Plugin Description
Power Online Reviews is a simple to install WordPress plugin that fast, easy and simple way to generate a lot more positive reviews on 3rd-party review sites like Yelp, TripAdvisor, etc, and give your business a revenue boost.
According to a study by eVoc Insights, a company that researches and measures user experience, 63% of users indicate they are more likely to purchase from a site if it has ratings and reviews.

What Happens When Users Leave Negative Feedback?

Users who submit bad feedback (e.g. ”1”, “2”, or “3”) are not sent to third-party review sites.
Instead, the user review is saved locally, giving you the opportunity to engage with the customer and also avoiding them venting or posting damaging comments on Facebook, forums, or other 3rd-party review sites.
