  • Choose a star rating: Select the number of stars (1 to 5) that best reflects your experience.

  • You'll need to be signed into an email account to leave a review. Gmail or other email.


*No Gmail Here's How:

"Create account".


Opt to use an existing email: When presented with options, choose "Use my current email address instead".


Enter your non-Gmail email and create a password: Provide your existing email address (like Yahoo or Hotmail) and create a password for accessing Google with that account.


Verify your email: Google will send a verification code to the email address you provided. Enter this code to confirm.



5. Post your review

  • Click or tap the "Post" or "Submit" button to publish your review.  And your done! After a few hours your review should appear after Google approves your review.


Thank you so much! Here's how your reviews help businesses:


Google Business reviews are valuable for business owners as they build trust, enhance online visibility, and provide valuable feedback. Positive reviews act as social proof, influencing potential customers and boosting a business's reputation. They also play a role in improving local SEO, leading to higher rankings in search results and increased website traffic.
