WebForger Apps

Product Reviews

FREE Included with every WebForger site

Collect reviews from the customers who actually bought, show them on your product pages with photos, and let the star rating follow you into Google results. It is part of the platform rather than a widget you rent, so there is no monthly fee and no third party script loading on the page where people decide whether to buy.

What it looks like on a working shop.

Screenshots taken from a New Zealand luggage and bag retailer whose store runs on WebForger. Nothing below is a mockup or a design concept.

Product page
A product page showing a five star rating badge with a review count directly above the price

The rating badge sits above the price, written into the page HTML rather than fetched after the page has already appeared.

Product page review wall
A product review wall showing an average score, a star distribution chart and individual reviews with verified purchase badges

The review wall on the same product: the score, the distribution across one to five stars, verified purchase badges, reviewer location and date.

Store reviews page
A store wide review summary showing an average rating of 4.8 from 281 reviews and how many came from confirmed purchases

Every store also gets one page that gathers all of its reviews, with an honest count of how many came from confirmed purchases.

Why it earns its place

Customer reviews are the cheapest conversion work available to you.

A shopper who cannot touch the product is looking for somebody like them who already bought it. That is the entire job. You do not need a clever popup or a discount ladder for it, you need the last forty customers saying what they thought, visible on the page where the decision happens, with their photos attached. Most stores already have those opinions sitting in an inbox or on a platform they are about to leave.

The reason this normally costs money is that review widgets are a good subscription business. They charge monthly, they charge more as your order volume grows, and the reviews you collected live in their database rather than in your pages. We built this app for a retailer who wanted photo reviews without a fourth monthly bill, and then gave it to every site on the platform.

  • The reviews live on your domain, in your HTML. The search value they create belongs to your product pages, and if you ever leave they go with you rather than staying in a vendor's account.
  • Star ratings appear on collection cards, not only on product pages. That is the moment somebody is still deciding which of six items to open, and a rating is the fastest thing they can read.
  • Customer photos open full size. A picture of the bag in somebody's hallway answers the question your studio photography cannot, which is what the thing actually looks like in an ordinary room.
  • The asking happens without you. Review request emails go out a set number of days after delivery, so the wall keeps filling while you are doing something else, which is the only way it ever gets past the first dozen.
  • Nothing appears before you have read it. Reviews wait for your approval, and you can answer one in public, which is usually worth more to the next reader than the complaint costs you.
What the app does

Four jobs, none of them your problem.

Collect

A review request email goes out automatically once an order has been delivered, written in your store's name and linking to a one page form with a star selector and a photo upload. You set how long to wait and how many reminders to send. Because the request is tied to a real paid order, the review that comes back can be marked as a confirmed purchase rather than an anonymous opinion.

Display

A star badge on the product page and on collection cards, a full review wall with the score distribution, verified badges and reviewer location, a lightbox for customer photos, and one store wide reviews page. The whole thing takes its colours, corners and type from your site's own design tokens, so it reads as part of the shop instead of a panel somebody bolted on.

Search visibility

Reviews are rendered on our edge network before the page reaches the browser, so a crawler sees the words and the rating in the HTML rather than an empty container waiting for a script. The average rating and review count are published as product structured data, which is the mechanism behind the rating stars that sometimes appear under a result in Google.

Bring what you already have

Reviews you collected on Judge.me or inside Shopify can be imported with their ratings, dates, reviewer names and photos intact, and mapped onto the matching products. A store that arrives with three hundred reviews launches with three hundred reviews. Nobody should have to start their social proof again because they changed platform.

How it works

Three steps, and two of them are ours.

1

We switch it on

Tell us you want reviews and the app is enabled on your site, usually the same day. If you are arriving from Judge.me or Shopify, your existing reviews are imported in the same pass so the shop is never showing an empty wall.

2

Customers get asked

Orders that have been delivered trigger a review request on the schedule you chose. The customer writes a few lines, picks a rating and adds a photo if they want to, and the review lands in your dashboard waiting for a glance.

3

It does its work

You approve it, or reply to it, and it appears on the product page, on the collection card and on your store reviews page, with the rating published as structured data for search engines at the same moment.

FAQ

What people ask before turning it on.

Is the reviews app really free?
Yes. There is no monthly fee, no charge per review and no volume tier that starts billing you once the wall gets popular. It is included with every WebForger site, including the free preview tier. We do not fund the platform by renting features back to the people who already paid for the site, which is the only reason we can say that without an asterisk.
Can we bring the reviews we already collected?
Usually yes. Reviews held in Judge.me or inside Shopify can be imported with their ratings, dates, reviewer names and customer photos, and matched to the equivalent products on your new store. Tell us where they live before we migrate the shop and they arrive with everything else, so the site launches with its history rather than an empty product page.
Will the star rating show up in Google search results?
The app publishes your average rating and review count as product structured data in the page itself, which is the requirement for review snippets. Whether Google then draws the stars under your result is Google's decision and nobody can promise it, but a store without that markup is not eligible in the first place. Because the reviews are rendered server side rather than loaded by a script, the content backing the rating is visible to a crawler on the first request.
Can we moderate reviews, and can we reply to one?
Reviews wait in your dashboard and appear on the site only once you approve them, and you can post a public reply under any of them. What we will not build is a tool for quietly burying honest criticism. A wall of nothing but five stars reads as fake to most shoppers, whereas one well answered complaint tends to do more for the next buyer than the complaint cost you.
Do we need to add any code to the site?
No. There is no snippet to paste, no theme file to edit and no tag manager container involved. The review widget, the badge and the reviews page are produced by the platform that already renders your product pages, which is also why adding reviews does not cost you any loading speed or hand another company a view of your visitors.
Also included

Two more apps that work on the same problem.

Every app on the platform is included on every site at no monthly fee.

Google Reviews

FREE

The reviews you have already earned on your Google business profile, rendered as a proper section of your site and refreshed on its own. Product reviews prove the product, Google reviews prove the business, and most shops want both.

See the Google Reviews app

Leads Flux

FREE

Contact form submissions sorted into genuine enquiries, sales pitches and junk, with a first reply drafted from your own pages for the real ones. Nothing is sent until you have read it and approved it.

Your customers already have opinions. Put them on the page.

WebForger is invite only, so the first step is a short application rather than a signup form. Tell us what you sell, where your reviews live now and what your current review app costs you each month. If we are not the right fit we will say so, and you will still leave with a straight answer.
