I am implementing schema ratings and reviews on the same page. Users can add a star rating or add a review with a star rating. When this happens I combining the two and outputtng the ratingvalue.

I can get them both working using the google data testing tool with reviewCount or ratingCount. Though I am wondering which is better to use, the reviewCount or ratingCount, or it doesn't matter?

Cheers

Both are different.

reviewCount: The count of total number of reviews.

ratingCount: The count of total number of ratings.

ratingCount: The total number of ratings for the item on your site. At least one of ratingCount or reviewCount is required.

reviewCount: Specifies the number of people who provided a review with or without an accompanying rating. At least one of ratingCount or reviewCount is required.
