    Hi guys,

    I'm using GR Rating plugin and for posts it works fine. The main problem I have , I don't know how to display Rich Snippet rating on google search for HomePage. For example:

    site.com/article.html is displayed with rating stars on Google

    but

    site.com - doesn't have any rating, stars on information on google.

    I have tried several plugins and index.php modification and still nothing.

    Please, help me with this issue :)

    Thanks in advance

    Stars are used for rating.
    Do you need to add rating for your homepage?

    Google fix it fast. For achieving these stars in SERP you definitely have to add dynamical generating (user generated) rating to your pages... Google cleared such stars from few of my sites in SERP recently... Many people have same issue with that.

    Firstly there are 2 kinds of stars exist (rating and reviews). Look at these 2 sites and analize... There are some breadcrumps for thoughts ;)

    One thing: following the Google guidelines You have to link to another (external) resource with a review or rating. Second site is for example...
