Short answer
Local search is where a plastic surgery practice gets found, and Google names review count and review score as ranking inputs for local results. Reputation Medics files policy-violating reviews for businesses in 141 metro areas across 51 states, remotely, at $397 per Google review and $697 per Yelp review. Pay upfront. If the specific item is not removed within 30 days, the removal fee is automatically refunded.
Google publishes three factors for local results and names review count and review score among the prominence inputs. The quoted line under each heading is Google's wording. The second line is what it means for a plastic surgery practice sitting on a review that breaks policy.
How well a local Business Profile matches what someone searched for.
Category, services and profile detail carry this one. A review never makes a profile more relevant, but review text does get read by people comparing two profiles that match equally well.
How far each possible search result is from the location term used in a search.
Nothing about a review changes distance. This is why a shop can rank in the map pack and still lose the call to the business one rating point higher.
How well known a business is, which Google states includes review count and review score along with links, articles and directories.
This is the factor a policy-violating review touches. A fake one-star sits in the same score Google reads as prominence, and it sits there until the platform removes it.
Google publishes three factors for local results: relevance, distance and prominence. Review count and review score sit inside prominence, alongside links and mentions elsewhere on the web. Relevance and distance are set by the profile and the searcher's location. Prominence is the part a fake or policy-violating review drags on, and the only fix is getting that review off the listing.
No one can promise that, and we do not. Google decides its own results the same way it decides its own removals. What removal changes is what a searcher sees in the map pack and on the profile next to your name. Google, Yelp, and the sites we file with make the final removal decision. What we guarantee is the automatic refund of the removal fee if the item stays up past 30 days.

One price everywhere: $397 per Google review, $697 per Yelp review, $497 per harmful link on another site. No retainer and no travel charge. Pay upfront. If the specific item is not removed within 30 days, the removal fee is automatically refunded.
On the typical job job type, a $2,500 job at a 100% gross margin is $2,500 of gross profit. That is one job, multiplied out from a labeled cross-industry default, not trade data. Searchers who pick the profile above yours never appear in any report you can read.
Gross profit is the job value multiplied by the gross margin in the same row. Nothing is projected and no lost-revenue total is claimed. No trade body publishes job values, close rates or margins for this trade, so the figures below are a labeled cross-industry default, not trade-specific data.
| Job type | Job value | Gross margin | Gross profit per job |
|---|---|---|---|
| Typical job | $2,500 | 100% | $2,500 |
