How to add Google Reviews to your Squarespace website

Are you looking for an easy way to add your Google Business Reviews to Squarespace?

Google reviews are a powerful tool that can help you build trust with potential customers, improve your website's SEO, and boost your bottom line. But how do you add Google Reviews to your Squarespace website?

One easy way to do this is to use the Elfsight Google Reviews app. Elfsight is a third-party app that offers a variety of widgets for Squarespace websites, including a Google Reviews widget.

Here are just a few of the reasons why you should add Google reviews to your website:

1. Build trust with potential customers

Social proof is a powerful psychological phenomenon that influences people's decisions and behaviors. When potential customers see positive reviews from other customers, they're more likely to trust your business and make a purchase.

A recent study by BrightLocal found that 85% of consumers read online reviews before making a purchase decision. And, 93% of consumers say that online reviews have an impact on their purchase decisions.

2. Improve your website's SEO

Google reviews are a valuable signal for search engines. When you have a lot of positive reviews, Google is more likely to rank your website higher in its search results. This means that more people will see your website when they search for products or services related to your business.

A study by Moz found that businesses with more Google reviews ranked higher in local search results. And, businesses with a 4.5-star rating or higher ranked higher in overall search results.

3. Boost your bottom line

Studies have shown that businesses with positive reviews generate more revenue than businesses with negative or no reviews. For example, a study by BrightLocal found that businesses with a 4.5-star rating or higher generated 42% more revenue than businesses with a 3.5-star rating or lower.

Another study by Harvard Business School found that a one-star increase in a business's Yelp rating led to a 5-9% increase in revenue.
