Facebook is trialling making star ratings for business pages publically visible on its social network.
Certain pages, like those for restaurants, have invited users to write a short review and rate the business out of five for a while. But with this new rollout, these are now visible to other visitors to that pages. 
This could be Facebook moving into the review space currently occupied by the likes of Yelp, TripAdvisor and Google Places. Alternatively – or additionally – though, the star rating could be the next evolution of the like system Facebook uses for members to express their interest in brands.
The star ratings are visible on the mobile site and app, as well as desktop.
