Review Length

how do online product reviews differ by review length?

False.

Our Assumption

Real reviews are longer. Buyers want to express opinions

Our Findings

Fake reviews tend to be longer

For reviews that Recommand the product:

For both the recommend and don’t recommend situations, Fake reviews are longer. This can be that fake reviewers may need to achieve a certain length to gain the credits/benefits. Or, if we consider the very unsatified customers, they may create long fake reviews to express their anger.

For reviews that Don't Recommand the product:

If we compare across the recommand and don’t recommend, reviewers who recommended the product wrote shorter reviews. This may suggest that people who are satisfied with the product are likely to leave shorter comments like: “It is awesome! I recommend!”
