When I was taking a walk in the lake near my house yesterday, I turned on my GPS and wrote down a Google Maps review. I also attached a picture. It’s been approximately 24 hours since the walk. I just checked and it shows right in my contribution. I can see my contribution while I was logged out.
While my post wasn’t being posted, I also read a lot of other people’s inquiries. As advised, I deleted the photo and wrote the review again, deleted the special characters, and with the help of chatGPT, I corrected all the sentences in question. I re-read the instructions and checked if there were any violations. Oh, I also asked them to review my post as a report of the problem. A few days ago, I didn’t know which one would be posted first, so I revised and reposted it in different ways.
Still, it doesn’t get posted. Some posts haven’t been posted for 9 days. I feel like my reviews will never be posted. Would it be faster to just give up? I just wanted to write Google’s reviews faithfully, because it was Google that helped me out overseas. I’m losing my energy.
Hi @JOODY
I just chek your profile on Google maps, your 17 reviews already published within a week, that is really a good contribution.
However, your review may not be showing publicly if you have included any of this: an email address, a URL or dollar or pound signs, or maybe another icon or symbol or special characters “&” “@” etc, and also other reasons that we don’t know. Please check your review and remove it and let’s see if it publish; otherwise any or some of the words you used are Prohibited and restricted content.
Moreover, sometimes Google also flag genuine review as spam due to upgradation of Google Algorithm. So it is better to delete the review and rewrite it after later not at the same time.
Thank you so much for your advice. However, my unposted reviews don’t contain any special characters or symbols. (Rather, reviews with + are posted) So I don’t know what the problem is.
A few hours ago, I reworked and saved the words or sentences in the reviews. I’m really thinking if this doesn’t work, I’ll just have to wait indefinitely. I’d rather ask a person to review the problems of the review themselves. I don’t need to know what the problem is. It would be nice if someone could review it and approve it.
Constantly editing comments is considered spam. Even if you edit your comment once, it may still be considered spam. My advice is to make a good change when editing your comment.
Fill out the form for your unpublished comments. You only need to fill out the form once. Look at the date of your unpublished comments and request a review accordingly. Do not edit comments again after they are published.
Oh, no… I’ve done everything the customer center and forum advised me to find the problem. If it still doesn’t get posted, my review is spammed as you said. I wrote 30 reviews. Half of them might be spammed…
Thank you for your advice.
Sometimes the system will rate your comment as spam and you won’t be able to publish it even if you edit it for a certain period of time. This is for a certain period of time. This is for comments reported by business owners and when you edit them, they will be considered spam.
After a period of time, the review will not be considered spam and you will be able to edit and publish it again, but I don’t know how many days this period is. If your review is considered spam, as it is during this period, the Google support team will not publish the review. You can try to edit and publish the review every few months.
If you fill out the form, you will be notified via email if there are any restrictions on your account and your unpublished comments will be published if they comply with the rules. If your published comment is not published after you edit it, you can submit a daily request for that comment using the same form and you will receive a result within 6-7 hours. You will not be sent an email for your daily form request.
As you advised, I filled out the form and submitted it. It looks like it’s going to be processed within 15 days, so I’ll have to wait now. I just hope it works out. Thank you.
