Review
The Review shortcode for WordPress can be used to display review and ratings for products or generic reviews, with proper Schema JSON-Ld code in the source which can be picked up by search engines like Google to display star ratings in the results. This can enhance your search visibility and result in more traffic to your pages. The shortcode can be easily implemented in posts or pages. Check below for example implementations and shortcode documentation:

Here are the shortcode option settings available for Review:

| type=”review” | This is used to set type of the review schema to be used. Options available: – “review” – for generic review/website review (because many WP themes have already included by default Article schema markup, this option may return an invalid setting – check with Google Rich Snippet Testing tool on one page to see if it works.
