This is just fine and helpful especially when you do not have any existing reviews yet. But at the same time, if you want to get valid reviews, then I suggest you go back to your old clients and ask for reviews so you also get those real reviews up :)

If you're buying fake Google reviews, the risks and consequences of doing so must first be considered.

Although it sounds like a great, cost-effective solution to propel your business to the top of relevant search results, in the long run, buying Google reviews would almost certainly do your business more harm than good. It's not at all a very good idea in long term.

Fake Google testimonials are false testimonials written about your company, services or products on the internet. They are often written by your opponents to interrupt your internet presence. They may also come from individuals who have never shopped or socialized with that you -- the trolls.

For Google reviews, Google has clear rules:

Reviews do not contain unauthorized, plagiarized or copied material and may not breach the privacy policy of Google.
* No advertisements, spam or false reviews.
* No reviews off-topic or secondhand.
No conflicts of interest, such as reviewing your own business.

So would you pay to write reviews for people? Not according to the policies of Google itself.

The paid google reviews are good but the are not that good because they don't pay that much and then again some people provide some terrible reviews. if you are good at it then you need to be sure that you can handle it.

you need to use citations inside your profiles (NAP).

Create your profile URLs to match your given keywords.

Yes reviews can help, using keywords that you want to rank for inside the google review. Don't be overly obvious about that.

Batter suggestion is that, If you have any old clients and get reviews from them. I think Paid Google Reviews is not good overall.

Leaving your reviews and opinions are voluntary and Google don't pay for adding to Google Maps. However, you can earn some points and level up by contributing on google maps
