How should I implement FAQs?
-
My client is ranked #3 for their primary keyword and we want to add FAQs that are educational (ie, related to the technology, not specifically to the company’s products or how to work with the company). Should I add the FAQs to the existing ranking content page? Or to a new dedicated “keyword FAQs” page? I have a LOT, about 40 questions and 4000+words of answer content.
And two secondary questions:
- Many of the FAQs have expanded content on other pages throughout the site. Is it okay to link to that internal content?
- Is it okay to have multiple FAQ pages? So keyword1 FAQs, keyword2 FAQs...?
Thanks so much!

Hi Dana,
You can flag that comment, but I do not see that Moz is taking any actions against these accounts.

Can I notify someone of spam responses??

Hi Dana,
I do not think you can outrank Wikipedia. I would add the FAQs to existing pages.

Thanks Ross,
The internal linking would be within an answer and link to more detailed content on the topic. My goal is to get them to #1 or 2 for a relatively competitive keyword (damn Wikipedia is #1). Do you think it's better to add the FAQs to the existing ranking page? Or a separate page?
Thank you!

Hi there,
You can use an FAQ generator if you are not a technical person. However, I do not think that internal linking to other FAQs will work. Yes, just add FAQ Schema Mark up to your existing content and to your new content pages. It is ok to have many FAQs on your website.

HTTPS - implementation question
Hello, I am looking at a site on which they haven't 301'd http to https, so each URL is there whether you have http or https at the beginning. Why would a site owner not 301 to https? Is there any logical reason not to use 301? This particular website is simply using a canonical tag to point to the https version of each URL.

Implementing Multiple Itemprop Elements in a Single Span
Hi All, I'm trying to figure out whether or not my developer is properly implementing Itemprop elements in code. Here is an example of where my confusion lies: "If you're taking an itemprop=" name drugClass" itemtype="http://schema.org/DrugClass">antiepileptic drug" When the span opens both recommended itemprops "name" and "drugclass" are listed together. Does this allow both to be properly read or is it effectively creating an itemprop that does not exist? Thanks!

Proper CDN Implementation
I am working with a site that is using the Cloudflare CDN to deliver their images. The problem is that the URLs for the images are all cloudflare URLs (cloudflare.com/example-filename.png). We want to use a cname to change the image URLs to be on a subdomain of their site to take advantage of the SEO strength. Currently, they get a high percentage of traffic from image search and Google is directing users to their site when returning images hosted on Cloudflare, so I am apprehensive about making changes. I'm curious if anyone has any experience with this or has any insight on how Google will handle it. Will the longer term benefits out way any short term drop in traffic from image search? WIll there be a drop in image search? Any thoughts or experiences are appreciated. Thanks in advance.
