Schema.org for a rental site with more than one apartment per address
-
I am looking for advices on how to best start adopting schema.org for an apartment rental site with more than one apartment per address.
I would like to get feedback and suggestions on my initial thoughts.
Here are the obvious ones:
- http://schema.org/Place for the address of the building an apartment is in.
- http://schema.org/ApartmentComplex for the unique page for each apartment.
Any thoughts or experiences you would like to share?
Thanks,
Adrien O'Leary

Schema helps a lot to set up and arrange the visual view data of the website. I have applied it to my Irwell Hill project.

Hi guys, Im working for a SaaA site that contain flatshare ads, would you let me know which schema would apply better?
Thanks

Kane, your link helped. Especially because it got me to discover http://www.productontology.org/!

I'm not familiar with it. Some decent info on it at http://semanticweb.com/schema-org-adds-additional-type-property_b30861, but not sure if that's helpful.
-
Kane, I appreciate the feedback and I know realize that there are no specific properties for Residence or AppartmentComplex. One question about additionalType. Any input on finding the right RDFa syntax for that property?
-
So, those are attributes for Things and then Places (a subset of Things). Because of that, they apply to subcategories. The current Schema.org structure apparently does not add any new attributes for Residences or Apartment Complexes. Obviously that may not be right, but I've seen this in other Schema.org categories that are missing attributes that would make sense to have.
-
Hi Kane, I appreciate the answer.
One additional question. Why are the properties listed at http://schema.org/Residence the same than the ones listed at http://schema.org/ApartmentComplex (while the latest one is a some kind of sub-type of the first one)?
Thanks,
Adrien O'Leary

http://schema.org/ApartmentComplex is going to be the correct formatting to use. That includes an implicit relationship to the Place markup based upon containedIn.
The number of apartments/suites/etc won't affect the Schema markup, as long as everything is on the same street number (e.g. 1234 Oak St).
However if the complex contains multiple buildings with separated street numbers (e.g. 1234 Oak St as well as 1237 Oak St) then that may affect your approach. In that event I'd probably choose the building that the rental office is located in (assuming that's onsite), and this is also going to have to match the address you're using for all of your citations across the internet.

Schema.org Article, itemprop keyword, what is it?
I've wanted to know the answer to this for a couple of years now and haven't found anyone ever talking about it. So here goes ... For schema.org markup on articles, http://schema.org/Article there's an itemprop for keywords: http://schema.org/keywords keywords

Canonical URL: http://schema.org/keywords
Keywords or tags used to describe this content. Multiple entries in a keywords list are typically delimited by commas. What's that do? Like if I use that markup with an article I publish on my site, will that get those words given that property keyword value? Will that affect SEO value? Do those replace what metatag keywords used to be? Or are they just like what metatag keywords are these days, no real value?0 -

301 Redirect to external site
Hi guys, We have a client who is getting their website redesigned through us. They are discontinuing couple of their services which will not get featured in the new site. They are fairly well ranked for these services and my client wishes to 301 redirect these pages to an external site owned by his friend so that they benefit out of the ranking. The question is: Will my client's website's general ranking get affected due to 301 redirecting to an external site? The external site is not spammy or red-flagged by Google (at the moment, at least). Thanks in advance!

Listing all services on one page vs separate pages per service
My company offers several generalized categories with more specific services underneath each category. Currently the way it's structured is if you click "Voice" you get a full description of each voice service we offer. I have a feeling this is shooting us in the foot. Would it be better to have a general overview of the services we offer on the "Voice" page that then links to the specified service? The blurb about the service on the overview page would be unique, not taken from the actual specific service's page.

HTML Site SEO (NO CMS)
I have got a client site, which is dated (2007) and has not been shifted to any recognised CMS yet. It is HTML based. Is it possible to SEO on such a site? Is it even worth it? If it is possible to do SEO on this, any suggestions will be highly appreciated. Thank you.

How to use canonical with mobile site to main site
I am pretty sure that the mobile version of the main site needs to be the same canonical link from what I understand. I am trying to find good docuementation that supports this. Even better if its from Google or Matt Cutts. I have a main domain like http://www.mydomain.com the mobile version of this is http://www.mydomain.com/m/ Should my canonical be rel="canonical" href="http://www.mydomain.com"/> for both these pages?

How long does it take for Google to see Changes to a site?
Hi, I have a low PR site (PR 1) that I am starting to work on. Ingeneral when you make changes to my site how long would it take Google to recognize and index those changes? The reason I am wondering is because the site I am working on had a lot of duplicate content (around 700 pages), I got rid of it all, but I wasn't sure how long it would take Google to spider all these pages and re-index them since the site is low PR. Thanks, Ken
