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!

Does content revealed by a 'show more' button get crawled by Google?
I have a div on my website with around 500 words of unique content in, automatically when the page is first visited the div has a fixed height of 100px, showing a couple of hundred words and fading out to white, with a show more button, which when clicked, increases the height to show the full content. My question is, does Google crawl the content in that div when it renders the page? Or disregard it? Its all in the source code. Or worse, do they consider this cloaking or hidden content? It is only there to make the site more useable for customers, so i don't want to get penalised for it. Cheers

My website (non-adult) is not appearing in Google search results when i have safe search settings on. How can i fix this?
Hi, I have this issue where my website does not appear in Google search results when i have the safe search settings on. If i turn the safe search settings off, my site appears no problem. I'm guessing Google is categorizing my website as adult, which it definitely is not. Has anyone had this issue before? Or does anyone know how to resolve this issue? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

Does Google crawl the pages which are generated via the site's search box queries?
For example, if I search for an 'x' item in a site's search box and if the site displays a list of results based on the query, would that page be crawled? I am asking this question because this would be a URL that is non existent on the site and hence am confused as to whether Google bots would be able to find it.

Posing QU's on Google Variables "aclk", "gclid" "cd", "/aclk" "/search", "/url" etc
I've been doing a bit of stats research prompted by read the recent ranking blog http://www.seomoz.org/blog/gettings-rankings-into-ga-using-custom-variables There are a few things that have come up in my research that I'd like to clear up. The below analysis has been done on my "conversions". 1/. What does "/aclk" mean in the Referrer URL? I have noticed a strong correlation between this and "gclid" in the landing page variable. Does it mean "ad click" ?? Although they seem to "closely" correlate they don't exactly, so when I have /aclk in the referrer Url MOSTLY I have gclid in the landing page URL. BUT not always, and the same applies vice versa. It's pretty vital that I know what is the best way to monitor adwords PPC, so what is the best variable to go on? - Currently I am using "gclid", but I have about 25% extra referral URL's with /aclk in that dont have "gclid" in - so am I underestimating my number of PPC conversions? 2/. The use of the variable "cd" is great, but it is not always present. I have noticed that 99% of my google "Referrer URL's" either start with:
