Why These Attributes Matter
Google's Gemini AI (Ask Maps) ranks businesses by matching review content to user searches. Generic reviews like "Lori was great!" get skipped. Reviews mentioning service type + city + outcome get surfaced.
- ServiceLoan type matters. When someone asks Gemini "best refinance lender in Gilbert," it scans reviews for the words "refinance" and "Gilbert." If your reviews don't say it, you don't rank.
- CityLocation keywords. Gemini matches reviews to local searches. A review that says "helped us buy our home in Queen Creek" ranks for Queen Creek searches โ even if your address is elsewhere.
- OutcomeResult language. "Closed on time," "got a great rate," "first-time buyer" โ these are the keywords Gemini matches to people searching with those goals in mind.
Stay Compliant โ Avoid These Mistakes
Google's review policies are strict, and violations can get reviews removed or your Business Profile suspended. These rules apply to every review request you send.
- Never offer incentives for reviews โ no discounts, gift cards, raffles, or freebies in exchange for a review.
- Never ask only happy clients while filtering out unhappy ones (this is "review gating" and is prohibited).
- Never write or edit a customer's review for them, or supply specific language to copy/paste.
- Never ask customers to mention employee names by request โ this is a 2026 policy change.
- Never solicit reviews in bulk from a single IP address or location (e.g., kiosks or in-office tablets in some cases).
- Never post fake reviews or have friends/family post reviews on your behalf.
