So you want to find your Google Place ID \u2014 maybe to use on a nifty local marketing tool, like our Google Review Link Generator<\/a> 😁.<\/p>\n

You can uuuusally<\/em> find your Place ID by using Google’s Place ID Finder<\/a>, and most tools that need one will have this built right in. BUT, if you’ve got a service area business (a.k.a. a listing with a hidden address), or if it’s just not showing up for some other reason, and you still need a way to reliably snag that Place ID \u2014 we’ve got you covered!<\/p>\n

It’s as easy as 1, 2, 3, 4!<\/p>\n

1.<\/strong> Search for your business on Google in a way that brings up your listing’s knowledge panel. Usually [business name] + [city] will do the trick.<\/p>\n

2.<\/strong> Inspect the Write a review<\/em> button. Do this by right-clicking<\/strong> on the button and choosing the “inspect” option (we’re using Chrome here \u2014 this varies slightly by browser, more info here<\/a>). If you don\u2019t see the button, you might be logged into the account that manages your listing. Try using Incognito mode\/another browser, or logging out.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

3.<\/strong> Find data-pid<\/strong>. Most inspectors will let you search by pressing Cmd+F (Mac) or Ctrl+F (Win).<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/strong><\/p>\n

4.<\/strong> Highlight and copy the string of characters between the quotation marks.<\/p>\n

Et voil\u00e0! You now have your Place ID and all the power that comes with it… like getting a fancy short link and QR code from our Google Review Link Generator<\/a> tool 😎<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
