Why Review Management Is a Growing Priority in 2026

NetReputation's webinar announcement comes at an important moment for businesses operating in an increasingly review-driven marketplace. According to BrightLocal's 2026 survey, 41% of consumers now say they always read reviews before choosing a business, up from 29% in 2025. Additionally, 31% of consumers will consider only businesses rated 4.5 stars or higher, nearly double the figure from last year. Total online review volume also grew 13% in 2024, and the Federal Trade Commission is actively enforcing its Consumer Review Rule, having issued warning letters to 10 companies in December 2025 for violations carrying penalties of up to $53,088 per violation.

Webinar attendees are invited to schedule a free consultation with NetReputation's reputation management team following the presentation. For more information on NetReputation's review management solutions, click here.
