To display 5-star ratings in search results through rich snippets or schema, you will need to follow these steps:
- Make sure that your business has been reviewed by customers on a reputable review platform, such as Google Reviews, Yelp, or Trustpilot.
- Mark up your website’s HTML code with schema.org structured data. This allows search engines to understand the meaning and context of the content on your website.
- Use the “aggregateRating” schema to mark up the average rating of your business and the number of ratings it has received. This schema should be placed on the page that displays the rating, such as a product or service page.
- Test your schema using Google’s Structured Data Testing Tool to make sure it is correct and will be eligible for rich results.
- Wait for Google to crawl and index your website. It may take some time for the ratings to appear in the search results.
It’s important to note that not all websites will be eligible for rich results, and there is no guarantee that your ratings will be displayed in the search results. However, by following these steps and ensuring that your website has high-quality content and a good user experience, you can increase your chances of being eligible for rich results.
