Erin Delgado

Erin Delgado covers the review economy: Google, Yelp, industry platforms, and the small businesses whose revenue rises and falls with them. She spent years managing digital presence for local service businesses, where she dealt with review attacks, competitor flagging abuse, and the slow grind of rebuilding a star rating the legitimate way. That frontline experience shapes her coverage. Erin tests review platforms' flagging and dispute processes herself, tracks their policy changes, and interviews business owners about what worked and what wasted their money. She is skeptical of shortcuts by default and says so when a popular tactic violates platform rules or state law. She writes about review removal and disputes, review generation done legally, Google Business Profile issues, and local reputation recovery.
