Collection rating widget with the # of reviews and average review score per collection

16 votes

Add a collection rating that has the average review score and # of reviews for all products in that collection.

It would give you a rating out of five for all products in that category. This gives you the opportunity to get the star rating in the serps for those important keywords that aren't products.

I'd love this! It's the exact feature that I have emailing support about, not realising it had already been suggested. It could work similar to how the grouping feature works, so I'm hoping this is added soon.

On each collection, it would be great if we could show all the reviews for the various products within a collection. This would be particularly helpful for marketplace stores with multiple brands.

Display a Product category/collection page total star rating (which is an aggregate rating for all products on a product category/collection page) which will then help improve SEO by displaying star rating next to Google search listing for the category page. Note, product category rating this is a subset of the total star rating for all products on the website. See attached example of a site doing this.

Unfortunately, Google has clear rules stating that: "We (Google) don't accept rich snippets for homepages; rich snippet annotations should be placed on leaf pages". Moreover, these rich snippets should only “provide review information about a specific item, not about a category or a list of items."

As a result, creating rich snippets for non-product pages like All Reviews Page, homepage, and collection pages, violates Google’s policy. Hence, it is something that Judge.me cannot support.

Thanks. So is the website example provided above in violation of Google's policy?

I think it would be better to show only the reviews related to each collection. Showing other reviews is not so good.

Yes, the website above is violating Google's policy. Some websites do this and try to get past it, but you run the risk of pretty hash penalties from Google if they find out (like getting banned from their search completely). You can read more info here: https://support.judge.me/support/solutions/articles/44001260255-can-i-add-google-rich-snippets-to-my-all-reviews-page-homepage-and-collection-pages- Hope this helps!

Average all products for each category and show a star rating attached to that category on the categories page.

this would be very useful for POD websites. For example, T-Shirts and Mugs... if 1 review is left on a mug, the review is left on ALL mugs. since there is only 1 mug with different designs on them.

But when I run Rich Result Test on my collection page, it complains that aggregateRating field is missing?

It is very odd that this functionality is not already included. It appears the carousel is designed only for use on the home page. If someone is viewing a collection page for Ford pickup trucks, they do not want to see a reviews carousel with reviews for Toyota saloons for example. Or a collection page of adhesives and the carousel includes reviews for office chairs. It seems obvious to me and I'm surprised and disappointed that Judge.me does not have this functionality.
