Why Is My Google Review Not Showing?

Usually one of a few things, and most resolve themselves:

• It is simply delayed, new reviews can take minutes to a day or two.
• Google's spam filter caught it, reviews with links, phone numbers or promotional wording often get held back.
• Policy violation or suspected incentive.
• The reviewer's account looks new or suspicious to Google.
• It landed on the wrong or a duplicate listing.

Wait a couple of days, keep reviews link-free, and make sure they are reviewing your correct profile. The best protection is volume, so the odd filtered review does not sting.
