  1. Your online reputation is front and center in search — always
  2. Whether you like it or not, your online reviews and star ratings show up in search results. It’s crucial that your business takes control of its online reputation to to ensure that your reviews match the quality of service you provide.
  3. Improves your website’s search rankings. Positive online reviews and good star ratings will boost your site’s search rankings, and help new customers easily find you over the competition.
