The stars are the most persuasive thing about your business and they are sitting on somebody else's page.
A four-point-eight from three hundred people is worth more than any sentence a copywriter can write about you. It also lives on Google, and the visitor on your website cannot see it.
Clay reads your public listing when it builds the site and puts the reviews on the page — the rating, the count, and the ones worth reading, with their names and their stars. No widget to embed, no plugin to keep updated, no subscription to a reviews service.
A wall of reviews at the bottom of a page is decoration. The rating belongs near the top, as proof, and the reviews themselves belong near the decision — beside the booking, or under the menu.
Clay places them by what the page is for rather than by convention.
The moment somebody is most likely to leave a review is just after they have been in. A link on the page they scanned at the table is the cheapest review-gathering there is.


Both, because a 5.0 from four people and a 4.7 from nine hundred are different claims.

With the reviewer's name and photograph as Google publishes them — never rewritten, never invented.

It happens when the site is built. There is no script tag and no third-party widget slowing the page down.
Type your name — Clay pulls your photos, hours, reviews and contact details straight from your Google listing.
Choose a look and Clay builds a full site around your content. Change anything with a tap — no code, no templates to wrestle.
Publish to your own name.clay.site in minutes. Add a custom domain and connect your own tools whenever you're ready.
Open one. It is the live site in a frame, not a screenshot — so what you see is what it looks like right now.
They are read when the site is built and refreshed when it is regenerated — not fetched on every page load, which would make your page depend on somebody else's API being up.
Yes. You can hide any of them; you cannot edit what somebody wrote, which is the point of a review.
The band does not draw at all. An empty reviews section is worse than none.
Google only, for now.
No — replies belong on Google, where the reviewer and everybody searching you will see them. The site shows what is published there.
Your own review markup does not put stars on your search result; Google shows those from your listing. What the page does is put the proof in front of somebody who has already landed on it.
You can hide any single review; you cannot edit what somebody wrote. The rating and the count are shown as they are, because a page that rounds its own number up is not proof of anything.
