

That may still help some gamblers because not every gambler is on the forums so this will still be helpful but for me personally at the moment I'm the one who looks at the forums more will certainly choose better and to be honest forum ratings and ratings from site reviews I will be more on the forums for that.

For those of us who daily deal with gambling sites, especially those on the forum, we can definitely minimize the risk because even though on the site their reviews are very good but when on the forum something is wrong then it could be that the trust we have decreases.
So it will still be very useful but for those outside the forum only.

That is because there is a clear difference when comes to reding reviews from applications for Android and Iphones and reading reviews from webpages like Trust pilot. In the former, all users are supposed to download and try the application before being able to comment anything, translating into more effort by shillers and scammers to manipulate reviews and the average perception of an application. On trust advisor and other similar webs, people are not even required to actually have tries services in order to leave feedback... So manipulating those reviews are easier to be messed with.

It's all about the business. Big review sites get paid by the casino when you click. If they mentioned bad words about the casino, they make no money caused by none is gonna click it. Beside that it's the only dumbest person who still clicked the bad review casino to play with. A normal gambler with sense will not be risking their money to play in the site that doesn't let them to withdraw.

That's the main reason the review site is worth to be ignored. It's caused by they add nothing other than giving fake review to the site who paid them and keep the bad review for the site who didn't paid them.

I believe that our forum is the best online casino review site possible, because everything is done well here. here, unlike many review sites on the Internet, a lot of meaningless positive reviews that were ordered from some promotional company with a bunch of employees who write reviews for a couple of cents will not be allowed. On our forum, all bots will be immediately removed by moderators after user complaints. I have long believed only the opinion of our guys and not the websites on the Internet, where the moderation system still works abominably and there are a lot of good reviews from really lousy online casinos and bookmakers.

I think review sites shouldn't delist these casinos, but rather attach red flags warning of danger and fraud (big, bright, and clearly visible) so people can be informed that a casino is untrustworthy. If review sites completely remove information about casinos, people simply won't be aware of their negative reputations, and many may unknowingly fall victim. My point is that gamblers should still be able to obtain information about a casino's reputation, even if it's negative information. I'd argue that having negative information about a casino is more important than positive information, as it helps avoid losses at untrustworthy casinos.

That still publicity for the site. They don't care with the reviews but they only focus with their promotions. They know many people will visits their site and playing gambling by spending much money especially to participate in the promotions.

People don't have to use the review sites which only search for profit. They can search for other review sites or they can visits here and reading so many reviews from honest and reputable members. They will gets the casino they wants.

But we can't stops those review sites because they can operating their site with or without any visitors but they will get visitors even if that is small numbers. We can only suggests those people to be careful selecting the casino.

Same with you I also believe that Bitcoin forum is the best platform to visit by those gamblers seeks for legitimate reviews came from real people. There's no high rank member here would shill those scam casinos and also they can provably read the real situation of the casino if they visit their ann threads here. The flow of discussions will help them to decide if the casino is really doing good or not.

That's why much better for gamblers especially to those new ones that better ignore those review sites. Much better go in this forum and find or engage with reliable discussions happened on their favorite casino. They provably get good substance on each opinion shared by people in this forum.

I noticed that some casinos already have bad reputation in forums, many complaints, delayed withdrawals, even scam issues. But when you check review sites, they are still listed, just with low ratings.

For me, this is still publicity. Even with bad reviews, they are still visible. New players might still click, see the bonus, and register. Most people don’t really read deep.

Feels like some review sites only care about affiliate money. As long as they earn, they will still list these casinos even if there are already many complaints.

I don't mind bad casinos being listed on crypto casino review sites with low ratings. There's a certain kind of honesty in this. The worse thing would be those casinos to be listed on review sties with good ratings. Yes, some gamblers could still signup to bad casinos with low ratings, but they are doing this at their own risk. I don't understand such people, but who cares. They are risking their own money and shall take responsibility for their own mistakes. I also don't pay much attention to casino review website anymore. All the casino reviews and feedback I need are already being posted on Bitcointalk.
