We did not sample Burlington — all 1,958 listings were checked, and each fault was counted on the page itself rather than estimated from a tool.

The moment matters more than the wording

The time to ask is when the work has just been finished and the customer is pleased. A week later that moment has gone. We set the ask up so it happens then, by whatever route that customer already uses.

Nothing bought, nothing screened

We do not buy reviews and we do not filter out the customers likely to be unhappy before asking. Both are against Google policy, both are detectable in the pattern, and the listing is usually worth more than the website.

What a realistic target looks like in Burlington

Getting past 38 puts you in the upper half of this market. Getting past 127 puts you in the top quarter. Catching the 30,039 at the top took that business years and is not a first-year target.

Questions

Asked often.

How many Google reviews do I need in Burlington?

The median across 1,958 Burlington businesses is 38; the top quarter is past 127. Those numbers are not comparable between trades — a count that is exceptional for an accountant is unremarkable for a restaurant.

Does a 5.0 rating look fake?

Above about fifty reviews, a perfect score starts to read as filtered. 944 businesses in Burlington already hold 4.9 or better, so a high rating is table stakes here rather than a differentiator.

you have a problem.

Most people asking about a rebuild do not need one. The free check opens your site, looks at how it behaves on a phone, whether it is secure and how old the page is, and tells you which of those apply to you.
