Need A Direct Link For Google Reviews?
If you are smart, you want as many customers to leave 5 star reviews on Google as possible.
But...
It isn't as easy as you would think. (Use our "Review Assist
However, with a direct link to Google Reviews it is a lot easier for customers to leave you a review.
Does Your Google My Business Listing Have Directions Enabled?
This is important because you are going to need your place id and if you have directions enabled it is really easy to get your place id.
If you don’t have directions enabled it isn’t as easy.
Believe it or not most local businesses do not have directions enabled.
This is good!
Why?
Because most local businesses operate out of their home and you and Google do not want people showing up at your home address.
WARNING: If you have directions enabled and you are a home based business, this could be grounds for getting your listing suspended.
If Your Business Has Directions Enabled?
If your business has directions enabled, follow these steps to get your Google My Business Place ID.
FYI: You will need this place id to create the link to Google Reviews.
- 1. Go To Google Maps Platform: Place Id
- 2. Start typing your business name into the box
- 3. Copy The Place ID of Your Google My Business Listing
Here is a picture of what that looks like.
If You Don't Have Directions Enabled...
Then the above option won’t work for finding the Place ID.
The way and method of getting the Place ID has changed and some tools have worked in the past but no longer work…etc.
Google is a little ADD and they keep changing so…
If you want access to the most recent way to get the Place ID when you don’t have directions enabled, I’ll give you access to the video instructions on a separate page.
