How to ask for reviews on Google
I have been asked by a few clients how to get the link for Google Reviews so they can send to this customers. I wrote a post a bout this last year but since there is a much easier way.
Please follow the screen shot tutorial to get your Google Reviews URL:
Step 1:
go to www.google.com and look up your business name - for example 'Webby Web Design.'
You will see your listing on the right (note you must set up a listing first).
Click on 'write a review':
Step 2:
A pop up window will appear. you might be asked to login.
Copy the long URL as highlighted below.
mine for example is: https://www.google.com.au/search?source=hp&ei=0JSEW4jvBYvl-Aa50ZeQBg&q=webby+web+design&oq=webby+web+design&gs_l=psy-ab.3..0j0i22i30k1j38.1488.4409.0.4585.17.14.0.0.0.0.313.1814.0j1j6j1.8.0....0...1c.1.64.psy-ab..9.8.1813.0..0i131k1j0i10k1.0.Heb-_kGrpyc#lrd=0x6ad66d0a07ca223b:0xab4f55033f474476,3,,,
Step 3:
Shorten the URL: go to https://goo.gl/ and add the long URL, a short URL will be produced for you to use. My for example is: https://goo.gl/L9JQaq
Step 4:
Test this by sending first to someone you know or testing in an incognito browser session.
The link should look like this with a pop up asking to login or already signed in if the recipient is logged in from their browser.
