How to properly do reviews with Rich Text Snippets
-
I am trying to find out the best way to do this.
Do you use hreview?
Thanks,
-
Yes. You can find a helpful example of markup for multiple reviews at the bottom of the schema.org Review documentation.
Another resource that might be helpful is this SEOmoz post from last year: The Lowdown on Structured Data and Schema.org - Your Questions Answered!

If you had a testimonials page with 10 of them on there. Woudl you do them all in the schema.org markup?
-
hReview is just another way to markup a review. Specifically, it's the microformat way to markup a review. Here's the hReview specification: http://microformats.org/wiki/hreview
Google still supports microformat markup, but I recommend using schema.org markup because it is supported by Google, Bing, and Yahoo! (and it is the standard that those search engines are emphasizing for the future).
Once you've implemented the markup, use Google's Rich Snippet Tool to test if the markup is functioning correctly.

Thanks. I had used that code before and it didn't work. Maybe I had something wrong. Why is the difference with using HREVIEW?

Hi Dave,
Here's a great resource for generating rich snippets for reviews: Schema Creator for "Review"
That page includes the official Google video about rich snippets for reviews, helpful pointers to Google help pages, the schema.org documentation for the Review object, and a code generator for review markup.
I hope that helps

Introduce customer reviews and ratings onto our product pages
Hi, I'm looking to introduce historical customer reviews onto our product pages but i want an opinion on whether a product page that's indexed will jump from 0 reviews to possible 30+, what if any problems that could arise from this.. For a bit of background, we've been collecting customer reviews/ratings since 2015 on our internal system. I'm only looking to start using feedback from 2020 onwards. The current set up is that the product page will display the latest 30 reviews, on the same page is a link that will take the user to another page where they can review all the customer feedback. I'm using Google Schema to markup the text to ensure it is firstly understood by google and displays correctly too. So back to my original question. Will an e-commerce product page that currently has no customer reviews that is indexed, been seen differently if when the next time it's crawled its found to have, say 30+ reviews? Are there any implications this way? What's your experience? I look forward to reading your feedback.

How to properly change your website's address in Webmaster Tools?
Hi There,We've launched a new website and as part of the update have changed our domain name - now we need to tell Google of the changes: Both sites were verified in Webmaster Tools From the old site's gear icon, we chose "Change of address" As part of the "Change of address" checklist Google presented, we added 301 redirects to redirect the old domain to the new one But now that the 301 redirects are in place, Google can no longer verify the old site And because it can no longer verify the old site, Google won't let us complete the change of address form How do we tell Google of the change of address in this instance - and has anyone else encountered this?CheersBen

Wistia video rich snippet thumbnail images
Hi there, I just wondered if anyone on the forum had experience of using Wistia video rich snippets and how to control the thumbnail image that appears in SERPs? I have selected a thumbnail with the video information on the Wistia account, but a different one actually appears in the results pages (the image being used doesn't actually appear on the page at all, but it is elsewhere on the site). Has anyone had anything similar and what did you do the control the thumbnail being used? Thanks!

Proper method of consolidating https to http?
A client has an application area of the site (a directory) that has a form and needs to be secured with ssl. The vast majority of the site is static, and does not need to be secured. We have experienced situations where a visitor navigates the site as https which then throws security errors. We want to keep static visitors on http; (and crawlers) and only have visits to the secure area display as ssl. How is this best accomplished? Our developer wants to add a rule to the global configuration file in php that uses a 301 redirect to ensure static pages are accessed as http, and the secure directory is accessed as https. Is the the proper protocol? Are there any SEO considerations we should make? Thanks.

How should I properly setup my .htaccess file?
I have searched google for 'how to setup .htaccess file' and it seems that every website has some variation. For example: RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^yoursite.com RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.yoursite.com/$1 [R=permanent,L] On SEOMOZ someone posted this: RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.yoursite.com [NC] RewriteRule (.*) http://www.yoursite.com/$1 [L,R=301] On yet another website, I found this: RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^your-site.com$ [NC] RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://your-site.com/$1 [L,R=301] As you can see there are slight differences. Which one do I use? I'm on Apache CentOS and I have HTML5 websites and several Joomla! wesites. Would the HTACCESS File be different for both?

Anchor text diversity
I understand that getting links to a site all with the same anchor text is probably not a good thing, but what is a good ratio of anchor text diversity? should about 60% of the links pointing to a page that i am trying to rank be the keyword i am trying to rank for? or is it more like 20%?
