Not a plugin. Not a Yelp widget. A review system you own, hosted on your domain, with full admin control and zero monthly fees to a third party.

How It Works
The review system is built from scratch into your site. Every field, every workflow, every display rule is designed for small business owners who need control without complexity.
Every new review - whether entered manually or imported from Google - goes into a pending queue first. Nothing goes live until you approve it. No spam, no fake reviews slipping through unnoticed.
The system compares each incoming review against existing ones using text similarity scoring. At 89% similarity or above, the duplicate is flagged automatically. You will never see the same review show up twice from a bulk import.
89% similarity thresholdAdd reviews two ways: manually enter them from your admin dashboard one at a time, or do a bulk Google Reviews import. Both channels feed into the same pending queue and go through the same approval step.
Each review stores: reviewer name, full review text, star rating (1-5), date, location, featured flag, unique ID, and sort order. You have everything you need to organize and display reviews the way your business needs them.
Mark any review as featured and it automatically appears in the homepage review section. No code changes needed. You decide which reviews make the best first impression on new visitors.
The GoogleReviews.php page displays your reviews with built-in schema markup. This makes your reviews eligible to appear as rich results in Google search - star ratings in the snippet, review counts, the whole picture.
Service businesses collect reviews constantly. The approval queue means the owner sees every review before it goes live. One missed spam entry doesn't turn into a public problem. Reviews from loyal repeat customers stay front and center with the featured flag.
Salon owners love the sort order control. They can put the most detailed and specific reviews at the top where new visitors see them first. There is no algorithm deciding what shows - the business owner decides.
Parents researching daycares are cautious. A daycare owner told us: "Parents tell me all the time how professional it looks." Having reviews on your own site, with your own branding, and no third-party ads surrounding them reads differently than a Yelp page.
When someone reads a review on prostarplanet.com/your-business, every trust signal points to your business. When they read it on Yelp, Yelp gets the credibility and can show ads for your competitors next to your reviews. Your review system should work for you.
