[Breaking News] Amazon Review Update! This method of removing negative reviews has been banned

I thought it was a problem with the background or the interface.

I didn't expect that when I checked my listing today

Unexpectedly, I found that Review had an emergency...

Everyone knows about merging variants to remove negative reviews.

Specifically, the main listing

Low star reviews are all concentrated on one variant

Then split this variant out Unavailable

This will make these low-star reviews disappear from the main listing.

▲A variant of the “trash can” used to store negative reviews

And now, Alice finds out

This method has been banned!

Now if you repeat the above operation

After removing the variant

The review will not disappear from the original listing.

Instead, the removed variant information is no longer displayed in the Review.

The Review itself still exists

This operation is a life-saving trick at a critical moment.

Combined with the feedback from friends in the group, there are no negative reviews

Could it be that Amazon is going to sell its Review policy?

Hurry up and open the Amazon seller backend to check

The result was as Alice expected.

The News in the background really appeared

Content about the update of buyer review policy

(Those who can’t see it should remember to switch to the English interface)

Let’s take a look at the updated policy

What behaviors can be considered as comment manipulation?

It's very long and dizzy, right? It's okay.

The previous few items are the same as before.

Our focus is on the third to last line

In simple terms, sellers are prohibited from taking advantage of the variation relationship between products.

To achieve the purpose of gathering comments and manipulating star ratings

This new rule is obviously the reason why our split variants are invalid

Okay, this review is updated.

In addition to blocking the software from finding bad reviews

It also directly bans the method of transferring negative reviews that sellers rely on to survive!

Now we can say that we are running naked under the shadow of bad reviews.

Of course, Alice will not just throw a difficult question to everyone.

Although there is still no proven effective alternative

Alice will still give you directions

Without knowing the logic of Amazon's new policy

Both methods may work

But there are certain risks

You can use the poorly selling

listing to try the method that suits you

Never use it directly on the main product
