How to Embed Amazon Reviews on a Website
In this article you'll learn how to design and install a review widget on your website using Elfsight Amazon Reviews widget, which contains user reviews, rating badges, and an Amazon link to gather input.
In four simple steps, you may post reviews on your website:
Seems simple, doesn't it? Additionally, you may add reviews without any scripting, pre-made templates, and get total compatibility with any platform for website management.
Step 1. Create an Amazon Reviews plugin
We will first select a template for your particular instance. Simple and effective options for integrating reviews on a page are Slider or Grid.
For the bottom and sidebar, clean, uncomplicated design work best; rating badges are excellent for floating widgets. Once you have found the ideal option, select ‘Continue with this template’.
Add sources to the Amazon Reviews widget
You can integrate reviews from your Amazon profile into the widget by entering your address and business name in the widget's search field.
Afterwards, you may filter reviews by ratings, keywords in the review text, author, and URL to remove unfavorable and undesirable ones. Read an article for more information about reviews filtering.
Step 2. Configure the review plugin
The widget may be fully customized in a visual editor once it has been deployed. You may put up the additional Amazon Reviews and integrate them into a website with just a few simple clicks, giving them the appropriate style and feel.
Bonus: Examine the widget's pre-integrated Schema markup
To create a rich snippet, which will display stars for a website page in search results and, consequently, generate more clicks, micro-markup is required. In the article you can read more about how Schema markup functions.
In the Reviews widget, it is turned on by default. But if you'd like, you can always switch it off.
Modify layout
To make interacting with Amazon reviews as easy as possible, select List, Masonry, Grid, Carousel, Floating badge, or Embeddable badge. Then decide on a review style. Check to see which components are required, then turn them on or off. Last but not least, select a light or dark color scheme, an accent color, a typeface, and get a preview of your lovely customer reviews.
Step 3. Obtain an embed code
Save the generated widget, then copy the Amazon Review embed code into your Elfsight Apps account. You may now show it on your website.
You can now show the review widget you generated on your website by adding it.
Step 4. Insert the code into a webpage
Any platform that accepts custom HTML can accept the widget installation code by pasting it there. You can move on to the next steps after making sure your website builder or CMS supports this option.
- In your page or website template, add an HTML section.
- Input the embed code there.
- Save the modifications, then check the integrated widget.
It's really simple! The general procedure depends on the website building platform you choose. The more detailed instructions for inserting reviews into various website builders are provided below.
