Would you like to know how to add product review schema in WordPress?

Why are Product Reviews Important?

Product reviews are an essential ingredient to effective online marketing for many reasons. The primary ones include:

  • Social proof: People buy from brands others trust. If you’re a small business, getting more online reviews is a great way to prove to prospective customers that you’re a legitimate business.
  • Build trust: User reviews are a great way to build trust with your audience as they show your reliability and competence to deliver on your promises. The higher the number of reviews, the more users will trust your brand.
  • Drive sales: Reviews encourage prospects to buy from you as they show that previous customers were satisfied with your product or service. 
  • Encourage customer loyalty: The more customers interact with your brand, the more likely they are to become loyal. And reviews are a great way to foster that interaction.
  • Boost SEO: The more users mention your brand and product, the more likely search engines are to rank your product pages higher. Plus, when you output review schema markup, it positively impacts your clickthrough rates (CTR), which also impacts your rankings in search results.

As you can see, the importance of product reviews can not be overstated.

After installing and activating AIOSEO, adding product review schema is a cinch. To do so, you must first add product schema to your post or page by opening the page in editor mode. 

Next, scroll down to the AIOSEO Settings » Schema. 

To get started adding product review schema, go to Schema and edit your product schema.

Make sure the schema markup on that page is set to Product. If not, then click on the Generate Schema button. This will open up our Schema Catalog, a selection of schema markup types from which you can select and add product schema markup.  

If you haven't added product schema, click on Generate schema and select Product schema.

This will open a window with fields for adding all the information needed to output product schema markup.

Also, make sure the Autogenerate Fields toggle is set to No.

This will enable you to manually add the reviews you collect from different platforms.

Step 3: Edit Your Product Schema to Add Review Details

The next step to adding product review schema is filling in your product review details. 

To get started, click the edit schema button:

Click the edit icon to edit your product schema.

Doing so will open a window with fields for all the relevant review details needed to generate product review schema markup.

To add your product reviews, scroll down until you find the Review section.

Scroll down to the review section and fill in your review information.

You can also set your rating limits to ensure a uniform rating scale.

  1. My site vanjobs.ca – is a recruitment agency / placement firm – with “really good Google reviews. Do I need to use “product” – or is there another way to add reviews to a schema input?
