Ask For Customer Reviews to Help Build Page Rank
Positive reviews will help your website rankings and more often than not potential customers will call a company with some postive reviews before they will call a company with no reviews.
There are a hundreds of customer review websites on the web for all types of products and services. Customers can write a review on your Google Local, Bing, Yahoo business sites that we created. There plenty of others like Yelp and the BBB.
People ofen rely on the reviews to determine if they want to use the product or service and unfortunatly if left to chance, only disatisfied customers will write a review and it’s usually negative.
The best way to build a great set of reviews is to ask your customers for them. If you do a great job, most likely you’ll receive positive reviews.
If you want to look for more industry specific review sites that you may want to be concered with, search google for the following:
1) Search for your company and/or it’s product names add “reviews” to the search phrase.
2) Do the same for your competitors
3) Search for generic product and services with the word “reviews”
How to get your customers or clients to create a review:
1) Send a message out to your recent customers asking for them to post a review. If they were not happy with your product or service, provide your phone number so you can correct the problem (try to avoid negative reviews).
2) Create and automated message for new customers that goes out a week or two after they received your product or service.
3) Offer them a discount on their next purchase if they bring in proof of a review. It will probably be a positive one since they won’t want to show you a negative review. Make sure it doesn’t cross the ethical line of paying for reviews.
4) Include a list of the sites where you would like the review posted with simple step by step instructions on how to post the review.
