Yelp Review Suppression
Yelp is one of the most trusted sites on the internet.
Whenever you search for a local business in Google, Yelp is usually one of the sites you see on page 1.
And since so many people read reviews before making a buying decision, one or two negative reviews on Yelp can really hurt your business.
Marketing and PR firms will advise you how to handle the review publicly, but if you want to nip the problem at the root, then pushing down your entire Yelp page is your best option.
Can We Delete Negative Yelp Reviews?
No.
I wish we could.
But nobody can pluck out individual complaints on Yelp.
The best you can do is flag the review and if it violates Yelp’s terms of service, they will take action on the review themselves.
Thus, it’s pointless for you to try to remove negative reviews from Yelp because only Yelp can delete bad reviews from your page.
Anyone claiming they can do is scamming you.
So, what can you do?

What Happens After The Bad Review(s) Are Pushed Down?
As a result of pushing down your Yelp page in Google, people are far less likely to see those 1-star ratings.
And this is what can happens as a result:
- Your overall rating remains the same. Since bad Yelp reviews can’t be deleted, do not expect your rating to change or increase, however…
- Your business should increase. Since 88% of consumers trust online reviews, pushing down your Yelp page improves consumer confidence in your brand.
Look how many people relied on the 1-star review in the screenshot below.
When your Yelp page is pushed down, chances are remote that people will ever see it.
Yelp Removal FAQ
- Can you remove ANY Yelp reviews? Or just ones that violate Yelp’s terms of service or content guidelines (where you flag it and make a case to Yelp for removal)?
We can’t remove reviews on Yelp, nobody can. Flagging a review for a TOS violation is the only way to potentially remove a review from your profile.
- When Yelp removes a review, is there any communication with the reviewer? Is the removal handled without the reviewer’s knowledge?
That’s a good question only Yelp can answer. We’re not sure if Yelp notifies a poster if/when a review is removed for a terms of service violation.
- Are there other risks to be aware of when using your service?
There are no other risks except the loss of time if we are unsuccessful. But we have a very high success rate.
- If we have multiple bad reviews on Yelp, does your service take longer?
It could take longer to bury a Yelp listing that has more content in the form of reviews, but that’s rare.
What’s My Return On Investment For Burying Bad Reviews On Yelp?
To compute your ROI on investing in burying the negative reviews on your Yelp page, you will need the following information:
- Your Yelp business login information. Email address and password.
- Average cutomer spend. How much does the average customer spend in one visit?
- Visits by customer. How many times does a new customer visit in one year?
- Conversion rate. What percentage of new leads actually become customers?
- Cost to remove negative review(s). Please call or contact us for an estimate.
Step #1
Go to the Yelp For Business Owners portal and input your email and password.
Step #2
Click the Period: 12 months, then click Revenue Estimate.
Step #3
Input the what the average customer spends, how many visits they make in a year, and your estimated conversion rate (ie. what percentage of new leads actually become customers?)
Note that your Yelp customer leads are automatically estimated by Yelp. It is an indication of how many Yelpers are engaging with your business each year.
Step #4
After you’ve input the data in Step #3, Yelp does the math for you and computes the estimated revenue from Yelp Customers. This figure is the amount of annual revenue you are putting at risk by having negative reviews on Yelp.
Step #5
Now that you know how much annual revenue your Yelp profile is worth to your business, all you have to do is contact us to find out what it’s going to cost to push those negative reviews out of search results.
Once your negative reviews are buried in internet searches, your Yelp page is far less likely to be seen and your business should produce more and more leads each year.
Boosting Your Rating With Positive Reviews On Yelp
We do not post reviews to Yelp, as it is against their terms of service.
Yelp has sophisticated IP tracking and trying to post reviews on behalf of someone else doesn’t work – Yelp will file them under “Not recommended.”
However, if you want to get more positive reviews on Yelp, the best way to do is it to encourage your customers who are “Yelpers” to post them.
The best way to do this is to display a “Customers love us on Yelp” banner in your store and by linking to your Yelp page from your website.
You’re not allowed to actively solicit reviews, but if you do a good job, consumers will know you’re on Yelp and hopefully write you a positive review.
