About reviews and SEO 

Search engines are built to help searchers find the content they’re looking for. To do this, search engine algorithms consider myriad factors to determine which sites are trustworthy and relevant. Collecting and featuring customer reviews on your site can help with many of these factors, including:  

• Keywords
  Reviews are keyword-rich, which helps search engines know what queries to rank your pages for.
• Internal linking
  Highlighting reviews across your site creates a network of links among your site pages.
• Content recency
  Because customers regularly submit new reviews, your content is continually updated. 
• Reputation
  A history of primarily positive reviews demonstrates the legitimacy of your business, 

Do negative reviews hurt my SEO? 

The short answer: no. All businesses will receive at least a small percentage of negative reviews. In fact, a smattering of negative reviews sprinkled among many glowing, positive reviews helps visitors feel assured that your reviews are legitimate. 

Search engines won’t penalize you for a handful of poor reviews. Instead, they’ll look at the overall themes and sentiment of your reviews over time, and use that to determine your site’s trustworthiness.
