Since we currently don't have automatic integration with BBB, I will share an option with you on how you can manually collect and embed your BBB reviews:
Import BBB Reviews with a CSV File
This is a handy option if you have a lot of reviews. Here's how you can do it:
Step 1. First, you need to log in to your EmbedReviews account.
Step 2: In the left-hand menu, click 'Import Reviews.'
Step 3. Download the CSV template on the Import Reviews page
Step 4. Fill it in with your BBB reviews. You can do this manually or use a tool to fill in the template. Once you are ready, export the sheet file again in a CSV file. Here is how to do this in Google Sheets:
Click the top left 'File' menu > Click 'Download' > Choose 'Comma separated values (csv)'.
Step 5: Once you have your BBB reviews in the CSV template, go back to the import page and click 'Upload file,' make sure the Date format is the same as in your template, for example, YYYY-MM-DD, and click the top right 'Upload reviews' button.
And that's it! Your BBB reviews will appear on the selected source page.
