I just have no idea why this would be happening. Maybe check back tomorrow and see if your reviews have appeared? Sorry not to be of more help on this. Gloria-

I'm trying to write a review of a restaurant on Google, I'm already signed up. When I hit the SAVE Button, nothing happens. The button itself sort of moves or shifts a bit when I click on it, but nothing else happens. I do not see any type of error message, I stay on the same page, the review is never posted. I have been spending HOURS online trying to figure this out. Hope to find a workable reply. Thank you. I’m not having any other problems online, submitting forms, or anything.

When the google business rating and popularity grows it will collapse the business models of those other rating sites such as TripAdvisor etc,.

Given Googles monopolistic nature it should be a major source of worry for those businesses. When the google business rating and popularity grows it will collapse the business models of those other rating sites such as TripAdvisor etc,.

Nothing goes live without our sign off, and we have achieved a national trading standards award from the British Government. It may take a little longer but we believe in reviews. Many thanks John I so agree with all of the above and I and my business partner personally review every piece of feedback on our site.

If you ever stop by again, I'm not sure if the agreement between Google and its review sources is monetary, if that's what you mean. It's certainly a sign of major trust for those sources that Google is using their content. Shycon Design - I'm glad you found this article useful. Yes, Google reviews are a great thing to start exploring. They are very easy to use and fun to read! Thanks so much for the kind comment and for taking the time to say hello. Miriam Rodrigo -
