Turn rivals’ worst reviews into a comparison page

When to use it

You have at least one known competitor with public reviews (G2, Capterra, app stores, Trustpilot) and a real difference you can show.

Steps

1. Read the 1- and 2-star reviews of your main competitor and copy the five complaints that come up most.
2. Keep only the complaints your product genuinely solves. Drop the rest; credibility is the point.
3. Write “[Competitor] alternative for [your buyer]” with a short table: what they complain about, how you handle it, and one thing the competitor still does better.
4. Add your price next to theirs, a two-line migration path, and one screenshot per difference.
5. Link the page from your homepage footer and share it once in the community where those reviews are discussed.

# [Competitor] alternative for [buyer]

People leave [Competitor] mostly because of: [complaint 1], [complaint 2], [complaint 3].

| What buyers say | [Competitor] | [You] |
| --- | --- | --- |
| "[complaint 1 in their words]" | … | … |

Where [Competitor] is still better: [honest point].
Switching takes [time]: [step 1], [step 2].

Common mistakes

• Trashing the competitor reads as insecure. State facts, quote reviews, admit their strengths.
• A comparison without prices looks like it is hiding something.
