Google reviews - benefits

Postby germainebull » 01 Oct 2016, 08:02

I recently made my first three Google reviews of local businesses I'd interacted with. A Google support rep. subsequently contacted me and informed that I could earn rewards if I continue giving such reviews.
Is this factual? Have you benefited in any way from giving Google reviews?

I haven't personally, but it sounds like a wonderful idea. Why not put your shoulder to the wheel and judge for yourself, then you can write a review of Google reviews from your perspective.

You can access the Google review links on specific product pages. I cannot thus offer a url link.

How about giving us a link to one as an example so we know what to look for?

I think you should take up on that offer from Google, as you have nothing to loose since you already did the reviews anyway. If you can make some money doing it, great, if not, you can stop!

I would like to read your reviews too :)

Was it really a Google rep though? As a company Google should always remain neutral when it comes to reviewers and companies. They are merely the middle man, and I can't imagine they would contact people randomly, especially after only a few reviews.

Sounds like a potential scam to me to get personal details.

It looks like there is a rewards program, if you become a Local Guide with Google Maps. Maybe it was an invitation to become a guide.

https://www.google.com/local/guides/

If that's not it, please give us more information about the program you mentioned to earn benefits by providing reviews.

It's not that app. I have used that app; that gives you occasional surveys and you can earn a few pence every time - but the surveys only occur once a fortnight so it takes ages to build up cash.

First time I've heard of something like this, how much money do you make per review? I'm interested in trying although it's pretty unlikely they are available in Romania.

I also got an email from Google about getting rewards by giving reviews but I have no idea of what type of rewards they are giving. I didn't do any review yet and I don't know anyone who tried it.

I just received an email with the following tips for photographers:

• Try a "Flat Lay" and set up a shot from above
• Keep your camera steady for clear photos
• Take your food outside and model it
• Clean up messy napkins and plates to take more beautiful shots


Useful to you?

How did Google come to know that you have reviewed three local businesses?
To whom should we give such reviews?
I am hearing this for the first time.

What does that mean? Are you receiving rewards for doing reviews?

Seeing this thread gave me another idea. Can we review sites on there too? We could give good reviews for sites like this one and for each other's sites.

* * Interesting. I didn't know there were "levels". If I want to share the good news about an organization or company I just give it a good shout out! :thumbup: :thumbup:

When you reach level 5, you got from Google 100 gb space for drive.
