Can you mark up a page using Schema.org and Facebook Open Graph?
-
Is it possible to use both Schema.org and Facebook Open Graph for structured data markup?
On the Google Webmaster Central blog, they say, "you should avoid mixing the formats together on the same web page, as this can confuse our parsers."

Here's a good place to start: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/concepts/opengraph/.

Can anyone direct me to a source on how to apply the Facebook Open Graph markups?
Thanks!

That's helpful. Thank you, Dan.

I was under the impression that Open Graph data is completely separate from structured data, at least in the way Google is talking about.
There are quite a few examples of websites using both without any issue, for example:
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/film/filmreviews/9257722/Dark-Shadows-review.html
This review features extensive Open Graph data, in addition to plenty of additional markup data, and this does not affect the rich snippets data which can be found by searching under the keywords "dark shadows review".

I also just found this comment on a GWT support page (http://support.google.com/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=1093493
"You can use microformats, microdata, or RDFa to mark up your content. However, you should pick one markup standard and use it consistently across the page."
I'm concerned using both will affect our ability to get--and keep--rich snippets in Google.

I too would like to know this, because I've been doing it for months now. I haven't noticed any rankings issues, mind you, so perhaps it isn't really a big deal?
Providing the data is the same, I can't see it hurting. I will be following this topic with much interest.

Can Anybody Understand This ?
Hey guyz,
Technical SEO | | atakala
These days I'm reading the paperwork from sergey brin and larry which is the first paper of Google.
And I dont get the Ranking part which is: "Google maintains much more information about web documents than typical search engines. Every hitlist includes position, font, and capitalization information. Additionally, we factor in hits from anchor text and the PageRank of the document. Combining all of this information into a rank is difficult. We designed our ranking function so that no particular factor can have too much influence. First, consider the simplest case -- a single word query. In order to rank a document with a single word query, Google looks at that document's hit list for that word. Google considers each hit to be one of several different types (title, anchor, URL, plain text large font, plain text small font, ...), each of which has its own type-weight. The type-weights make up a vector indexed by type. Google counts the number of hits of each type in the hit list. Then every count is converted into a count-weight. Count-weights increase linearly with counts at first but quickly taper off so that more than a certain count will not help. We take the dot product of the vector of count-weights with the vector of type-weights to compute an IR score for the document. Finally, the IR score is combined with PageRank to give a final rank to the document. For a multi-word search, the situation is more complicated. Now multiple hit lists must be scanned through at once so that hits occurring close together in a document are weighted higher than hits occurring far apart. The hits from the multiple hit lists are matched up so that nearby hits are matched together. For every matched set of hits, a proximity is computed. The proximity is based on how far apart the hits are in the document (or anchor) but is classified into 10 different value "bins" ranging from a phrase match to "not even close". Counts are computed not only for every type of hit but for every type and proximity. Every type and proximity pair has a type-prox-weight. The counts are converted into count-weights and we take the dot product of the count-weights and the type-prox-weights to compute an IR score. All of these numbers and matrices can all be displayed with the search results using a special debug mode. These displays have been very helpful in developing the ranking system. "0 -

Banned Page
I have been using a 3rd party checker on indexed pages in google. It has shown several banned pages. I type the page in and it comes up. But it is nowhere to be found for me to delete it. It is not in the wordpress pages. It also shows up in the duplicate content section in my campaigns in moz.com. I can find the page to delete it. If it is banned then I do not want to redirect it to the correct page. Any ideas on how to fix this?

How to handle sitemap with pages using query strings?
Hi, I'm working to optimize a site that currently has about 5K pages listed in the sitemap. There are not in face this many pages. Part of the problem is that one of the pages is a tool where each sort and filter button produces a query string URL. It seems to me inefficient to have so many items listed that are all really the same page. Not to mention wanting to avoid any duplicate content or low quality issues. How have you found it best to handle this? Should I just noindex each of the links? Canonical links? Should I manually remove the pages from the sitemap? Should I continue as is? Thanks a ton for any input you have!
