Add Schema Markup to WordPress for Better SEO

Getting Ready to Release WooCommerce Integration Add-on

Published:

Great news for all WooCommerce plugin users, we are working hard to integrate our WPRichSnippets (WPRS) plugin with the WooCommerce to provide better experience and help you even sell more.

Due to the way how WooCommerce and our WPRS plugin works, some conflict happen and leads to a broken Product pages layout, so using our plugin wasn’t a good option for Woo users.

Well, this has been changed, once we release our new WooCommerce add-on, you will be able to perfectly enable WPRS features to work along with WooCommerce and enjoy advanced reviews and ratings features.

We are on the process of preparing our add-on files to get it ready for release. We don’t have an estimate time, but I can say it’s only a matter of a few days.

Why you should use our WooCommerce add-on?

WooCommerce has a built-in user reviews functionality, it’s simple and clean, you can pretty much use it. However, many of our members were asking us to make WPRS work nicely with Woo so they can have these features enabled of their sites:

  • User reviews with Criteria fields
  • User Votes

So, we’ve made this possible, and it take only a couple of clicks.

We’ve tried to make things work out of the box, and with less effort from your side. This because we know that many sites out there are having hundreds and sometimes thousands of products, and no one want to be involved in the process of going across these pages and enable reviews manually.

Demo Site

We’ve got a new WooCommerce demo site to show off the features you can add with WPRS + WooCommerce add-on, here is a couple of links that you can view:

I hope this gives you a clear view on how the WooCommerce add-on will work. We are open for any feedback or questions, so add a comment and don’t be shy!
