I finally got 5 reviews on my Google ranking, all of them 5 star reviews, so Google will now display my star ranking when someone searches for a plumber and I am one of the results.
Problem is that Google shows a 4.8 star rating even though all my reviews are 5 star.
I've done a bit of research and it turns out that the Google algorithm or whatever it is anticipates that at some point I will get a bad review and includes that in the calculation. What a load of bobbins...
So if you currently don't have enough reviews for your star rating to show on web searches, be warned that when you do it might not be as good as you'd think.
