Reviews drive UK buying decisions.
What works

- Showing reviews on your site
Rules
UK consumer law bans fake reviews and concealed incentivised reviews.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Copying competitors instead of testing your own offers
- Ignoring negative keywords and search term reports
- Sending paid traffic to the homepage instead of a focused landing page
- Letting the agency own your ad accounts
Quick checklist before you start
- A follow-up process for every enquiry
- Conversion tracking tested end to end
- Weekly review of results and search terms
- Clear goal and budget for the next three months
- Accounts and data in your business name
Key takeaway
How UK businesses can collect and use reviews on Trustpilot and Google: inviting customers, replying, and following CMA rules on fake reviews. Start with one clear goal, measure results from day one and keep accounts and data in your own name, so you stay in control whatever partner you work with.
