To get Google reviews on search results, you need to:
- Claim and verify your Google Business Profile. This is a free listing that allows you to manage your business information on Google Search and Maps.
- Encourage customers to leave reviews. You can do this by adding a link to your Google Business Profile to your website, email signature, and social media pages. You can also ask customers for reviews in person or over the phone.
- Respond to all reviews, both positive and negative. This shows that you value customer feedback and are committed to providing a good experience.

Google displays reviews in search results through Google My Business (GMB) listings. If you have a business, you can create and manage your Google My Business profile to showcase your reviews and ratings in search results. Here's how you can do it:
Create or Claim your Google My Business Listing: If you haven't already, go to the Google My Business website (https://www.google.com/business/) and create a listing for your business. If your business already exists on Google Maps, you'll need to claim and verify ownership.
Optimize your Google My Business Profile: Fill in all the necessary details, such as business name, address, phone number, website, business hours, and category. Add high-quality images of your business, products, or services. Make sure your profile is complete and accurate.
Encourage Customers to Leave Reviews: Provide excellent products or services and encourage your satisfied customers to leave reviews on your Google My Business listing. The more positive reviews you have, the better your chances of standing out in search results.
Respond to Reviews: Engage with your customers by responding to their reviews, both positive and negative. This shows that you value their feedback and are actively involved in managing your business.
Keep Information Up-to-date: Regularly update your business information, especially if you have changes in operating hours, location, or contact details.
Improve Local SEO: Local Search Engine Optimization (SEO) can help improve your business's visibility in local search results. Use relevant keywords in your business description and posts.
Get Citations and Backlinks: Encourage other websites to mention your business name, address, and phone number (NAP) accurately and consistently. These citations and backlinks can help improve your local search presence.
Please note that Google's search algorithms and features may change over time, so it's essential to stay updated with the latest guidelines and recommendations from Google regarding Google My Business and reviews in search results. To ensure you have the most current information, visit the official Google My Business website and the Google Support Center.

To get Google reviews to appear in search results, you need to follow a few key steps. Google reviews can have a significant impact on your online reputation and visibility, so it's important to optimize your presence. Here's how you can achieve this:
Create a Google My Business (GMB) listing: Start by creating a GMB listing for your business. Provide accurate and detailed information about your business, such as the address, phone number, website, and hours of operation. Verify your listing to gain access to additional features.
Encourage customers to leave reviews: Actively encourage your customers to leave reviews on your Google My Business profile. You can do this by asking them in person, including a call-to-action on receipts, or sending follow-up emails after a purchase. Make it easy for them to leave reviews by providing a direct link to your GMB profile.
Provide excellent customer service: Deliver exceptional customer service to increase the likelihood of positive reviews. Satisfied customers are more likely to leave positive feedback, which can enhance your reputation and attract potential customers.
Monitor and respond to reviews: Regularly monitor the reviews on your Google My Business profile. Respond promptly and professionally to both positive and negative reviews. Engaging with reviewers shows that you value their feedback and demonstrates your commitment to customer satisfaction.
We have done the same procedure on our website Prism Digital and with client's websites and these steps played a key role.

@remcoz Sure, Remco! The stars you see in organic search results are known as Rich Snippets. They are generated by Google from structured data or Schema markup that is added to your website's code. This markup provides additional details about the data on your website, including customer reviews and ratings.
To get these star ratings to appear in organic search results, you need to implement the correct Schema markup on your website. This typically involves adding specific HTML tags to your website's code to provide more information about your content to search engines.
Once you've added the appropriate Schema markup, Google bots will crawl your website and if they find the structured data relevant and of good quality, they may choose to display your star ratings in the search results. It's important to note that it's ultimately up to Google whether they show these ratings or not.
Given the technical nature of adding Schema markup, it might be beneficial to work with a web developer or an SEO specialist who is experienced in this area. They can help ensure that the markup is implemented correctly, which can increase your chances of getting those star ratings displayed in organic search results.
Remember, consistency and high-quality service that lead to positive reviews are just as crucial in this process. Keep up the great work and continue to provide an excellent experience for your customers. Good luck!

