I like to leave reviews for places I stay and eat. But, I hate to keep feeding the Google machine. Yelp seems to be mostly a US thing, and I’m not a power Trip Advisor user (although I have nothing against them).
Where do you read/leave reviews the most?
On a rare occasion I leave reviews on a seller’s page on a local online marketplace as part of a trust system. I don’t use a Google account or anything else that requires my name to be connected to a review. Since I mostly buy directly from manufacturers, I will sometimes leave a star rating if there is an option. I would consider leaving a more detailed review if a product or service was exceptionally good or to warn about a potential hazard.
