Product reviews are very important for any online business. Customer are more likely to buy if they see positive reviews for a product from previous shoppers. Picture reviews will help even more as they prove to potential customers’ authenticity of reviews.
For new dropships or online retailors it is difficult to get reviews in the beginning. They sell or resell products from other established retailors for example aliexpress. These products already have reviews. Our solution helps new shop owners to use those real reviews for their shops.
Our solution consists of following three components
- Taknalogy Reviews Plugin for WordPress. Click here for documentation.
- Taknalogy Reviews Management Dashboard. Click here for documentation.
- Taknalogy Aliexpress Reviews Importer is a Google Chrome extension. Click here for documentation.
Detailed documentation about these components can be found on their respective pages.
Let us run through an example to explain how this solution works. Let’s assume that we have a customer who want to use our solution on his website https://alterityshop.com.
Install Taknalogy Reviews Plugin
This plugin can be installed directly from WordPress website or from WordPress plugin dashboard. After it is installed and activated it will add a menu item to woocommerce product data tab as shown in the image below.

Shopkey and shopurl are also shown for this installation. You will need both of them to connect your shop to the Taknalogy Review Management Dashboard in the following steps.
Create Account
