Why Confirmed Job Counts Win You More Work Than Star Ratings Alone

Published 13 August 2026 · Propvio Guides

A high star rating is easy to display but hard to verify. A strong number of confirmed jobs is harder to fake and more persuasive to a cautious homeowner.

The Limits of a Star Rating

A profile with a single five-star review tells a homeowner very little. It could reflect one excellent job, or one review left by a friend who never hired you.

A homeowner comparing tradespeople increasingly looks past the headline rating to ask how many real jobs sit behind it.

What a Confirmed Job Count Shows

Each confirmed job on Propvio represents a real piece of work that both you and the homeowner have agreed took place. A growing count shows consistent, ongoing activity, not a one-off.

This is particularly useful for newer tradespeople, since a small but growing number of confirmed jobs demonstrates momentum even before reviews accumulate.

How to Build Your Job Count

Ask every client to log the job and tag you, not only the ones you expect to leave a glowing review. A wide base of confirmed jobs is more convincing than a small, curated set.

Keep your profile up to date with your trade type and service area, so homeowners searching for your kind of work can find your confirmed history easily.

What This Means for Your Profile

When you promote your Propvio profile, lead with your confirmed job count alongside your rating, not the rating on its own. This gives a homeowner a fuller, more trustworthy picture of your track record.
