Why The Google Review Extension Is Saying That
The review cannot be from a person or individual.
Long story short, it has to be a review from a third-party site like the New York Times or any site that PR News Wire submits a press release to.
Reviews from review websites like Trust Pilot or Yelp or Angies List will not work here.
Google looks for a legitimate sort of “Press Release” news site so that it can validate the credibility of your claim. This helps limit the chances that you had a friend write a review on Yelp or Google Plus/Business page in order to get the review in your ad.
