Yelp reviews on a Jimdo Creator website

Jimdo gives small firms two editors, and only one of them takes outside code, so the first question is which one your site uses. After that, the Yelp side brings its own expectations: what the reviews can do for search, and where on a Jimdo page they look settled rather than squeezed in.

Can I add Yelp reviews to a Jimdo site built with Dolphin?

No. The 'Widget / HTML' element exists only in Jimdo Creator, and the newer Dolphin editor does not support custom code, so a Dolphin site has nowhere to put the Yelp widget.

Check which editor your site uses before building anything. On Dolphin, the practical option is a plain link to your Yelp page. On Creator, add the element where the reviews belong and paste; there is no separate publish step to wait for.

Will Yelp reviews on my Jimdo site add stars in Google?

No. The Yelp widget adds no review schema, and Google never shows stars for reviews a company embeds about itself anyway. The reviews work on people already reading your page.

That makes placement the real decision. Jimdo templates leave a full-width band above the homepage footer, which suits a row of Yelp cards, and a 'Widget / HTML' element belongs to a single page, so repeat it on any subpage where people choose to call or book.

SEO + AI schema · paid plans

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 Yelp 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 Yelp Reviews to Jimdo

Connect your Yelp profile in BlooTrue, pick a style, then paste one embed code into the Widget / HTML element on Jimdo and publish.

  1. 1

    Open your site in the Jimdo Creator editor.

  2. 2

    Add a 'Widget / HTML' element where the reviews should appear.

  3. 3

    Paste the BlooTrue embed code and confirm.

  4. 4

    The widget renders immediately on the live page.

Jimdo's newer Dolphin editor does not support custom code — the Widget/HTML element exists in Jimdo Creator only.

Where the Code Goes on Jimdo

Jimdo Creator wants the embed code inside a 'Widget / HTML' element added at the point on the page where you want the reviews.

Jimdo Creator renders the element straight away, so after you confirm the paste the reviews show on the live page without a separate publish step. The element spans the content column, and it grows to whatever height the widget needs. Because Jimdo Creator edits the live site directly, anything you paste is public as soon as you confirm it, so have the code ready before you add the element.

If the widget does not show on Jimdo

  • If the reviews do not appear after confirming, check that you added the 'Widget / HTML' element rather than a Text element, which does not run scripts.
  • Jimdo Creator publishes edits instantly, so if the widget looks wrong, remove the element right away and paste the code again cleanly.
  • Homepage shows the reviews but subpages do not? In Jimdo Creator a 'Widget / HTML' element belongs to one page, so repeat it where needed.

Where Yelp reviews help most on Jimdo

For a local business the Jimdo 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 Yelp 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 Yelp reviews in this widget

The Yelp widget puts your Yelp business page's recommended reviews on your site, with the star rating and count Yelp publishes for that page at the top. Yelp's recommendation software sorts every incoming review, and the ones it files as not recommended sit in a separate section at the bottom of your Yelp page, outside the public rating, so they never move your widget's number. Each card is credited to Yelp and links back to your yelp.com/biz page. A common mistake is pasting Yelp's own embed code, which shows one review in an iframe.

Yelp Widget on Jimdo — FAQ

Is the BlooTrue Yelp review widget free for Jimdo?
Yes. BlooTrue is completely free to embed Yelp reviews on Jimdo. 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 Jimdo?
Open your site in the Jimdo Creator editor. Add a 'Widget / HTML' element where the reviews should appear. Paste the BlooTrue embed code and confirm. The widget renders immediately on the live page.
Anything specific to Jimdo worth knowing before I embed?
Jimdo's newer Dolphin editor does not support custom code — the Widget/HTML element exists in Jimdo Creator only.
Where should I place Yelp reviews on Jimdo for the biggest lift?
Above the footer of the homepage — Jimdo templates leave a clean full-width band there.
Do the reviews stay up to date automatically?
Paid plans auto-sync your Yelp reviews daily, so the widget always shows your latest 5-star reviews without touching Jimdo again. The free plan shows the reviews imported at setup.
A customer left me a Yelp review but it is not in my widget, why?
First check whether Yelp filed it under 'not recommended' at the bottom of your Yelp page. Yelp's recommendation software keeps those reviews out of the public rating, and the widget follows the listing as Yelp shows it. On the free plan, a review posted after you built the widget waits until a paid plan refreshes it daily.
Why not just use Yelp's own embed code?
Because it shows one review. The Embed review button on the desktop yelp.com puts a single recommended review on your page. The widget shows many at once, with Yelp's own star rating and review count in the header and each card linked back to your listing at yelp.com/biz/your-business.
Will a Yelp review widget give me star snippets in Google results?
No. The Yelp widget deliberately adds no review schema markup, and since July 2026 Google does not show review stars for reviews a business shows about itself through a widget. You still get the reviews on your pages with Yelp's rating and count in the header; you do not get star snippets from this source.
