Effect of Truthful Reviews

Mostly, being a local guide, I would prefer to add the all type small business to the map in my locality or nearby places. Eventhough, I would leave a review whether it was good, better or best in terms of money and the quality of the products they are selling from. I can proudly say that I have added many shops and restaurants in Saudi Arabia as well India, and my English reviews could have helped many of non arabic expatriates of Dammam & Hofuf.

I had a funny experience from Saudi that, I added a grocery shop ( Doha Shopping Centre, Attached the pic )

with attractive photos and commented that the Items they are selling are good but it is little bit pricey. After a week I got a call from an Indian guy and asked me that “why you commented wrongly about our shop and you have to withdraw the comment” with a little angry. He traced my identity through the facebook and got my number from one of my superior officer. That day, I realized the power of Local Guides and came to know how it effects the business in modern internet age.

But, I kept reviewing about many business about their services continuously and more truthfully. as well answered the questions in my limit of knowledge.
