Want to learn how to add review widgets for your website?

Displaying review widgets can be a fantastic way to build trust in your brand and convert your visitors.

But manually embedding review widgets on your site can be tough – especially if you’re not used to dealing with code.

The solution? We’ll show you a simple way to embed reviews from the biggest platforms out there.

But first, let’s see what review widgets are and how they can help your business.

What are Review Widgets?

Review widgets are blocks of content you can use to show reviews on your WordPress website.

That way, anyone visiting your website can see positive reviews and testimonials of your brand made by regular users just like them.

If you want the review widgets to be effective, you can show content from well-known and highly-trusted review sites.

For that, the best options that you can use are Tripadvisor, Yelp, Facebook, and Google.

Just like that, you’ll have a much easier time converting your website visitors and growing your business.

Why Embed Reviews Widgets for Your Website?

Fun fact: 93% of users check reviews before buying something online.

By embedding review widgets with positive reviews of your brand, you can show visitors that regular people like them are happy with your products.

So, you can convince more people to buy from you and grow your sales.

What’s more, here are a few more ways you can use review widgets for your website:

  • Convince more people to sign up for your website and make a purchase
  • Show fresh content that can boost your SEO and rank your site higher in search results
  • Make your website more engaging with a variety of content and even photos 
  • Build trust in your brand and start converting more people into dedicated customers

Now that you know review widgets can help your business, let’s see how you can add them to your site.

How to Add a Review Widget to Your Website

When it comes to embedding review widgets, there are 2 options that you can choose from:

  • Manual Way: Generate HTML embed codes for the reviews you’d like to embed and insert the code into your site
  • Easy Way: Use a WordPress plugin that can automatically show reviews on your website.

Using the manual method, adding review widgets to your website can end up taking a lot of time and effort.

After all, you’re manually generating embed codes for the reviews and adding them to your site.

What’s more, you won’t be able to customize your review widgets without editing the code yourself. And if you’re not used to used to coding, you’ll need to spend money hiring a developer.
