Restaurants with fewer than

Post by kexej28769@nongnue »

Review counts are important, but significantly different.
How many reviews does the best restaurant have?


It's folk wisdom that any business looking to win local rankings needs to compete on local Google review counts. I agree, but am struck by the huge variation in review counts across the country and within a given pack. Consider:

The most reviews in our study کی طرف سے موصول ہوئے تھےHattie B's Hot Chicken in Nashville, TN , which came in at a total of 4,537!
Meanwhile, Park Heights Restaurant in Tupelo, MS is belgium number data a 3-pack ranking with just 72 reviews, the lowest in our data set.
35 percent of "Best" rated restaurants have between 100-499 reviews and 31 percent have between 500-999. Taken together, that's 66 percent of contenders who still have 1,000 reviews left.


A 100 reviews have only a 1 percent chance of ranking for this type of search.
In short, I don’t know how much data you’d have to analyze to find a truly reliable pattern regarding winning review counts. Consider the city of Dallas, where the #1 spot has 3,365 reviews, but spots #2 and #3 each have just over 300. Compare that to Tallahassee, where a business with 590 reviews is coming in at #1 above a competitor with twice that many. Everyone ranked in Boise has over 1,000 reviews, but no one in Bangor is even getting into the 200s.
