How Do I Get a Shortened Google Review URL from Google Business Profile?

✅ Method 1: Get the Review Link from Google Business Profile (Recommended)

Google has moved most Business Profile management directly into Google Search, not a traditional dashboard menu.

Steps:

1. Go to https://business.google.com

2. Sign in with the Google account that manages the business

3. Select your business location

4. You will be redirected to manage your profile directly in Google Search

5. In the management panel, find and click Ask for reviews or Get more reviews

6. Click Share review form

Google will generate a shortened review URL, typically in this format:

g.page/r/your-unique-code

✅ This is the cleanest and most professional review link option.

🔗 Method 2: Use the Direct Review URL (Place ID Method)

If you cannot access the review link through the Google interface, you can manually generate one using your Place ID.

URL format:

https://search.google.com/local/writereview?placeid=YOUR_PLACE_ID

How to find your Place ID:

• Use Google’s Place ID Finder

• Or inspect the page source of your Google Business Profile

📱 Method 3: Use Google’s QR Code

When viewing Ask for reviews / Get more reviews, Google also provides a QR code customers can scan to leave a review.

This is ideal for:

• • Front desk signage

  • Receipts

  • In-store marketing materials
