Reviews of your products or services act as strong social proof and can help encourage future sales on your website. You can use your website to both collect and showcase your reviews.

One of the leading review sites in the UK is Trustpilot. Collecting and sharing reviews through their website can improve trust with your prospective customers and help you to get found in search engine results in the long term. 

Trustpilot offers a number of ways to help you to collect these reviews such as email signatures, business cards and integrations through your website known as TrustBoxes. Some are completely free, others offer more advanced features for a monthly subscription.

These TrustBoxes can be placed anywhere on your site. You can add them to one of your pages using our Custom Content Blocks, or you can add them to every page of your site by adding the code to your site footer.

Here’s how you can add a TrustBox to your website.

How To Obtain Your TrustBox Code

1. Log in / sign up to Trustpilot Business.
   

2. From your dashboard, select “Showcase”, then "Website Widgets" from the left-hand menu.

7. In the “Type” section, select the “Head” option.

8. Click “Add HTML Fragment”.
   
   

9. Repeat steps 9 - 12 for the second box of code on Trustpilot.
