Google Review Link Generator
Create a short, direct link that opens the “write a review” box for your Google Business Profile — so customers can leave a review in one tap instead of hunting for the button. Free, no signup.
Don’t know it? Find it with Google’s free Place ID Finder (search your business, copy the ID). You can also paste a URL that contains the ID — we’ll pull it out.
This link opens the “write a review” box for your business directly — skip the search step so more customers finish leaving a review.
Why a direct review link gets you more reviews
Most customers who intend to leave a review never finish. They have to open Google, type your business name, pick the right listing, scroll, find “write a review,” sign in — and somewhere along that path they give up. A direct review link removes every one of those steps: one click (or one scan) drops them straight into the rating box. That reduction in friction is one of the highest-leverage things you can do to increase review volume.
How to find your Place ID
- 1. Open Google’s free Place ID Finder (linked in the tool above).
- 2. Search your business name and address, then click your pin on the map.
- 3. Copy the Place ID shown in the info box and paste it above.
Your Place ID never changes, so you only need to do this once. Save the link somewhere handy — you’ll reuse it everywhere.
Where to use your review link
Put it in review-request texts and emails, your email signature, receipts, thank-you pages, and social bios. For in-person moments, turn it into a scannable code with the Google review QR code generator. And to send it automatically to every customer at the right time, Tailwind can automate the review request by text and email.
Frequently asked questions
- How do I create a direct Google review link?
- Find your Google Place ID (use Google’s free Place ID Finder), paste it into the tool, and it builds a link of the form search.google.com/local/writereview?placeid=YOUR_ID. That link opens the review box for your business straight away.
- How do I find my Place ID?
- Open Google’s Place ID Finder, search for your business name and address, and copy the ID shown on the map pin. You can also paste a URL that contains the ID and this tool will extract it.
- Why not just share my Google Maps listing?
- A Maps listing makes customers hunt for the review button. A direct review link drops them straight into the “rate and review” box, which removes friction and measurably increases the number of reviews you collect.
- Is this the same as a review QR code?
- They work together. This tool builds the link; the QR code generator turns that link into something customers can scan from a card, receipt or sign. Generate the link here, then create the QR code.
