so how do we get more reviews for our Google my business profile what are some different strategies we can use uh to do so so we've already covered addressing negative reviews in a previous video Let's address on how to actually get them so uh one big aspect to getting a lot of reviews is to make sure that um you have everything set up correctly to get reviews what does that mean uh that doesn't mean buying fake reviews because that penalizes your SEO that does not mean um trying to uh find ways to sneak the system
because Google always knows since they have many fancy ways of detecting fake reviews and reviews are very important since they count as onpage data which ranks your business higher so one thing we do with our clients at Vortex ranker.com is we find different ways to incentivize clients we come up with different strategies depending on their service and their business to get reviews so the first thing we do in the first month when clients work with us is we give them a QR code and we highly recommend for example if you're a restaurant you would have
that QR code on a plastic display near the cash register when people go to to pay or if they pay by check on the table um then you would trying to find a way to attach that uh QR code on the bottom and ask people if they've had a positive experience to leave a review um for a clothing store we we we came up with a solution to offer a 5% discount and that helped because once we get over the first 20 to 30 reviews it starts all the SEO we're doing starts having a bigger
effect on your rankings so that's something we try to Gress also this is your reputation this is the first thing people see after they see you rank high on Google Maps they go to check what people are saying about your services in your business it's very important to make sure your staff are professional and very nice and make sure the customers feel like kings and queens and they're number one and all that too so it's many aspects it's not just what we do but how you man manage that as well um like we discussed with
the QR codes um and we we help businesses come up with strategies we also uh leave replies to every single review so we try and make each reply unique and personalized to each client thank you so much we're happy you enjoyed the terisu at X restaurant means a lot to us that you came by we hope to see you soon take care that is more better than thank you so much for the positive view or just a like we we write a personalized comment and like that comment and do as much as we can to
create more data by by taking advantage of that one positive review you know and we always make sure we remain professional and friendly and kind that's not just on what we do we also ask our clients to do that too with their with their customers and in combination all this stuff eventually gets you your reviews so when you first launch your business and you're not you don't have any reviews offering a heavy discount to people who leave a review you you know it's a good way to get it you know it's a good strategy to
use it just depends on your business and what uh different things you can offer you can always talk to chat GTP and ask it if you don't want to hire us uh you can go to with chat GTP and ask it tell it to become an SEO expert like we are and ask it for different incentives uh for your particular industry to get more positive reviews and even if you have a few negative reviews we have video cover in um how to convert those into positive ones but even if you do get those and they're
not really easy to deal with but um the most important thing is to focus on you know having way more positive ones that highlight how great your business is and how great your services are because in the end of the day your reputation is one of the most important things especially in some Industries like if we're working with a dermatologist or a dentist or a plastic surgeon one bad review can cost no without exaggeration tens of thousands of dollars uh because if you have one competitor who has full positive reviews but less reviews and ranking
lower than you it's not up to us but clients are more likely to go with that guy since uh he he seems safer at such a high-risk thing like plastic surgery so as long as the reviews uh another thing to keep in mind that people know when a review is exaggerated you know most people know if some if somebody's complaining about something small and irrelevant people just care about the main results of what you're doing is the food good is the service good is it safe uh will I be in good hands those are the
most important things so if you you do everything right on your end and we're here to support you or you're going to do it yourself to do this SEO and everything like that just make sure you do everything right then you're probably going to be have a lot of reviews and you're going to have a great reputation and you will rank high Google Maps as long as you do all the on page stuff we've discussed other videos but that's basically it for today take care
