Why do brands show Facebook Reviews on websites?

We trust social proof and user reviews because those show authentic testimonials of how others have already experienced the product and service. When searching for something online, the reviews are often a key factor in decision making – especially if we are not familiar with the seller yet. After all, how do we know if we can trust an online shop without reviews?

Facebook Page Reviews and Recommendations provide one of the easiest ways of gathering and showing social proof. Setting up the feature doesn’t require anything special from the FB Page owner - and positive reviews encourage Facebook users to visit your website. According to research, 80% of people trust user reviews as much as personal recommendations from family and friends.

How to see my Facebook Page Reviews?

On your Facebook Page, you can enable Reviews as one of the tabs, and your fans and visitors can post their recommendations in a few clicks. To see your Facebook Page Reviews, click the 'Reviews' tab on your Facebook Page navigation. If you can’t find the link in the navigation, check the FB Page settings to make sure the tab hasn’t been disabled.

Recently, Facebook has removed the star rating from individual reviews, but you can still see if the person recommends your service (or doesn’t) .
