</div>

Paste this code on the page where you want to show stars in search results and modify the data according to you.

We can include this code as a json file also if we want.

Example code:

<script type="application/ld+json">
{
  "@context": "https://schema.org",
  "@type": "Product",
  "aggregateRating": {
    "@type": "AggregateRating",
    "ratingValue": "4",
    "reviewCount": "100"
  },

  "name": "Figmanet Blogs",
  "image": "figmanet.jpg",
  }
</script>
