Question 1

What is a Google review badge?

Accepted Answer

A Google review badge is a small widget you embed on your website that shows your current Google star rating and total review count. It pulls trust signals directly onto your site so visitors can see your reputation without leaving the page. Businesses that display their Google rating on their website typically see higher conversion rates because the social proof is visible right where customers are making decisions.

Question 2

Does the badge update automatically?

Accepted Answer

The HTML embed code generated by this tool is static — it shows the rating at the time you copied the code. To keep it current, regenerate and re-embed the badge periodically, or use Bragly's dynamic widget which updates automatically as new reviews come in.

Question 3

Where should I put the Google review badge on my website?

Accepted Answer

The most effective placements are: your homepage hero section or just below it, your contact page, near your pricing or booking form, and your footer. Any place where a visitor is about to make a decision benefits from visible social proof. Avoid burying it in a page section nobody scrolls to.

Question 4

Is it allowed to display my Google rating on my website?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Displaying your Google rating and review count on your website is allowed as long as you follow Google's brand guidelines. The badge generated here uses plain stars and text rather than the Google logo, so there are no trademark concerns. If you want to use the Google logo, you need to follow the official Google branding guidelines.

Question 5

What badge style should I use?

Accepted Answer

Light card works on most websites with a white or light background. Dark card suits dark-themed sites or footer sections. Pill is good for tight spaces like headers or navigation bars. Minimal is best if you want something very subtle that fits into existing text or layouts without drawing too much attention.

Question 6

How do I add the badge to my website?

Accepted Answer

Copy the HTML code from the tool and paste it into your website's HTML where you want the badge to appear. On WordPress, use a Custom HTML block in the page editor. On Webflow, use an Embed element. On Squarespace or Wix, use their HTML embed or code injection feature. On Shopify, edit your theme's Liquid files or use a Custom HTML section.

Question 7

What if my business does not show up in the search?

Accepted Answer

Try searching with your full business name and city name together. If your business is newly created on Google or has very few reviews, it may not appear in search results. Make sure your Google Business Profile is fully verified and published. You can also search using your business address if the name alone does not return results.

Question 8

Can I customise the badge colours to match my brand?

Accepted Answer

The generated HTML uses inline CSS, so you can edit the colour values directly in the code to match your brand. Look for the background, color, and border-color values in the style attributes and replace them with your brand colours. The star colour (#f59e0b) can also be changed if you prefer a different shade.

Style	Best for	Not ideal for
Light Card	White or light-coloured websites, anywhere you want the badge to stand out	Dark backgrounds (use Dark Card instead)
Dark Card	Dark-themed sites, footer sections, dark hero areas	Light backgrounds where it would look out of place
Pill	Headers, navigation bars, tight spaces where a full card would be too large	When you want to show the business name (pill is compact and name-free)
Minimal	Inside paragraphs, next to form fields, subtle placements that should not distract	Hero sections where you want maximum visibility and impact