Filter By Category bad for seo?
Hello Everyone! I know that a single product should not have filter by color option since it will create duplicate content, and you have to use canonical tags to solve it. BUT how about sorting through products via category/brands?
On-Page Optimization | | Safxmed
Filter by category changes the URL of the General shop page (ex: hello.com/Shop/Category1022039 ). This page only displays the products within, no content/ descriptions etc unlike the original category page (ORIGINAL CATEGORY PAGE) Each of these category/brand already have their own individual pages (ex: hello.com/Shop/A). This is the page that will be optimized for content, FAQ, and ranking etc. Unlike in the url created when filtering through the categories. So technically I would have 2 URL for each Brand/Category. Would they compete with each other? What would you guys suggest. Please advise me on this. Thank You0 -
Static content pages ranking dropping all the time
Hello all. I have been working three months in my current job in the hotel industry. I have been publishing a lot of content to our website (mainly articles), which in general have been ranking well and really boosted our website traffic. The problem that I am facing, though, is the fact that our static pages' rankings are basically constantly dropping. Especially one of our main pages, which is this hotel page. I haven't been doing any real changes to the content, but the ranking (with keywords "hotelli helsinki" [Hotel in Helsinki in Finnish]) has plummeted from 13th position all the way down to 19th... What has been happening during these last three months is that we did change to a new domain and we have done all the redirections and also informed Google about this change through search console. I have also done some minor changes to the on-page content, such as changing the meta titles and descriptions as well as the page title and some of the text content to more natural ones instead of clumsy SEO texts and optimizing the images. This hasn't helped at all though and the rankings seem to steadily drop all the time. What would YOU do with this page? Maybe add more text content to the page to be more informative? All tips would be highly appreciated.

Link Building | | OVLG0 -
Start a new site to get out of Google penalties?
Hey Moz, I have several questions in regards to whether I should a start a new second site to save my online presence after a series of Google penalties. The main questions being: Is this the best way to spend my time/resources? If I’m forced to jump my company over to the new site can Google see that and transfer the penalty? I plan on all new content (no link redirect, no dup content) so do I need to kill the original site? Are there any Pro’s/cons I am missing? Summary of my situation: Looking at analytics it appears I was hit with both Penguin 2.0 and 2.1, each cutting my traffic in half, despite a link remediation campaign in the summer of 2013. There was a manual penalty also imposed on the site in the fall of 2013, which was released in early 2014. With Penguin 3.0’s release at the end of 2014, the site saw a slight uptick in organic traffic, improving from essentially nothing to next to nothing. Most of the site’s issues revolved around cheap $5 links from India in the 2006-09 time frame. This link building was abandoned, and replaced with nothing but “letting them happen naturally” from 2010 through the 2013 penalties. Since 2013 we have done a small amount of quality articles on a monthly basis to promote the site, social media, and continuous link remediation. In addition the whole site has been redesigned, optimized for speed/mobile, secured, and completely rewritten. Given all of this, the site has really only recovered to page 2 and 3 of the SERPs for our key words. Even after a highly circulated piece appeared on an Authority site (97 DA) a few months ago there was zero movement. It appears we have an anvil tied around our leg until Penguin 4.0. With all of the above, and no sign of when the next penguin will be released, I ask, is it time to start investing in a new site? With no movement in 2.5 years, it’s impossible to know where my current site stands, so I don’t know what else I can do to improve it. I am considering slowly building a new site that is a high quality informational site. My thought process is it will take a year for a new site to gain any traction with Google. If by that time my main site has not recovered, I can jump to that new site, add a commercial component, and use it as a life boat for my company. If I have recovered, then I have a future asset. Thanks in advance!

Why is Google Ranking the Umbrella Category Page when Searching for Sub-Categories Within that Umbrella Category?
I have an e-commerce client who sells shoes. There is a main page for "Kids" shoes, and then right under it on the top-navigation bar there is a link to "Boys Shoes" and "Girls Shoes." All 3 of these links are on the same level - 1 click off the home page. (And linked to from every page on the website via the top nav bar). All 3 are perfectly optimized for their targeted term. However, when you search for "boys shoes" or "girls shoes" + the brand, the "Kids" page is the one that shows up in the #1 position. There are sitelinks beneath the listing pointing to "Girls" and "Boys." All the other results in Google are resellers of the "brand + girls" or "brand + boys" shoes. So our listing is the only one that's "brand + kids shoes." Our "boys" shoes page and "girls" shoes page don't even rank on the 1st page for "brand + boys shoes" or "brand + girls shoes." The only real difference is that "kids shoes" contains both girls and boys shoes on the page, and then "boys" obviously contains boys' shoes only, "girls" contains girls' shoes only. So in that sense there is more content on the "kids" page. So my question is - WHY is the kids page outranking the boys/girls page? How can we make the boys/girls pages be the ones that show up when people specifically search for boys/girls shoes?

Most user friendly review sites for Google Shopping
Hello all, Have multiple ecommerce projects going right now and thought I'd throw this one out there. We use follow up emails to try to encourage reviews for customers to all of our ecommerce stores, but find that many of them are pretty tedious as far as registering to write reviews and requiring a lot of information to get started. We primarily use Reseller Ratings and Trustpilot, but were interested if anyone had better luck using some different sites that Google also crawls for review data. Any input is appreciated. Thanks.
