Why show Yelp reviews on your own site
Yelp still drives high-intent local traffic in the US. Showing those reviews on your own site keeps visitors on your page instead of bouncing back to a listing surrounded by competitors.
| Platform | Who it reaches | Priority |
|---|---|---|
| Yelp | US diners, tradespeople and local service searchers | Essential in the US |
| Map pack and branded search | Essential | |
| Community and social referrals | Medium | |
| TripAdvisor | Visitors and tourists | Medium |
All 11 supported platforms can live in one grid — see every review source in one widget.

Displaying Yelp reviews fairly
Only connect a listing you own or are authorised to represent. Reviews are shown as published — reviewer names and photos unchanged, no editing, and no filtering by star rating. Every card carries the Yelp source badge and links back to the original review, and that attribution cannot be switched off. Yelp and its logo are trademarks of their owner; Reviews Widget is an independent product and is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Yelp.
