Just a regular dude who started to share my experience, on particular places, it helps me not overthink so I ended up doing it and still doing so at present.
I have reviewed more than 250+, from cafes to mini marts, malls to hospitals etc, here in the Philippines.
There is no reward to it just happy to let people know what to expect.
I want to bring awareness in using Google maps as it is helpful, the potential is a lot.
AMA, I shall answer to the best of my knowledge.
I’m also active in Google maps community.
If you ever do Google reviews, please review honestly.
Never be bribed or carry bias.
Edit: answered some in advance gonna sleep now 😂

I have many, many reviews (thousands) as well
Basically, any place that does their job and doesn’t piss me off gets 5 stars.
Not really because I like all the places, but it’s because a 1 star from me actually gets attention when someone fucks up.
Is your approach similar or different?
Has it changed your behavior when visiting places? Do you notice more stuff?
How often did you need to give out a 1 star rating?
What’s the best restaurant you’ve ever ate at ?
How many reviews ?
My friend in Indonesia once invited by Google to their event for reviewing like 100+ of places.
The event called Local Guide or something. IIRC they gave them like incentive, reward, etc.
Don’t you have something similar in the Phillipines?
