How a 5 Star Printing Company Earns a Perfect 5.0 on Google
LAST UPDATE: 09 / 28 / 2026
55printing.com holds a perfect 5.0 star rating on Google from 14 customer reviews, and as of September 28, 2026 we could not find another national online printing company at a clean 5.0. Every review is a five. Here are the real reviews, our replies, and how to judge a print shop.
A restaurant owner in Phoenix needs 500 menus by Friday. A realtor in Tampa needs 1,000 postcards before an open house. Both do the same thing first: they open Google, type the product, and look at the stars. This is the story of how a 5 star printing company turned 14 reviews into a perfect 5.0, why that is fragile, and how we plan to keep it there. We do not hide the small sample. We put it on the table.
What a perfect 5.0 rating really means
When a shop has thousands of reviews, the score drifts toward 4.0 to 4.7, because a perfect run is almost impossible across that many people. One late delivery, one color complaint, one file that will not open, and the average moves. A 5.0 usually means one of two things: a shop that has never missed, or a small sample that has not missed yet.
Ours is the second kind, and we say so. We have 14 reviews, every one five stars. We will not pretend that is the same as 500 fives. What we can show is that we answer every review, we fix what needs fixing, and we have not lost a star. The goal is to keep that perfect line unbroken as the reviews stack up. A 5 star printing company is built one honest order at a time.
A 5 star printing company, in our customers’ own words
These are real Google reviews from our profile, with our real replies. We did not edit the wording.

“Fast does not even come close to saying what they are.” A real customer, on a 2,500 card rush order
Five reviews, one reason to buy each: speed, price, quality, value, and repeat business. Swipe the cards on a phone to read more, and open our Google profile for all 14.
We answer every review by name
A 5.0 is about more than happy customers. It is about what a shop does with feedback. We read every review, we answer by the reviewer’s name, and we keep the reply tied to their order. When a customer praises a fast turnaround, we confirm the deadline we hit. When a customer mentions price, we talk about value, not a slogan. A person writes back, and customers notice. That is what a 5 star printing company does with feedback: it answers, it fixes, and it follows up.
That habit protects the rating in two ways. It shows the next shopper that a real team is behind the profile, and it catches small problems before they turn into a one star story.
The national field we checked on September 28, 2026
We opened Google Maps and read the public ratings of the national online print shops most buyers compare us against. We do not put a competitor on blast, so every name in the table carries an asterisk to mark it as a stand-in. The names are changed. The star scores, the review counts, and the date are real.
| Print shop * | Google rating | Reviews |
|---|---|---|
| GoodPrint* | 2.9 | 497 |
| UPrints* | 2.8 to 4.5 | by location |
| NextDayFliers* | 3.8 to 4.5 | by location |
| 48HourPress* | 4.4 | 1,302 |
| VistaPrints* | 3.3 to 3.5 | varies |
| PrintFolks* | 3.9 | 282 |
| PrintSprinter* | 4.5 | 407 |
| PrimoPress* | 4.9 | 154 |
| Deluxo* | 2.3 | 37 |
Read the star score next to the review count, not the score alone. A 3.9 at 282 reviews can mean a busier, more forgiving sample than a clean 5.0 at 14, and we say so. Still, on that date, not one of the shops we checked held a perfect 5.0. That is the gap we are writing about. We are the only national online print shop we could find with a clean 5.0, and we would like to keep it there.
* Name changed. We keep competitors confidential and do not publish their real brand names. The star rating and review count beside each name are the real numbers we pulled from Google Maps on September 28, 2026.
How to judge any print shop before you order
Do not stop at the star average. Use this quick check on any shop, including us:
- Read the reviews that are not five stars first. Those tell you how the shop handles a problem.
- Check whether the owner replies. Silence on a bad review is a warning.
- Pair the score with the count. 5.0 from 20 is promising. 5.0 from 2 is noise.
- Confirm the shop offers a free digital proof before the press run.
- Ask who checks the file. Free artwork review catches low resolution, missing bleed, and wrong color mode early. Send work through the File Uploader and we review it at no charge.
- Compare real pages, then price. Start the math on business cards or a run of flyers.
Run those checks on us and on anyone else. A 5 star printing company should pass all six. A rating is a signal, not a guarantee, and the checklist below turns it into a habit.
The honest limit of a 5.0
A perfect 5.0 is fragile. We have 14 reviews. One bad week could move that number. We would rather earn the next star than protect a scoreboard. If a job ever misses, tell us first, and we will answer it the same way we answer every review: by name, with a fix.
That is also why a 5 star printing company should never ask you to skip the proof. Upload your artwork and we review it free before the press run, so most problems are caught before they cost anyone a reprint.

Questions people ask about our 5.0 Google rating
Is 55printing.com really rated 5.0 on Google?
Yes. On September 28, 2026 the 55printing.com Google Business Profile showed a 5.0 star rating from 14 reviews, and every review is a five. Ratings change as new reviews arrive, so open the live profile and check the date on any article, including this one, before you rely on the number.
How many Google reviews does 55printing have?
The profile showed 14 reviews when we checked on September 28, 2026. We would rather grow that number slowly with real customers than pad it. Each new review gets a personal reply from our team, which is why the count matters less to us than the behavior behind it. A 5 star printing company earns that count one order at a time.
Does 55printing reply to reviews?
Yes. We reply by the reviewer’s name and tie the answer to the specific order. In the reviews above, Shiloh heard about the 2,500 cards and the July 4 deadline, Driz heard about value, and Jason heard about service and quality. A specific reply shows the next shopper that a person is watching the profile.
How can I leave a 55printing review?
If you have ordered, open our Google review link and share what happened. It takes about a minute. Mention the product, the turnaround, and anything our team should know. If something went wrong, say that too, because a review we can answer is worth more than a perfect number we cannot defend.
Is a 5.0 rating trustworthy when the review count is small?
Treat it as a strong start, not a finished record. A perfect score at 14 reviews shows a shop has not missed yet and answers its customers. A high score across hundreds of reviews shows endurance. Both matter. Read the text of the reviews, not just the stars, before you decide. Look for a reply pattern and a proof offer.
What makes a 5 star printing company different from a big online printer?
We pair free file review, a digital proof before the press run, and rush turnaround, then answer every customer by name on Google. Big shops beat us on review volume. We compete on hands on service and on never having lost a star, and we intend to keep it that way as our review count grows.
Can I see the 55printing Google profile?
Yes. Open our Google Business Profile to read the reviews and our replies in full. The profile link and the review link are both listed at the bottom of this page, so you can read every review and, if you have ordered, add your own in about a minute.
Do you ship nationwide?
Yes. We print rush and standard jobs and ship across the United States. Tell us your deadline and we confirm the ship lane and the cutoffs before you order, so the date on your calendar matches the date at the door. Rush and bulk orders both ship nationwide.
Upload the file you have, ask for a free digital proof, and see how we work before you spend a dollar.
