# Show Reviews on Your Website

> Embed your Bella reviews on your own website — Wix, Squarespace, WordPress or any site builder — with a small copy-paste snippet

## Introduction

Your reviews already build trust on your Bella booking page — the reviews widget lets them do the same job on your **own website**. Copy a small piece of code from Bella, paste it into your site builder, and your reviews appear right on your page: the overall rating, the star breakdown, each review with its verified badge, and your responses.

The widget always shows your live reviews — when a new review is published or you reply to one, your website updates by itself. There's nothing to maintain.

Reviews shown in the widget are the ones you collect through Bella — see [Reviews](/reviews) for how collection, verification and responses work.

## Where to find it

1. Open **Online Booking** from the main sidebar.
2. In the **Share & embed** tab, find **Show Your Reviews on Your Website**.
3. Click **Copy HTML** to copy the snippet, or **Preview** to see exactly what the widget will look like with your reviews.

The widget is available while your plan includes the Reviews feature. For multi-location businesses, the snippet shows the reviews of the location you're currently working in — switch location to get a snippet for another site.

## Adding it to your site

Paste the copied code into any page — most businesses put it on a testimonials or reviews page, or partway down the homepage.

### Wix

1. In the Wix editor, click **Add Elements** → **Embed Code** → **Embed HTML**.
2. Paste the snippet into the element and click **Update**.
3. Wix places custom HTML in a fixed-size block that can't grow on its own — **drag the block tall enough to show your reviews**, or change the `height` value in the code (for example `height:900px`). Whatever height you give it, the widget fills the space with your reviews and the block scrolls to show the rest.
4. Click **Publish** — the widget only appears on your live site after publishing.

### Squarespace

1. Edit the page and add a **Code** block where you want the reviews.
2. Paste the snippet and save. The widget sizes itself to fit its content automatically.

### WordPress

1. Edit the page and add a **Custom HTML** block.
2. Paste the snippet and update the page. The widget sizes itself to fit its content automatically.

### Other site builders

Any builder that accepts an embed, custom-HTML or code element works the same way — paste the snippet and save. On builders that paste the code straight into the page, the widget resizes to fit its content automatically; on builders that place code in a fixed-size frame (like Wix), size the frame to fit.

## How the widget behaves

* **Published reviews only.** Reviews pending moderation or hidden never appear, and a business with no published reviews shows nothing at all — never an empty box.
* **Your responses are included** under each review, and verified clients keep their **Verified** badge.
* **It matches your brand.** The widget uses the same brand colour you chose for your booking page, and keeps text readable whatever colour that is.
* **It brings visitors back to booking.** A quiet **Book an appointment** link opens your booking page in a new tab.
* **It stays current.** New reviews and responses appear on your website automatically — no re-pasting.
* **It adapts to the space it's given.** In a narrow column or a shorter block it shows a compact, reviews-first layout — your rating on one line, then your review cards — so the space always fills with real reviews rather than a cut-off page. On a wide block it lays out the rating and star breakdown beside your reviews. In a very short strip it shows a one-line rating. This makes the widget work anywhere, from a full-width section to a sidebar.

## A note on search engines

The widget is for your **visitors** — it shows social proof at the moment someone is deciding whether to book. It doesn't change how your business appears in Google search results: Google doesn't award star ratings in search for reviews a business displays about itself on its own site, and content inside the widget isn't read as part of your page's text by search engines.

## Troubleshooting

* **Nothing appears on my site.** Check the page is published (on Wix, custom HTML only renders after **Publish**), and that your site plan allows custom code — some builders restrict embed elements on entry-level plans.
* **My reviews are cut off / the block scrolls.** Your embed block is shorter than your reviews need, so it's scrolling to fit them. On Wix, drag the block taller or increase the `height` value in the snippet to show more at once. On other builders, re-copy the latest snippet from Bella, which sizes itself to your reviews automatically.
* **The widget is empty.** The widget only renders once you have at least one published review — see [Reviews](/reviews) for collecting your first ones.
* **I changed my booking page address.** Old snippets keep working after a change of booking address, but it's best to re-copy the snippet so it uses the current one.
