Frequently Asked Questions

How Reviews For You works for shoppers and for local businesses.

For shoppers

How do you choose the Top 5?

Free rankings are our editorial opinion based on public review ratings and volume, years in business, credentials and awards, pricing transparency and local service area. Rank 1 is our top recommendation.

What does "Featured ยท Paid placement" mean?

Businesses can reserve a Top 5 position for 12 months. Those positions are always labelled as paid. Paying never changes the description, pros or cons we publish.

Which cities do you cover?

Calgary, Airdrie, Okotoks, Cochrane and Chestermere, Alberta. Each industry has its own Top 5 for each city.

A business on your list gave me a bad experience. What should I do?

Please tell us through the support form. We review feedback when we update rankings.

For businesses

Is it free to be listed?

Yes. Submit your business with a short brief, pros and cons. Our team verifies every submission before it goes live and emails you a copy of what you sent.

How long does verification take?

Usually 2 to 3 business days. We check that the business is real, active and serves the city you selected, and we may edit the text for accuracy and length.

How much does a Featured position cost?

Pricing is per position, per city, for 12 months. Position 1 costs the most and position 5 the least. See the full table on the Advertise page.

What happens when my year ends?

We email you 30 days and 7 days before it ends with a renewal link. Current holders get first right to renew their spot. If you do not renew, the position returns to our free editorial ranking.

Can I update my listing?

Yes. Send changes through the support form and we will verify and update them.

How do I stop placement offers?

Every offer email has an unsubscribe link. Unsubscribing does not remove your free listing.

Still have a question?

Our team usually replies within one business day. Featured customers get priority support.
