Using Amazon Product Reviews on my Website
-
Does anyone know if I can use Amazon Reviews for products that I put on Amazon?
I "own" the listing on Amazon because we are the exclusive manufacturers of this product so the review is only referring to products that were sold through our company.
Thanks,

In short, you don't own those reviews even though they are about your product. The reviews were left on Amazon.com, and are therefore the property of Amazon.com.

I don't think I was clear in my question. I want to take the reviews that I have received for my products via Amazon and start populating the reviews on our website for those specific products.
So far on my website I don't have any reviews yet and I would love to get a headstart!
I can't simply cut and paste the reviews that my products have garnered on Amazon?

It appears Mike has given you the answer, but I would offer a suggestion. Even though you are selling it through Amazon, why don't you put review schema on your site so that you begin to gather reviews and assist yourself. At least that way, you may be able to rank along with Amazon for your product as opposed to being always at their service.
Obviously, I do not know your whole business model, but review schema/markup is not difficult at all and you might find it much more advantageous than an Amazon iframe.

Kind of, but only for 24 hours via an iframe: "The reviews response group returns the URL to an iframe that contains customer reviews. You can embed the iframe on any web page to display the response content. Only the iframe URL is returned in the request content." - Product Advertising API
Hope this helps.

NAP: Best practices on your website?
My store currently has 2 location and will soon have 3. I was wondering what the best practice for listing your address information on a website. I currently have all 3 listings on one page, but would like to have a separate page for each location (to include managers and specific location info). My question is what is the best practice for listing locations on a website (for SEO)? Should I have a landing page with all 3 and their NAP info then have a link to the specific page with the same NAP info. Would having that info twice be a negative?

Is getting listed on local directories useful for an online web site?
I recently came across Yext. Seems like a convenient service to get listed on local directories. Why I thought this would be useful are the backlinks, not necessary local searches. Are link juice good enough to justify spending the time to get listed? And what about getting listed on BBB.org?

Google only posting some reviews?
A doctor of mine recently complained that his patient went on to his Google+ Local listing and submitted a review, but it never showed up. The patient can see it on his own page, but it's not viewable publicly. Any ideas or posts you've seen about this? Thanks! Tom

Amazon Store Name Change - Impact on Google Shopping
For a site ranking on page 1 in Google Shopping Results for multiple products, they're thinking of changing their store name to rebrand themselves and their website. They currently have items appearing on page 1 from their stores on ebay, Amazon, buy.com, sears, etc. Does anybody know if changing their brand name on these stores will impact their results on Google Shopping? Thanks, Mark
