How to Embed Google Reviews on Your PhotoBiz Website

Overview

Displaying Google reviews on your PhotoBiz website can help build trust with potential clients by showcasing feedback from people who have worked with your business. Google Business Profile does not provide a built-in website widget for displaying reviews, but you can use a third-party service to add them to your website.

This guide walks you through creating a Google Reviews widget, copying its embed code, and adding it to your PhotoBiz website using an HTML Block. Once configured, visitors can see your Google reviews directly on your website without needing to visit your Google Business Profile.

If you prefer to choose and display individual testimonials yourself, see How to Create a Client Testimonials Page.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, you will need a Google Business Profile with reviews and access to a third-party Google Reviews widget provider.

Popular widget providers include:

These services allow you to create a widget that displays reviews from your Google Business Profile and generates embed code for your website.

Important: PhotoBiz is not affiliated with these providers and does not control their pricing, available features, review filters, or widget functionality. Some providers may require a paid subscription for certain features.

STEP ONE

Create Your Google Reviews Widget

Visit your preferred Google Reviews widget provider and create or log into your account.

Follow the provider's instructions to find or connect your Google Business Profile and customize how your reviews will appear on your website.

Depending on the provider, you may be able to choose a layout, adjust colors, control which reviews appear, and customize other display options.

Once you have finished configuring your widget, copy the complete embed code provided by the service.

STEP TWO

Open Your PhotoBiz Website Builder

Log into your PhotoBiz account and click WEBSITE in the left-side menu.

This opens the Website Builder, where you can manage your website pages and add content blocks.

STEP THREE

Choose Where to Display Your Google Reviews

Click the page where you want your Google reviews to appear.

You can add the widget to your homepage, About page, testimonials page, or another page where visitors can learn more about your business.

If you want your Google reviews to appear in the footer across your website, click FOOTER beneath your website pages instead.

For more information about customizing your footer, see How to Set Up Your PhotoBiz Website Footer.

STEP FOUR

Add an HTML Block

Locate the HTML Block in the available blocks on the right side of your Website Builder.

Click the HTML Block to add it to the bottom of your selected page. You can also click and drag the block onto the page to position it where you want your reviews to appear.

Once the block is added, click inside the HTML Block or click the pencil icon in the upper-right corner of the block, then click ADVANCED.

The HTML Block settings will open on the right side of your screen.

For more information about this block, see How to Use the HTML Block on Your PhotoBiz Website.

FINAL STEP

Paste Your Google Reviews Embed Code

In the HTML Block settings, click HTML if it is not already selected.

Paste the complete code from your Google Reviews widget provider into the HTML CODE field.

Click SAVE CHANGES to apply your updates.

Your changes are automatically applied to your website. There is no separate publish button.

Click VIEW SITE or open your live website to confirm that your Google reviews are displaying in the correct location. We recommend checking the widget on both desktop and mobile devices to make sure it displays properly.

What Your Website Visitors See

After you add the Google Reviews widget, visitors can view the reviews directly on the page or footer where you placed the HTML Block.

Depending on the widget provider and your selected settings, visitors may see customer names, star ratings, written reviews, review dates, or a link to your Google Business Profile.

Some widgets also let visitors scroll through multiple reviews or interact with different review layouts.

The reviews shown, how often they update, and any available interactive features depend on your third-party widget provider.

Additional Options and Helpful Notes

Where Should You Display Your Google Reviews?

Consider adding your Google Reviews widget to pages where potential clients are evaluating your business.

Common locations include:

Homepage: Introduce visitors to positive client experiences.
About Page: Build credibility while sharing information about your business.
Testimonials Page: Keep your client feedback in one dedicated location.
Contact Page: Reinforce trust before visitors reach out.
Website Footer: Display your review widget at the bottom of your website pages.

You can also add separate HTML Blocks to multiple pages if you want your reviews to appear in different locations.

Using a Testimonials Page Instead

If you prefer more control over which testimonials appear on your website, you can create a testimonials page manually rather than using a third-party widget.

A manually created testimonials page allows you to:

Choose which client testimonials to feature.
Include client names or photography session types.
Add images alongside testimonials.
Control the layout and order of your testimonials.
Display testimonials without relying on a third-party review widget.

See How to Create a Client Testimonials Page for instructions.

Customizing Your Google Reviews Widget

Widget appearance, review selection, filters, and automatic updates are managed through your third-party widget provider.

If you want to change how your reviews appear, log into your widget provider's account and update the available settings.

If the provider generates new embed code, return to your PhotoBiz HTML Block, replace the existing code, and click SAVE CHANGES.

Third-Party Widget Considerations

Third-party widgets load content from external services and may affect your website's loading speed or mobile display.

Only use embed code from a trusted provider. Be aware that removing or changing your widget subscription may affect whether reviews continue to display.

PhotoBiz does not control the availability, appearance, performance, or ongoing functionality of third-party widgets.

Troubleshooting

My Google reviews are not appearing on my website.

Return to your HTML Block and confirm that you pasted the complete embed code into the HTML CODE field and clicked SAVE CHANGES.

Visit your public website and refresh the page. If the widget still does not display, check that your third-party widget account is active and that you have completed any setup requirements from the provider.

You can also test the page in another browser or check whether a browser extension is preventing the widget from loading.

If the issue continues, contact your third-party widget provider.

My Google Reviews widget looks different on mobile devices.

The widget's mobile layout and responsive behavior depend on the code supplied by your provider.

Check the available mobile or responsive settings in your widget provider's account. If the widget appears too wide, is cut off, or does not adjust to smaller screens, contact the provider for assistance.

My widget does not fill the available space.

The HTML Block includes a FLUSHING setting under STYLING that controls whether the block container extends across its available template area.

However, this setting does not override width or spacing restrictions within your third-party widget code.

See How to Use the HTML Block for more information about HTML Block styling.

My Google Reviews widget is loading slowly.

Third-party widgets depend on external services to load their content. Their loading speed can vary based on the provider and the code used.

If your website becomes noticeably slower after adding a widget, consider contacting the widget provider or using a manually created testimonials page instead.

Can PhotoBiz Support edit or troubleshoot my Google Reviews widget?

PhotoBiz Support can help you add an HTML Block, insert existing embed code, or remove code from your website.

However, PhotoBiz Support cannot create, modify, debug, or troubleshoot third-party widgets or their embed code.

For assistance with widget appearance, review selection, account connections, or functionality, contact your third-party widget provider directly.
