    How-to show ratings on Google search

    ratings.jpg
    Hi all..
    About rating plugin, do this rating works when visitor searching on Google?
    I think it will be good idea to improve CTR when visitor can see the rating stars on Google search.

    Hi Deonald,

    i think the rating plugin should be optimized for google rich snippets (microformats).

    For examble the original code of the plugin is:

    Code:
    Only registered members can view the code.
    Google will not recognize this rating.

    I think the following optimized code will show the rating on google search..

    Code:
    Only registered members can view the code.

    The code to change is in the plugin folder -> dom.tpl

    Best regards
    Steffen

    Hi Oslo,

    I refer to this proposal on http://schema.org.
    I think this should be added easily to the next version.

    That what I've changed only applies to the plugin.
    But that is not enough.

    For example:

    __________________________________________________ ____________________________

    123 Test Product
    <img src="product_picture.jpg" alt='123 Test Product' />
    Rated 3.5/5 based on 11 customer reviews <-------- This part is for the Rating Plugin

    $10.00

    Product description: Good product and very low price.

    __________________________________________________ ____________________________

    The code including microdata for google search and co.

    Code:
    Only registered members can view the code.
    You can see it requires more than just customize the plugin.

    Best regards
    Steffen

    Yes it is correct! I think it would be better with div and span tag.
    But itemprop can work in all tag elements.

    @ All who are interrested

    I think a better alternative would be a standalone plugin for microdata.
    It would be the easiest solution.

    The Plugin just needs to add the following code on the product pages. For examble:

    Code:
    Only registered members can view the code.
    Thats all. I have check this in google webmaster tools.

    Best regards

    Thanks Steffen for your help.
    Since I'm not good in editing the file you mention, i'll wait for the next version of this plugin.
    I hope flynax team will notice this thread, to add some code so Google will not recognize the rating.

    Thanks Steffen,

    justy copy the following code in dom.tpl?

    PHP Code:
    Only registered members can view the code
    and another question, does your website has sitelink from Google in search engine, because my website still doesn't appear sitelink, my website already has been submitted in January, and I am using Google webmaster, but I don't know why doesn't appear sitelink on my web site.

    Thanks Oslo, I'll try that.

    I found a blog here: htxp://www.supportivehands.net/2012/10/google-star-ratings-show-star-ratings.html
    Looks like they edit rating/review manually.
    I know its kind of tricky, but is this safe for our website?
    When I search for: "add rating to google search manually", i still can see his post and the ratings on google.
