As a business owner, you know the importance of reviews. Not only do they provide valuable feedback, but they can also help attract new customers and boost your search engine ranking. If you’re using Squarespace to build your website, you might be wondering how to add a review section.

Luckily, Squarespace makes it easy to collect and display customer reviews. In this article, we’ll show you how to add a review section to your Squarespace website.

There are two ways to add a review section to your Squarespace website:

1. Use the pre-built Review Block
2. Add an Embed Code widget

Option 1: Use the pre-built Review Block

Squarespace offers a pre-built Review Block that you can use to display customer reviews on your website. To use the Review Block, simply add it to your page from the Blocks panel.

Once you’ve added the Review Block, you can customize it to match your brand. For example, you can change the color, font, and layout of the reviews. You can also choose whether to display the reviewer’s name and location.

To collect customer reviews, simply click on the “Add Reviews” button and enter the reviewer’s name, location, and rating. You can also leave a comment for each review. Once you’re finished adding reviews, click on the “Save” button.

Option 2: Add an Embed Code Widget
If you’re using another platform to collect customer reviews (such as Google or Yelp), you can add them to your Squarespace website using an Embed Code widget. To do this, simply add the Embed Code widget to your page from the Widgets panel.

Then paste your review code into the widget settings.

1. Make sure you moderate the reviews that are posted. This means approving each one before it goes live on your site. This will help to ensure that only positive, constructive reviews are posted.

2. Respond to all reviews, both positive and negative. This shows that you care about what your customers think and are willing to listen to feedback.

3. Don’t delete negative reviews. While it may be tempting to only allow positive reviews on your site, this will make you look like you’re trying to hide something. If a customer leaves a negative review, use it as an opportunity to show how you’re willing to improve your products or services.

4. Offer incentives for leaving reviews. Some customers may be hesitant to leave a review because they don’t want to take the time or they’re

That’s it! You now know how to add a review section to your Squarespace website using either the pre-built Review Block or an Embed Code widget.
