In this episode, Scott breaks down one of the biggest myths in local marketing: that all you need to rank higher on Google is more 5-star reviews.

 

Spoiler alert: It’s not true.

 

Scott shares the results of recent tests run with real landscaping businesses—and reveals how some are outranking competitors with double (or triple!) the number of reviews by simply posting updates and photos consistently.

 

You’ll learn:

  1. Why reviews alone won’t boost your Google ranking

  2. The posting strategy that sends the right “signals” to Google

  3. What types of photos and updates move the needle the most

  4. How to turn your job site into free SEO fuel

  5. The minimum number of reviews you do need before this works

 

Plus, Scott explains how to set up a simple weekly routine that builds trust with Google and potential customers—without hiring an SEO agency or begging for reviews.
