Google's Prominence ranking factor is heavily influenced by your online reviews. It's not just about star count, but also how recent, numerous, and consistent your feedback is. This section highlights the key signals Google prioritizes.
• Review Volume: The total number of reviews across all platforms, indicating business activity and customer engagement.
• Review Velocity: The rate at which new reviews are acquired, signaling ongoing relevance and fresh customer experiences.
• Review Age: The recency of your latest reviews, with older reviews having diminishing impact on Google's perception.
• Star Rating Thresholds: Subtle differences in average ratings (e.g., 4.0 vs 4.6 vs 4.8) can dramatically alter customer trust and Google visibility.
• Owner Responses: Consistent and thoughtful owner responses to reviews (both positive and negative) demonstrate engagement and care.
Customers report varying experiences depending on staff, time of day, or location, leading to unpredictable quality.
Lack of clear updates, unanswered inquiries, or conflicting information leading to customer frustration and distrust.
Excessive queues, delayed appointments, or slow service delivery leading to customer impatience and negative perceptions.
Unexpected costs, unclear pricing structures, or perceived poor value for money leading to disappointment.
These patterns create negative keyword clusters Google uses to lower ranking.
• Friendly and helpful staff
• Quick and efficient service
• High-quality products/results
• Unresponsive customer support
• Inaccurate information/misleading ads
• Technical issues or product defects
Sentiment and emotional keywords influence user behavior — the #1 real-world ranking factor.

Impact: Highlights product defects and poor post-sale support. Affects trustworthiness and conversion rates.
