Finding or manually creating a Google review link for service area business (SAB) listings is quite frankly a pain in the ass, that is until I came across a new Google Review tool and generating your google review link could not be easier.
Whats more, unlike some of the other tools available, it does not hack a link which breaks with Google Business updates, but sniffs out the service area businesses PlaceID and creates it like a normal local business page.
Why Google My Business does not allow their own review link generator to do this, is a little weird but that’s Google for you.
Create a Google Review Link for Service Area Business Listings
- Open your Google business listing in Maps and copy the full map URL.
- Head over to GMB Reviewmaker: gmb.reviewsmaker.com
- Select Decode Place ID.
- Paste the full Google Map page URL.
- Select Decode Place ID.
- Scroll down and get your Review Generation URLs.
This tool also extracts a ton of other useful information for service area business listings, like all business page IDs (PlaceID, CID, FID, BID) and if you want all your reviews in a single easy to read form, this tool also displays them.
