How to Share a Google Review Link with Customers
For service providers looking to collect more google reviews, sharing the google review link directly with customers is simple and effective. This guide explains how to find, customize, and distribute your Google review link to encourage authentic feedback.
Step 1: Get Your Google Review Link
Method 1: Via Google Business Profile Manager
-
Sign in to your Google Business Profile at google.com/business.
-
On the home dashboard, locate the “Get more reviews” card.
-
Click “Share review form”, and a popup will show your unique review link.

-
Use Google’s Place ID Finder tool to get your business’s Place ID.
-
Append it to:
https://search.google.com/local/writereview?placeid=YOUR_PLACE_ID -
This generates a direct review link usable without logging into Google Business Profile.
Step 2: Customize Your Link (Optional)
-
Google links can be long and complex.
-
Use URL shorteners like bit.ly to create short, memorable links.

For brands with websites, create branded redirects (e.g., yoursite.com/review) that forward to your Google review page.

Include in thank you emails and order confirmation messages.

Send via SMS or WhatsApp post-service or sale.

Politely ask customers to leave honest reviews by explaining how their feedback helps your business.

Send reminders if reviews aren’t submitted within a week.
-
Offer clear instructions alongside the link to simplify the process.
