Methodology and limitations
Data preparation: Reviato Insights team.
The combined sample covers reviews dated 2016–2026. Each platform’s coverage is listed below; the sample is not restricted to a shared time window. Years summarize coverage, not complete calendar years. Exact dates are in the source CSVs. The data-as-of label identifies when the snapshot was prepared, not when the reviews were written.
Each analyzed review record has equal weight: combined shares divide the sum of topic counts by the sum of analyzed reviews. Platforms and businesses with more reviews contribute more. Missing topic measurements are not treated as zero. Topics overlap, so their percentages must not be added. Displayed shares are rounded to whole percentages; rankings and CSVs retain greater precision.
The sample contains 213 platform listing records, not a verified count of unique businesses. Listings have not been matched across platforms, and possible cross-posted reviews have not been deduplicated. This analysis describes review records, not the average business or all customers. The platforms cover different periods; differences cannot isolate platform effects.
Google Maps: 7,628 analyzed reviews from 93 listing records, with review dates in 2016–2026; 10,011 stored reviews.
Average rating: 3.84 stars, arithmetic mean of ratings on the text-eligible analyzed reviews; blank-text reviews excluded (7,628 rated review records).
Excluded: 2,383 reviews with blank text. Text eligibility can change the rating and sentiment mix; these results do not describe excluded star-only reviews.
Tripadvisor: 12,240 analyzed reviews from 120 listing records, with review dates in 2016–2026; 12,240 stored reviews.
Average rating: 3.93 stars, arithmetic mean of ratings on the text-eligible analyzed reviews; blank-text reviews excluded (12,240 rated review records).
Topic counts come from automated classification that has not been validated. They describe this historical review sample, not confirmed problem rates, a diagnosis or current conditions. Quoted excerpts were checked for topic relevance; no measured classification precision is available.
