Now search for your business by typing in your business name and address.
Senja will use this to find your business so it can pull in your google reviews.
Once you've found it, click on the "Get Testimonials" button and select the testimonials you want to add to your Senja account.
If you want Senja to keep your google reviews in sync, click on the "Auto-sync new testimonials" checkbox. This way, all new testimonials that people leave on Google will show up in your Senja account and testimonial embed.
Now you should see all the reviews you imported in your Senja account.
That's all for step one! Now let's add your Google reviews to your website.🎉
Step 2. Add the Google Reviews to your website
