Create Your Google Review Link
What is a Google Place ID?
You can find your Place ID on Google Maps Web Services documentation.
A Google Place ID is a textual identifier that uniquely identifies a place in Google Maps. The length of the identifier may vary (there is no maximum length for Place IDs).

According to Google Maps data, your Place ID is where your business lives on the web. Your Google Place ID is also tied directly to your Google Business account. This makes it easy to link customers to your Google reviews page.
Creating a Google Review Link with Your Place ID
Go to the Place ID Tool.
Go to Google Maps Platform's Place ID Tool for developers.
Search for your business name.
On the Place ID page, you will see a look-up tool and a search bar. The search bar will have the option to “Enter a location”. Click here and type in your business name.
Click on your business name.
The results appearing from your search should be pretty straightforward. A drop-down box will pop up, listing all the relevant and closely related business names. Find your business and click on the name.
Tip: If your business name isn’t showing up here, double-check to see if you have listed your business on Google yet. Listing a business on Google increases its visibility, both on Google Maps and general Google search results.
Copy Your Unique Place ID.
As soon as you click on your business name, the map should refresh and identify your business location. Hover your mouse over the red location marker and you will see a box pop up with your business name, address, and your unique Place ID.
Copy the Place ID (just the code minus the Place ID descriptive tag) and keep it ready for the next step.
Paste your Place ID into our easy-to-use Google Review Link Generator.
Take advantage of our free tool that will generate your Google review link. Simply past the Place ID you have copied into the blank and click the "Generate Google Review Link" button.
