Common Questions: Rating Facebook Pages

Why can't I leave a review on a Facebook business page?

Facebook has replaced the standard starred rating system with their Recommendations system. Instead of giving a review, you can give a recommendation. However, some pages may have turned off recommendations, meaning you won't be able to leave a review. [1]

How can you recommend a page on Facebook?

Go to the business's page, click on Reviews , then click Yes or No to recommend or not recommend the business. You can then write a Recommendation and post it. You can also recommend a page by replying to a friend's post asking for recommendations. [2]

Why can't I give stars on Facebook?

Facebook has replaced the standard starred rating system with their Recommendations system. Instead of giving stars, you can "recommend" or "not recommend" a business page, which will then be added to the page's overall score.

How can you rate a page on the Facebook app?

Go to the page on the Facebook app and click on Reviews . Select whether you want to recommend the business or not, then you can write your review.
