The problem with that Chuck is that Google is aware of the locations of the reviews. It wont do you much good getting reviews all over the country. Do it the hard way: give away free extras to bribe yoyr customers to write the review. Make sure its written before you drive away or I guarantee 99out of 100 times they'll bail out once they go through the pocess

Never thought of that. But, it seems that people who know you or your work ethics should still be able to give reviews? Half my customers here in Florida are now back up North.

At worst, the reviews will be there for potential customers to read?

Most past customers have bailed who said they were thrilled with my work and promiced a review.

Maybe I can bribe them with "5% discount next time, if you do a review this week and I put you in my file of customers who gave me reviews"?

Chuck you have to sit down with the customer, create them a Google account, then find your site on Google Places. Its sounds easier than it is. Ive had people who claimed how smart and computer savvy they were not able to navigate through it. Its worth every cent of time. Google likes a steady stream of reviews. 8 reviews in one day will not help you. If you try to fool Google you will get burned. Go for 1 per week from here on in.

OK I will take your advice. You sound like you know what you are talking about and I most certainly don't.

Many of us know how to start up a free ad, but don't know how to handle it from that day on and I am #1. hmm

Thanks for looking out for me! biggrin

Good advice Ed,
Apparently Google also does not like it
When people 'trade' positive reviews.
