Re: error with the reviews in the points page

Hey @Mattgwood,

For every review, you have to give a rating before it gets posted. Therefore, those ratings that you gave with a review are taken into the count of number reviews, and points are awarded accordingly (5 points for 1 review, 1 point for the rating. So for each review you share, you get 6 points.). The number of ratings you see on your contributions profile is the number of ratings you gave without reviews.

 In clear words : it just shows that how many rating you give without reviews. Find those ratings type review I'm sure it will be 0.

Re: error with the reviews in the points page

im going to test this today and  if so then  maximizing points you want this  to be close to 0 as possible .

 

    as far as google is concerned then this is just a rating  no review period .

 

 and  as i  see it no one  leaves ratings often with out reviews    but  i  pretty sure i have done this  more than once  i am going to give it  a peek and i will get back to you .

  

 

 this has been bugging me for a month or so and i  would be greatful to find a purpose as to why i can only  get 1.

Help please = reviews/ratings

Hi all

Re: Help please = reviews/ratings

hi @Jonp40210 Welcome to Connect, the Official Community of Google Local Guides

 

When you add a rating + a review (5+1 points) the count is shown under Review 

When you add a rating only (1 point) the value is shown under Rating 

 

As this is your first post in Connect, i take the opportunity to give you some information:

      • Give to the post a descriptive title

As an extra tips, i would suggest you to Search the community before posting as the same subject can be already being discussed.

 

Welcome again, I hope to see you soon 🙂

Yes there is descrepancy in my uploaded photos too.

Take care Jonp!

I'm amazed to see (sameena kausar, Indian Air Force). I do not understand why you mention these two lines in your every post. I respect my Indian defense services but never expect the line( Indian Air Force) in every post made by a simple local guide. I'm so sorry but here we are all same. It's my humble request to you plz do not make a joke of our defense services by mentioning these words. I know our defense service work day night only for us but plz don't do it.
