There are many reasons why a review on Google My Business will not be published. Here are 12 of the most common reasons:

  1. The notice is too short or does not contain enough information.
  2. The notice contains incorrect or misleading information about the company.
  3. The notice contains vulgar or offensive language.
  4. The opinion is linked to a personal experience that does not directly concern the company.
  5. The notice contains commercial or promotional information.
  6. The notice relates to a claim or complaint to be handled by the company in question.
  7. The notice was posted by an employee or owner of the company.
  8. The notice was posted by one of the company’s competitors.
  9. The review was posted by a user who had no personal experience with the company.
  10. The notice has been posted several times by the same person.
  11. The notice was posted from an account that had been flagged for fraudulent activity.
  12. The review was posted from an account that was recently created and does not have enough history to be considered reliable.

It’s important to note that these reasons are not exhaustive, and that Google may refuse to publish a review for other reasons. It’s also important to remember that reviews are a way for customers to share their experiences with a company, not a way for companies to promote their products or services.

Online reviews have become a crucial element for companies, enabling consumers to form an opinion about the quality of the services and products offered by a company. That’s why companies strive to collect as many positive reviews as possible, but sometimes reviews are not published.

It’s important to understand the reasons for not publishing a review on Google My Business, as this can have serious consequences for a company’s reputation. It is therefore essential to respect the rules laid down by Google, in order to avoid any errors that could cause irreparable damage to a company’s image.

It’s important to note that the review must be authentic, it must reflect a real experience and at least one visit to the establishment, and not necessarily a purchase (an important detail explained in our method!).
