What the scorecard measures

Rating is the live Google star average. Review volume is how many customers have rated the business, set against the others on this page. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 5.0 from thousands of reviews carries more weight than a 5.0 from a couple of hundred. Recency shows whether new reviews are still appearing.
