Share Your Ratings & Reviews on Google Maps

by Jim Berkowitz on August 7, 2007

 Share Your Ratings & Reviews on Google Maps Yup, that’s right! Now that anyone can post their thoughts about their experiences with a business on Google Maps, creating great impressions with customers every time has become more important then ever.

And who will bother to post their thoughts on Google Maps? Not someone who gets what they expect, maybe someone who was extremely pleased, but definately someone who is treated very poorly. Now people who are mistreated don’t even have to set up a blog to rant, they can just post their rant right on your business’s Google Maps address pin.

Here’s the scoop from Google’s Lat Long Blog:

Google Maps has offered a collection of reviews assembled from some of the finest sources on the web for some time, but now we’re augmenting those with reviews from an even better source: you — and, we hope, millions of other opinionated Google users.


Search for your favorite places and click on the “More Info” link. From there, click on “Write a Review” to start giving your two cents.

Don’t forget that Google Maps indexes a tremendous variety of businesses, and in a number of countries. Tell the world all about your favorite (or least favorite) doctors and dentists, hotels, bakeries, hardware stores, salons, pet spas, auto mechanics, plumbers, and more.

Give it a try to make your opinions known and discover new favorites.
