Have I set up my structured data correctly, the testing tool suggests not?
-
Hi,
I've recently marked up some Events for a client in hope that they'll appear as rich snippets in ther SERPS. I have access to their Google Search Console so used the Data Highlighter facility to mark them up, rather than the Raven plugin available for WordPress sites like this.
I completed this on 10th July and the snippets are yet to appear - I understand that this can take time and there are no guarantees - but as a novice it would be reassuring if someone can advise that I have done this correctly.
We did incidentally resubmit a sitemap after completing this task, but I'm not sure if that makes any difference.
I've read that it's the structured data testing tool that I need to use to test my markup, but when I input the urls below, the tool doesn't tell me a lot, which either suggests I've marked it up incorrectly, or don't know how to read it!

Ok, thanks for clarification, RDFA is a new one on me, but that makes sense now.
Thanks for taking the trouble - I'll sit tight and wait for Google then.

That's because you are using RDFA, if you were using microdata markup you would see itemscope and itemprop.

hello Massimiliano,
Thanks for coming back to me.
I'm still a little confused.
The tool you pointed me to is the one I was using.
I can see the breadcrumbs you refer to as well, but I'm not sure the posts are marked up correctly, despite the tool suggesting it's 'all good'.
When I look at the page source I can't see any 'itemscope' or 'itemprop' code, which I would have expected to see?
Any thoughts? Can anyone put my mind at ease?
Regards,
Nathan -
Test using the appropriate tool: https://developers.google.com/structured-data/testing-tool/
I tried with the first url you posted and breadcrumbs are there.

Hi guys i have some doubts with the correct URL structure for a new site. The question is about how show the city, the district and also the filters. I would do that: www.domain.com/category/city/disctict but maybe is better do that: **www.domain.com/category/city-district ** I also have 3 filters that are "individual/colective" "indoor/outdoor" and "young/adult" but that are not really interesting for the querys so where and how i put this filtters? At the end of the url showing these: **www.domain.com/cateogry/city/district#adult#outdoor#colective ** ? Well really i don't know what to do with the filters. Check if you could help me with that please. I also have a lof of interest in knowing if maybe is better use this combination **www.domain.com/category-city or domain.com/category/city **and know about the diference. Thank you very much!

Correct strategy for long-tail keywords?
Hi, We are selling log houses on our website. Every log house is listed as a "product", and this "product" consists of many separate parts, that are technically also products. For example a log house product consists of doors, windows, roof - and all these parts are technically also products, having their own content pages. The question is - Should we let google index these detail pages, or should we list them as noindex? These pages have no content, only the headline, which are great for long-tail SEO. We are probably the only manufacturer in the world who has a separate page for "log house wood beam 400x400mm". But otherwise these pages are empty. My question is - what should we do? Should we let google index them all (we have over 3600 of them) and maybe try to insert an automatic FAQ section to every one of them to put more content on the page? Or will 3600 low-content pages hurt our rankings? Otherwise we are ranking quite well. Thanks, Johan
