Ghost reviews widget

Build the widget, copy one line of code, and paste it into your page. No developer, no theme files, and it keeps itself current afterwards.

• Connect your sources

• Choose a layout

• Paste the embed code into your site

Most review tools for Ghost handle one platform, or only reviews left on the site itself. That stops being enough the moment your reputation lives somewhere else too — and for most businesses it does.

This takes Goodreads, Google, Apple Podcasts, X (Twitter) and 67 more, up to 100 sources in one widget, with tabs so a visitor can filter by platform. Browse all 71.

Ghost sites are typography-first and usually restrained, so a widget that inherits the site font and uses the Outline theme will pass unnoticed. A loud card layout will not.

An HTML card inside a post or page, or code injection in the site header for something that appears everywhere.

Full-width sections suit carousel and grid layouts; sidebars and narrow columns suit a badge. Floating badges can be restricted to particular pages and to desktop or mobile.

The widget outputs review schema markup automatically. Whether Google shows a star rating depends on what the reviews are attached to — worth reading before you expect stars, because for a business reviewing itself the answer is usually no.

What does help either way: reviews on the page are content, and a page that answers what customers actually say is a page people stay on.

There is a free plan with no expiry and no card at signup: 1 widget, 200 views a month, and a small Elfsight badge. Paid plans are priced by monthly views and how many widgets you build. Websites are unlimited on every plan, including free.
