FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How accurate is this calculator?
It’s based on how Google averages ratings. Enter your current rating and number of reviews, and the calculator gives you a reliable estimate of what you need.
Why does it take so many reviews to move my rating?
Older and lower reviews still count. The more reviews you already have, the more 5-star ones you’ll need to shift your average.
Is 5 or 4.9 a good rating to aim for?
Yes. Most customers trust businesses with a 4.7 or higher. A 5 or 4.9 rating makes you stand out as one of the best in your industry.
Does this apply to other platforms like Yelp or Facebook?
No, this tool is built for Google’s system. Other platforms calculate ratings differently.
