Why Review Freshness Beats Review Volume in 2025

Google's Local Algorithm Now Ranks Recency First

A contractor with 300 old reviews now loses Map Pack positioning to competitors with 75 recent reviews. Fresh social proof signals active business operations and satisfied customers, which Google interprets as indicators of quality and reliability. Review-Velocity Engine™ maintains the consistent review flow needed for sustained local search dominance.


The algorithm change impact:

  • Established contractors losing Map Pack positions despite high review counts
  • Newer businesses climbing rankings through consistent fresh reviews
  • Review date stamps becoming more important than overall star ratings
  • Voice search results favoring businesses with recent customer feedback
