    Hello – quick question for you. We publish thousands of business listings on our site. Basically we are working on creating a directory of “best of…” type listicles.

    We also use Google Maps APi on our site and publish the business Google reviews and ratings (see an example listing here).

    My question is, can Rank Math automatically deploy proper Google review Schema markup across all of our thousands of business listings where Google reviews and Google ratings are already published?

    Thank you and I look forward to your response.

  • Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math and bringing your concern to our attention.

    Please note that if you have a Google Business profile page with ratings and reviews already, and they are linked to your website, the reviews will eventually show together within your website on the search results pages.

    It’s not that you can’t add the star ratings based on the GMB reviews you have on your profile, but that goes against Google guidelines and as such, it’s not recommended to do so because you could incur a manual penalty. Google guidelines also state that the reviews should be generated from users only:

    GMB

    Looking forward to helping you.

    Thank you.
