Google updates your reviews: Author's name and text response is required

Google has updated its reviews on reviews, recommending that you only take ratings that include text response and author name. This change aims to make reviews more useful and transparent to users.

“We recommend that you only accept ratings and reviews accompanied by a comment to the author's response and name, as this approach can help your users understand the context of this rating."

🚀 In practice, this may mean, for example, that for an online store that uses a feedback system, it will be important to introduce requirements such as the obligation to enter a name and text feedback so that the rating can be displayed in the results of Google search.

• 📌 The reviews should be visible on the page: Users should quickly find the contents of the mark marked.
• 📌 The context is important: the inclusion of text comments on the ratings helps users understand "why" a certain score.
• 📌 Real names of the authors: the names of reviewers must be real (not advertising phrases) and not exceed 100 characters, otherwise the response will not be eligible to reflect in rich results.
