If you’ve earned strong reviews on Clutch.co, you’re sitting on powerful social proof — and it’s doing zero work for you if it’s only visible on Clutch’s own platform. This article will help you learn how to add Clutch reviews to WordPress, so you can embed those reviews directly on your site and put your credibility in front of visitors at the exact moment they’re deciding whether to hire you.
Displaying reviews can help your business build trust with potential customers. By showcasing authentic testimonials, you establish authority in your industry and influence the buying decisions of those considering your services.
And it doesn’t stop at your own profile. WP Review Slider Pro can pull reviews from any public Clutch.co profile — making it just as useful for agencies showcasing a vendor partner, consultants highlighting tools they recommend, or comparison pages featuring multiple providers side by side.
This guide walks you through how to display Clutch.co reviews on WordPress using WP Review Slider Pro, step by step, so you can learn the process easily, building on broader best practices for displaying customer reviews on WordPress.
Why Display Clutch Reviews on Your Website?
Clutch is one of the most trusted B2B review platforms in the world. A high rating there carries real weight with potential clients evaluating IT, marketing, design, and development agencies. But most visitors never make it to your Clutch profile.
Bringing those reviews to your own site means:
- Higher conversion rates — Verified third-party reviews reduce buyer hesitation directly on your service and landing pages. Reviews influence a customer’s choice by validating their decision to work with you, which helps generate more leads.
- Stronger SEO signals — Fresh, keyword-rich review content adds relevant text to your pages that search engines reward.
- Verified credibility — Clutch verifies every reviewer’s identity and project details, making your testimonials more trustworthy than hand-picked quotes. Collecting client feedback through these reviews not only builds credibility but also helps generate new leads for your business.
- Flexibility across use cases — Display your own reviews, a partner’s reviews, or reviews for any company with a public Clutch profile — all from the same plugin. Providers with a Clutch Verified subscription can choose which reviews to highlight in specific widgets, allowing you to showcase your best testimonials or projects.
Adding a widget allows potential customers to view your reviews without leaving your website, and Clutch widgets automatically update to display your most recent ratings and reviews.
What You’ll Need
- A WordPress website
- WP Review Slider Pro installed and activated
- The Clutch.co profile URL of any company you want to feature (e.g., https://clutch.co/profile/company-name) and, if you’re expanding beyond Clutch, a strategy for creating a Google review slider in WordPress using the same plugin
The profile doesn’t have to be yours. As long as it’s publicly accessible on Clutch, the plugin can retrieve its reviews.
Step-by-Step: How to Add Clutch Reviews to WordPress
Step 1 — Install WP Review Slider Pro
From your WordPress dashboard, go to Plugins → Add New and search for WP Review Slider Pro, or upload the plugin zip file directly. Activate the plugin once installed.
Step 2 — Navigate to Get Reviews
In your WordPress admin sidebar, open the WP Review Slider Pro interface and navigate to the Get Reviews section. This is the hub for connecting all your review sources.
Step 3 — Add Clutch as a Review Source
Scroll through the list of supported platforms and click the Clutch button. You’ll be taken to the Clutch setup page.
In the URL field, paste the Clutch profile URL of the company whose reviews you want to display — whether that’s your own company, a client, a technology partner, or any other publicly listed provider. The plugin will automatically strip any extra query parameters and format the URL correctly.
The plugin can automatically collect and import reviews from Clutch, making it easy to gather and showcase testimonials on your site.
Step 4 — Download the Reviews
Click Download Reviews. The plugin will connect to that Clutch profile and pull in all published reviews, including:
- Reviewer name
- Star rating
- Review date
- Reviewer location
- The review text (the highlighted summary quote each reviewer writes)
All feedback is saved and imported directly into your WordPress site, ensuring you have a complete record of client feedback for your online reputation and lead generation efforts.
The download typically completes in a few seconds. If the profile has more than 10 reviews, the plugin will automatically paginate through all pages to retrieve the complete review history.
Step 5 — Create a Review Template
Go to WP Review Slider Pro → Add Template. Choose a display style — slider, grid, list, badge, or masonry — and select Clutch as your review source. There are 16 different widget styles (options) available, so you can find one that matches your brand, and you can preview real-world examples of review sliders and grids to inspire your layout choices.
Customize the appearance to match your brand: you can adjust colors, font size, number of reviews to show, star style, and more. This allows you to fully customize the colors of your Clutch review widget to fit your brand style. You can filter by minimum star rating to ensure only the strongest reviews appear. If you have a Clutch Verified subscription, you also have the option to highlight specific reviews in your widgets.
Step 6 — Embed the Reviews on Your Site
Once your template is saved, the plugin gives you a shortcode that looks like this:
[wp-review-slider-pro id=”1”]
Paste that shortcode into any:
- Page or post — Using the WordPress block editor, add a Shortcode block and paste it in.
- Widget area — Go to Appearance → Widgets, add a Shortcode widget, and paste it there.
- Theme template — Use do_shortcode(‘[wp-review-slider-pro id=”1”]’) in your PHP template files.
Keeping Clutch Reviews Up to Date
As new reviews appear on a Clutch profile, you’ll want your site to stay current. WP Review Slider Pro handles this automatically. Under Get Reviews, you can enable automatic cron downloads for your Clutch source. The plugin will check for new reviews on a schedule and pull them in without any manual steps.
Creative Ways to Use Any Public Clutch Profile
Because the plugin works with any public Clutch URL — not just your own — there are more use cases than most people realize, and you can experiment with different ways to showcase customer reviews in WordPress using the same toolkit:
Showcase your own agency’s reputation. The most common use case. Pull your own Clutch reviews onto your homepage, services pages, or contact page to convert visitors who are on the fence.
Feature a technology or platform partner. If you recommend a tool or SaaS product that has a strong Clutch presence, embed their verified reviews on your resources or tools page to strengthen your recommendation with third-party proof.
Build a vendor comparison page. Add reviews from multiple Clutch profiles side by side to help your audience evaluate their options — a high-value content format that earns backlinks and ranks well for “[category] comparison” searches.
Support client case studies. If a client has strong Clutch reviews, embed them alongside your case study for that client. It reinforces the project outcome with independent verification.
Create a “trusted partners” page. Agencies that work with a roster of vetted subcontractors or technology partners can feature each partner’s Clutch reviews to demonstrate the quality of their wider network.
Tips for Getting the Most Out of Clutch Reviews
Place reviews near conversion points. The most effective spots are your homepage hero section, services pages, and pricing or contact pages — anywhere a visitor is close to making a decision.
Use the badge widget. WP Review Slider Pro’s badge template displays an overall Clutch rating (e.g., 5.0 stars from 21 reviews) as a compact, always-visible element — perfect for a sidebar or footer.
Filter by service type. If you offer multiple services, create separate templates for each service page showing only the reviews that are most relevant to what that visitor is considering.
Combine with other review sources. The plugin supports Google, Facebook, Yelp, and 100+ other platforms. Displaying a combined review count from multiple verified sources is a great way to build trust and credibility, as it gives a broader picture of your reputation, especially if you’re displaying reviews in Elementor on WordPress using flexible widgets.
