Easiest Categories to Win on Google Maps in Bangalore

Not every category is crowded. In some, most businesses on Google Maps have fewer than 100 reviews, which makes the top 3 much easier to reach.

Lawyers

Most law practices have barely started collecting Google reviews. A few firms in each area hold most of the reviews, so the top 3 still stand out, but the bar is far lower than in food or beauty.

Real estate agents

Real estate is the most open category we checked. In many areas the top 3 agents have fewer than 100 reviews between them on average.

Why these categories are open

  • Clients visit less often than a restaurant or salon, so reviews build slowly.
  • Many professionals rely on referrals and have not set up a review habit.
  • That leaves room for any business that asks every happy client for a genuine review.
