Review schema markup, on paid plans

Paid widgets add schema.org Review and AggregateRating JSON-LD to the page they sit on, so search engines and AI answer engines can read your Google reviews as structured data. Google does not show review stars for reviews a business shows about itself, so the gain is readability, not stars. The free plan shows the reviews without the schema. See how the schema works

How to Add Google Reviews to Strikingly

One embed code, pasted into the App Store & HTML section. Custom HTML requires Strikingly Pro or higher.

  1. 1

    Open your site in the Strikingly editor.

  2. 2

    Add a section and choose App Store & HTML.

  3. 3

    Select the HTML app and paste the BlooTrue embed code.

  4. 4

    Save and publish — the widget renders on the live one-page site.

Custom HTML sections on Strikingly require a paid plan (Pro and up) — the section won't render on the free tier.

Where the Code Goes on Strikingly

Strikingly keeps custom embeds in an App Store & HTML section rather than a text block. Add the section, pick the HTML app, and paste the embed into its code field. The section spans the full width of the one-page layout and takes its height from the widget; the editor may show the rendered reviews or a blank block depending on the script, so confirm on the published page. Strikingly builds the site menu from section titles, so titling the section Reviews adds a menu link to it. Put it right under the hero so proof lands before the pitch.

If the widget does not show on Strikingly

  • If the App Store & HTML section shows nothing on the free tier, that is the plan limit. Custom HTML renders only on Pro and up.
  • An empty section after publishing often means the code was pasted into a text block. Use the HTML app inside App Store & HTML instead.
  • If the reviews do not show after saving, click Publish. Strikingly keeps saved edits offline until you publish, so the live site shows the old section.

Google Review Widget for Strikingly — Free, No Plugin

Embed Google reviews on any Strikingly page with a single copy-paste embed code. Real Google stars are the strongest trust signal on the web. Installs via the App Store & HTML section. Custom HTML requires Strikingly Pro or higher.

Where Google reviews help most on Strikingly

For a local business the Strikingly site does one job: turn a search into a call or a booking. The home page is where most visitors land from a map result or from your Google listing, so the widget goes just below the hero, above the list of services. The contact page is the second spot, beside the phone number and the form, because that is where people hesitate before calling a company they found online. Service pages can carry a compact version. If you serve several towns and keep a page for each, add the widget to each town page too, since those are the pages that answer searches like plumber near me.

About Google reviews in this widget

Your Google widget shows the reviews on your Google Business Profile, and the number above the cards is the Google rating and review count as Google reports them, not an average of the cards. Anyone with a Google account can rate you from Maps or Search, no purchase needed. Google offers no review embed and the Business Profile has no widget, so pasting a Maps embed gives owners a map, not reviews. The free plan keeps the 4-star-and-up Google reviews imported at creation; a review left on Maps next week needs a paid plan's daily refresh.

Google Widget on Strikingly — FAQ

Is the BlooTrue Google review widget free for Strikingly?
Yes. BlooTrue is completely free to embed Google reviews on Strikingly. No plugin, no recurring fee, unlimited views. The free plan shows your reviews with BlooTrue branding in the footer; paid plans remove the branding.
How do I install the widget on Strikingly?
Open your site in the Strikingly editor. Add a section and choose App Store & HTML. Select the HTML app and paste the BlooTrue embed code. Save and publish — the widget renders on the live one-page site. Custom HTML requires Strikingly Pro or higher.
Anything specific to Strikingly worth knowing before I embed?
Custom HTML sections on Strikingly require a paid plan (Pro and up) — the section won't render on the free tier.
Where should I place Google reviews on Strikingly for the biggest lift?
One-page sites live or die on a single scroll — put the review strip directly under the hero so proof lands before the pitch.
Do the reviews stay up to date automatically?
Paid plans auto-sync your Google reviews daily, so the widget always shows your latest 5-star reviews without touching Strikingly again. The free plan shows the reviews imported at setup.
Why does the rating in my Google widget not match the average of the reviews it shows?
Because the header number is what Google publishes for your Business Profile, not a figure BlooTrue works out from the cards. The free plan shows only your 4-star-and-up Google reviews, so averaging those cards would give a higher number than Google does. Keeping Google's rating and count means visitors see the figure from Maps.
Can I get an embed code for reviews from my Google Business Profile?
No. The Business Profile gives you a link for asking customers to review you, but no embed code and no widget. The BlooTrue builder finds your profile when you type the business name, city and country, then hands you a one-line embed to paste into your website with no plugin, in about a minute.
Will embedding Google reviews put star ratings under my site in Google search?
No. Google's review-snippet rules exclude reviews a business shows about itself through an embedded widget. A paid widget still emits schema.org Review and AggregateRating JSON-LD carrying your Google rating, and that markup reaches your page when the builder renders the embed inline rather than in a sandboxed iframe, so search engines and AI assistants can read your reviews as structured data.
