Why Reviews Matter More Than Ever

The data shows what customers want — and how reviews drive your business forward.

97%

of consumers read reviews for local businesses

47%

won't use a business with fewer than 20 reviews

74%

only care about reviews from the last 3 months

76%

76% of "nearby" smartphone searches → visit within a day (28% purchase)

Fresh reviews create a review flywheel — more visibility, more customers, more reviews. If yours aren't fresh and frequent, you lose the "near me" customer.

Everyone Reads Reviews

97% of consumers read reviews for local businesses. If you're not getting enough reviews, you're invisible to most searchers—and 47% won't use a business with fewer than 20 reviews.

Recency Beats Age

74% only care about reviews from the last 3 months. Stale reviews signal a business that's slipped or gone quiet. Fresh, frequent reviews win the "near me" customer.

AI Is Changing Discovery

Use of ChatGPT and AI tools for local recommendations has risen sharply—AI is now a top source for where people look. Strong, recent reviews help you show up there too.
