Who it is for
Who needs a Google review widget?
Best fit for Strikingly site owners whose buyers want proof before they commit. Personal brands, freelancers, and small product launches tend to see the biggest impact.
Personal brands and portfolios
Single-page Strikingly sites work well when reviews sit between the about section and the contact form. The single-line rating in the hero area also pairs well with portfolio templates.
Freelancers and consultants
Reviews between the services list and the contact section lift booking inquiries. The carousel widget fits the Strikingly section flow without overwhelming the page.
Simple Store sellers
Strikingly's Simple Store gets a conversion lift when a review wall sits above the product grid. The HTML section accepts the WiserReview embed on Pro and VIP plans.
Event landing pages
Single-page event sites benefit from reviews near the registration form. A floating badge in the corner keeps trust visible as visitors scroll the agenda or speakers list.
Coaches and small course launches
If you're running a small launch through Strikingly before moving to a course platform, reviews above the signup form work as proof. Pair with a single-line rating in the hero for instant credibility.
Anyone using Strikingly as their main site
The floating badge widget gives you site-wide social proof through Custom Code injection. Works on Pro and VIP plans.

Strikingly install methods and placement tips
Last verified on Strikingly Pro in May 2026. Every tip below has been tested on real Strikingly single-page and multi-page sites.
Method 1. HTML section (Pro plan or higher)
Set it up in WiserReview
In the site editor, click Add New Section in the spot where you want the widget. Choose the HTML section type. Paste the WiserReview embed code into the HTML field. Click outside the editor to save, then publish. The section inherits the site's width and color theme on its own.
Method 2. Custom Code site-wide injection
Set it up in WiserReview
Open Settings, then Advanced Settings, then Custom Code. Paste the WiserReview script tag into the head or body field. Save and the widget appears site-wide. Requires Pro plan or higher.
Single-page vs multi-page Strikingly sites
Set it up in WiserReview
On a single-page site, the review section sits between two of your core sections, usually between Services and Contact. On multi-page sites, the homepage gets a review wall and each service or product page gets a tag-filtered widget. The floating badge through Custom Code works equally well on both.
Place the widget where buyers actually decide
Set it up in WiserReview
For service pages, the spot between the price and the Get Started or Contact button works particularly well. For Simple Store pages, the review wall above the product grid is the strongest placement. The very bottom of a Strikingly single-page site is a weak spot; engagement drops off there.
Match the widget to your Strikingly template
Set it up in WiserReview
If you're on a VIP plan with Custom CSS access, target the .wiser_review_wall class to tweak spacing or colors without going into the widget settings. For Pro plan users, the WiserReview design panel handles font weight, padding, and background tone.
Test in Strikingly Preview before publishing
Set it up in WiserReview
Click Preview at the top right of the editor before you publish. A common gotcha: the HTML section shows a placeholder in the editor, not the live widget. The widget only renders when you preview or publish. If it's still empty in Preview, an analytics-blocker extension is probably intercepting the WiserReview script.

FAQ
Google reviews on Strikingly, answered
No. The HTML section type is only available on Pro and VIP plans. The Free and Limited plans don't allow custom HTML embeds. To use the WiserReview widget, you'll need to upgrade to Pro at minimum. We last verified this on Strikingly Pro in May 2026.
Yes. Single-page Strikingly sites built on Pro and VIP plans support the HTML section. Drop it in between two of your core sections, usually between Services and Contact, where it has the most impact on conversion.
Strikingly's testimonials are manual text blocks that you type in yourself. They don't pull from your Google Business Profile and don't output schema markup. WiserReview connects directly to your Google reviews, syncs new ones on its own, and outputs the schema that lets star ratings appear in your Google search snippets.
No. The WiserReview script loads asynchronously after Strikingly's first paint, so it doesn't block the page from rendering. It adds about 18KB to total page weight in our measurements.
Yes. On VIP multi-page Strikingly sites, create separate widgets in your WiserReview dashboard with different tag filters, then paste the matching embed code into each page's HTML section. As an example: the services page shows service-tagged reviews, while the product page shows product-tagged ones.
Use Custom Code injection. Open Settings, then Advanced Settings, then Custom Code. Paste the WiserReview script tag in the head or body field. The floating badge then appears on every page. Requires Pro plan or higher.
Yes. Add the HTML section to a page that includes the Simple Store, either above or below the product grid. The widget doesn't go inside the product card itself, but a section adjacent to the grid works well for store-wide social proof.
Yes. Every widget style is responsive out of the box. On Strikingly's mobile-stacked layouts, the wall widget stacks vertically and the carousel becomes a swipe scroll. Worth testing in Strikingly Preview's mobile mode before you publish.
