Google Review Widget for WordPress — Free, No Plugin Needed
BlooTrue's Google Review Widget for WordPress is a free, plugin-free embed that displays your 5-star Google reviews on any WordPress site. It works with both Gutenberg (block editor) and the Classic Editor, requires no coding, and loads asynchronously so it never affects Core Web Vitals. Unlimited views on every plan including free. Six widget styles (slider, grid, list, masonry, badge, compact badge) with light and dark themes plus a free custom color picker. SEO rich snippets — schema.org Review + AggregateRating JSON-LD — are injected automatically, making your WordPress pages eligible for star ratings in Google search results.
How to embed Google reviews on WordPress in 60 seconds
- Search for your business in the configurator above.
- Pick a widget style and customize colors, theme, and layout.
- Click Copy Code to get the one-line HTML embed.
- In WordPress Gutenberg, add a Custom HTML block and paste. In Classic Editor, switch to the Text tab and paste.
- Publish — your Google reviews are live.
Does BlooTrue work on WordPress.com?
Self-hosted WordPress (wordpress.org, the 95% case) supports the widget fully. On WordPress.com, the Business tier or higher supports custom HTML and works. The free WordPress.com plan strips script tags for security, so the widget will not render there.
