EKomi widget and Schema.org

[Loui-60570]

Hi Everyone,

I bet everybody knows eKomi. For their customers they supply widgets (javascript) which you can add to your html and displays the widget to your visitors.

Some webshop alter the widget a bit and add extra html to the bottom of the widget:

Company Name receives a 7.4 out of 10 out of 1100 reviews

This code is dynamic and pulls data from eKomi.com.

I was wondering what you guys think of this, is this spam? Will Google see it as spam?
Searching for "Company name" in Google will result in a SERP with both the company and eKomi on #1 and #2 with the same snippets based on the reviews on eKomi.com

Let me know

Rich snippet are supported by google and are not spam. As long as you follow google guidelines.

you dont think it's weird you could get 10 results with snippets all based on 1 source?

Hi Loui,
Like Max says: " as long as you follow the google guidelines". I once set this up with trust pilot. We did n't had any problems with Google and snippets where shown in the serps.

Grtz, Leonie.

You mentioned 1 result from the site and 1 from ekomi, which is not weird, the same review of the website on both the website and ekomi is the norm. What are the other 8 to get to 10 results?
