Open Google's Place ID Finder

Click the 'Open Google Place ID Finder' button in the generator above. It opens Google's official tool in a new tab — no account or sign-up required.

Search for your business

Type your business name and city into the search box. Google will show matching results — select yours from the dropdown. Your Place ID appears immediately below the map.

Alternatively: paste your Google Maps URL directly

If you already have your Google Maps listing open in your browser, you can copy the full URL from the address bar and paste it directly. The generator will extract your Place ID automatically. Look for a URL starting with google.com/maps/place/

Why It Matters

Why a direct link gets you far more reviews

Most businesses that ask for reviews never get them — not because customers don't want to leave one, but because the process is too complicated.

70%

Drop-off without a direct link

70% of customers who intend to leave a review give up when they have to search for the business manually. A direct link eliminates that friction entirely.

More reviews with a direct link

Businesses that send a direct review link in follow-up messages collect up to 3 times more reviews than those who just ask verbally or with a generic request.

2 sec

To open the review form

A direct link takes the customer straight to the review writing form — no searching, no clicking around. The easier it is, the more reviews you get.

Which link should you use?

Direct write-review link

Recommended
search.google.com/local/writereview?placeid=...

Opens straight to the review form. Best for email, SMS, and anywhere you want immediate action.

Google Maps listing link

google.com/maps/place/?q=place_id:...

Opens your full Google Maps listing. Best for your website or anywhere you want customers to see your profile first.

Where to Use It

6 places to share your Google review link

The more places you share your link, the more reviews you collect. Here are the six channels that convert best.

Post-service email

Send the link in an automated follow-up email 24 hours after completing a job. This is the single highest-converting channel for review collection.

SMS campaigns

Text messages have a 98% open rate. A short review link in an SMS sent right after a positive interaction drives more reviews than almost any other method.

Email signature

Add a subtle 'Leave us a Google review' link to every email you send. Passive collection from hundreds of emails per month adds up fast.

Website CTA button

Add a 'Review us on Google' button to your homepage, contact page, or thank-you pages. Visitors who had a great experience are happy to leave one.

QR code (print)

Convert this link to a QR code and print it on receipts, packaging, or signage. Use our free QR Code Generator tool to create one instantly.

WhatsApp & social DMs

If you communicate with customers on WhatsApp or social media, a direct message with the review link right after a purchase converts extremely well.

Best Practices

Tips for getting more reviews from your link

Having a link is step one. Getting customers to actually use it takes a bit of strategy. Here is what works.

1

Ask at the right moment

Timing matters more than almost anything else. The best moment to ask is immediately after delivering a great result — when the customer's satisfaction is highest. Waiting even a day cuts response rates significantly.

2

Keep the message short

A long, elaborate review request feels like work. The most effective messages are 2–3 sentences: acknowledge the interaction, ask for a review, and include the link. Nothing else.

3

Personalise if you can

Using the customer's name and referencing their specific order or project makes the request feel genuine rather than automated — even if it is automated. Most email and SMS tools support merge tags for this.

4

Never incentivise reviews

Offering discounts or gifts in exchange for reviews violates Google's policies and can result in your listing being penalised. Ask genuinely, let the reviews be honest.
