Next, go to your Netlify CMS website editor and find the HTML field. It is most likely in the form of an HTML/Code widget or module which you can find on the Netlify CMS’s editor.

Why Use This Widget

Use the Sitejabber Reviews widget when you want to highlight customer satisfaction for your online business using an established review platform. Shoppers who do not know your brand yet often look for external proof that you deliver what you promise. By embedding Sitejabber ratings and selected comments, you show that your reputation extends beyond your own site. This is effective on checkout pages, product overviews, and trust sections where users decide whether to share payment details. Visible independent reviews help reduce anxiety, differentiate you from less transparent competitors, and signal that you are confident enough in your service to show public feedback in a central place.
