Hello,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math and bringing your concern to our attention. I’m sorry for any inconvenience this issue may have caused you.
There is no option to ask Google to dynamically grab reviews and show them in SERPs.
The following schema types support ratings and you can select one of them if they match the topic of the article that you are writing:
– Book
– Course
– Event
– Product
– Recipe
– Software Application
– Movie
Here is our complete guide on How to Earn Star Ratings in SERPs by using Schema Markup with Rank Math:

To keep Google informed of changes, you can refresh/flush your sitemap. Please follow these steps:
1. Flush the Sitemap cache by following this video screencast:

2. Exclude the Sitemap files of the Rank Math plugin in your caching plugin. The cache could be via a plugin or from the server:

Hope this helps. Looking forward to helping you.
Thank you.
Hm… and how is it possible that other pages have dynamical reviews as far as we can see in the SERP’s? 🤔 Are they using a paid service like Proven Expert or Trusted Shops or something like that to have those dynamical Rich Snippets?
Hello,
You can request reviews from customers through a short URL that’s specific to your business. To get reviews on Google, encourage your customers to spread the word about your business with these best practices:
Verify your business
Remind customers to leave reviews
Reply to reviews to build your customers’ trust

I know how to get reviews.
That was not my question. Sorry.
See screenshot: https://lift-profi24.de/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/2021-11-19_14-24-40.png
These are all competitors.
How did they realize this review rich snippet?
This is not done manually with a tool like Rank Math, is it? Because in Rank Math we can’t fill in the amount of reviews for example.
So these ones should be connected to a “real review system”, right?
We want something like this, too 🙂
Hello,
I checked some of the sites from your screenshot. They are using the Product Schema to add reviews on their site: https://search.google.com/test/rich-results/result/r%2Fproduct?id=D_Rk7SAYlPnY86oEuX9KDw
If you want then you can add a Product Schema to the page and then use the filter given below in your theme’s functions.php file to add the aggregateRating to the Product Schema:
add_filter( "rank_math/snippet/rich_snippet_product_entity", function( $entity ) {
$entity['aggregateRating']['ratingValue'] = '5'; //change according to the reviews you have
$entity['aggregateRating']['reviewCount'] = '500'; //change according to the reviews you have
return $entity;
});
Hope this helps. Let us know if you need any other assistance.
Thanks.
Sorry, it’s surely not your fault but I don’t get it 🙈
What should be “aggregated” when there is no source to aggregate reviews from? I don’t understand where the reviews are taken from, if there is no review service being connected…
If we put in the reviews and amount of reviews etc. all by ourselves, manually, we could put in literally anything… completely faked reviews that are not existent…
How does Google prevent from those fake review stars in their SERP’s if I could put in anything I want manually?! 🤷🏻♂️
If we collect real reviews from our customers in Google reviews – how to fill out these real reviews into our SERP’s dynamically?
So if the count in den SERP’s says 10 for 10 reviews and we get a new one – how does the rich snippet get to know of this and gets updated to 11 and the new aggregated result? 🤔
Hello,
The reviews on your competitor site were not coming from Google My Business. They were added using the aggregateRating in the Product Schema. However, if you want to add the reviews from your Google reviews on your site then you can use a plugin like this one: https://wordpress.org/plugins/g-business-reviews-rating/
The plugin will fetch the Google reviews and will also add the review snippet to your page to show the stars in the SERPs.
Hope this helps. Let us know if you need any other assistance.
Ok, thank you very much, I’ll try this!
