Do I need a plugin to embed Google reviews in Jimdo?

No. Jimdo has no plugin system like WordPress. SwissTrustWidget works via an HTML embed code that you insert as a "Widget / HTML" element. No plugin, no app, no technical knowledge required.

Does the widget work with both Jimdo versions?

Yes. SwissTrustWidget works with both Jimdo Creator (classic) and the new Jimdo editor. Embedding works via the "Widget / HTML" element (Creator) or the "Embed" block (new editor).

Does the widget affect my Jimdo page load time?

No. The script loads asynchronously. Your Jimdo page loads normally and the widget loads in parallel. In our tests, the impact on LCP is under 50ms.

Can I display the widget only on certain pages?

Yes. Insert the code only on the pages where the widget should appear. For site-wide display, place the code in the footer area of your Jimdo page.

Are new Google reviews displayed automatically?

Yes. SwissTrustWidget automatically syncs with your Google Business Profile. New reviews appear on your website without manual action.

Do I need a paid Jimdo plan?

For HTML embeds, we recommend at least the Jimdo Start plan. In the free Play plan, the HTML function may be limited.

How much does SwissTrustWidget cost?

CHF 49 once — no subscription, no hidden costs. This is a lifetime deal. For comparison: other widget providers charge between CHF 60 and CHF 315 per year.

Embed Google Reviews in Jimdo – In 3 Steps

Display your Google reviews directly on your Jimdo website. No app, no coding skills — done in under 2 minutes.

Jimdo is one of the most popular website builders in Switzerland and the German-speaking region. Over 32 million websites have been created with Jimdo — many by small businesses, trades businesses and freelancers who manage their own websites. The problem: Jimdo has no built-in function for Google reviews. When a customer visits your website, they won't see your 4.8-star rating — unless you embed it yourself. With SwissTrustWidget, it takes 60 seconds. No technical knowledge required. One HTML code — done.

Create Widget at SwissTrustWidget

Go to swisstrustwidget.ch and click "Create Widget". Connect your Google location, choose a template (badge, carousel, review cards). For Jimdo websites, compact badges and inline widgets work particularly well — they fit seamlessly into Jimdo layouts. Customise the design.

Copy Embed Code

Once your widget is designed, click "Copy Code". SwissTrustWidget generates a short script tag — this is the code you insert into your Jimdo page. Copy the entire code to your clipboard.

Insert in Jimdo

Jimdo Creator: "+ Add Content" → "Widget / HTML" → paste code, save. New Jimdo Editor: "Add Block" → "Embed" → paste code, save and publish.

What the embed code looks like

HTML

<div class="google-review-widget"
  data-template="compact-badge"
  data-theme="light"
  data-lang="en"
  data-place-id="YOUR_GOOGLE_PLACE_ID"
  data-max-reviews="3"
  data-show-name="true"></div>
<script src="https://app.swisstrustwidget.ch/widget.js" async></script>

Multilingual site? One separate code per language version. The language goes in data-lang, right after data-theme — fr, it or en; German needs no attribute. It sets the widget labels and which reviews Google returns first; the review texts stay in their original language.

Where to place the widget?

Home page (directly below the hero): A badge or trust pill below the main headline. Visitors see in the first few seconds that your business is rated. Contact page: Review cards or a carousel next to the contact form. Right where the inquiry decision is made. About us page: A comprehensive widget with multiple reviews and authentic customer testimonials. Services or offers page: A compact badge near your prices or service descriptions. Footer (site-wide): A compact badge in the footer appears on every page. In Jimdo Creator, via a "Widget / HTML" element in the footer area.

Troubleshooting: Widget not showing?

Page published? In the Jimdo editor, click "Publish" after saving. Clear browser cache: Open page in incognito mode or clear cache. Correct element selected? "Widget / HTML" element (Creator) or "Embed" block (new editor) — not a regular text element. Check your Jimdo plan: In the free Play plan, HTML embeds may be restricted. HTML embedding is available from the Start plan onwards.
