This guide will help you to install a product review widget on your category pages and featured products widgets within Shopify.
Displaying product ratings and review counts on category-level pages enhances trust and credibility by reassuring customers of product quality. It also speeds up purchase decisions by allowing shoppers to compare items without clicking into individual product pages, reducing friction in the buying journey. Highly rated products attract more attention, increasing click-through rates and engagement. This visibility helps with product discovery, guiding customers toward top-rated options they might not have initially considered. Ratings and reviews also provide strong social proof, influencing buying decisions and reducing bounce rates by keeping customers engaged on the page. Additionally, showcasing reviews at the category level gives your store a competitive advantage, making the shopping experience more seamless and user-friendly.
