Reputation Management in Bideford — FAQs

Can I remove a bad Google review?

Only if it breaches Google's policies — for example spam, conflict of interest or offensive content. Genuine negative opinion cannot be removed, but it can be answered well.

Is it against the rules to ask customers for reviews?

No. Asking is allowed and encouraged. Incentivising, filtering out unhappy customers, or writing reviews yourself is not.

Should I target Bideford or North Devon?

Lead with Bideford for map and local intent, and use a broader North Devon page only if you genuinely work across the district.

Prices are the same wherever you are in Devon. Monthly care packages start at £99 a month, websites start at £595, and reputation & review management is quoted against the scope you actually need. Review strategy is included from £99/month. Review generation setup as a one-off is £99.
