A web design/development/SEO agency might use various schema types to enhance their online presence and provide structured data to search engines. Here are some schema types they could utilize:
Organization: This schema type provides basic information about the agency, such as its name, logo, contact details, and social media profiles. Schema.org link: Organization.
WebPage: To mark up individual web pages on their website, providing details such as the page's URL, title, and description. Schema.org link: WebPage.
Service: To specify the services offered by the agency, such as web design, web development, SEO optimization, digital marketing, etc. Schema.org link: Service.
ContactPoint: This schema type is used to provide contact information, including phone numbers, email addresses, and physical addresses. Schema.org link: ContactPoint.
BreadcrumbList: To indicate the hierarchical structure of the website's pages, helping search engines understand the site's navigation. Schema.org link: BreadcrumbList.
By implementing these schema types, the agency can improve their website's visibility in search results and provide users with more informative and engaging snippets.

If you have a WordPress website, you can use SEO Yoast, to add schema, i think that is what we used on our Bristol summerhouse website.

A web design/development/SEO agency could use several types of Schema markup to enhance the visibility and understanding of their services on search engines. Schema.org provides structured data markup that helps search engines better understand the content and context of a webpage. Here are a few Schema types that such an agency might consider using:
Organization: This Schema type provides general information about the agency, including its name, logo, contact information, and social media profiles. It helps search engines accurately represent the agency in search results and knowledge panels.WebSite: This Schema type is used to mark up information about the agency's website itself. It can include the site's URL, potential breadcrumb navigation, and site search functionality.
Service: The "Service" Schema type can be used to describe the various services the agency offers, such as web design, web development, SEO, digital marketing, etc. Each service can have its own set of details, including a description and pricing information.
LocalBusiness: If the agency has a physical location, the "LocalBusiness" Schema type can be used to provide details about the agency's address, opening hours, and geographic coordinates. This is particularly useful for local SEO.
Review: If the agency has received reviews from clients, using the "Review" Schema type can help highlight these reviews in search results. Positive reviews can enhance the agency's credibility.
FAQPage: If the agency has an FAQ section on their website, using the "FAQPage" Schema type can help structure the questions and answers in a way that search engines understand.
BreadcrumbList: If the agency's website has a clear breadcrumb navigation structure, the "BreadcrumbList" Schema type can help search engines understand the hierarchy of pages on the site.
-
A web design/development/SEO agency might use the "Organization" schema from schema.org. This schema helps define the agency's details, such as name, logo, contact information, and services offered. The schema.org link for the "Organization" schema is: https://schema.org/Organization

Best schema option for condos / condominiums?
Hey guys, I'm doing a review on some schema on some of our sites. Most of them are generic using LocalBusiness. There are a few more specific schemas I could use, but not sure what would be the most relevant. Wondering if any of you have a suggestion or ideas? https://schema.org/Residence https://schema.org/LodgingBusiness https://schema.org/ApartmentComplex or I could just stick with LocalBusiness. I'm leaning towards LodgingBusiness or ApartmentComplex.... but when I think of LodgingBusiness I think of something temporary / vacation type deal like hotels. Apartments... kind of self explanatory, a condominium isn't exactly an apartment but perhaps it is more comparable to an apartment than a hotel, motel or inn. What are you thoughts on this? Also, which "format" is better to use RDFa, microdata, or JSON-LD. Does it matter?

Does homepage SEO exist at all?
hi Just read a Yoast article explaining that the homepage should never be optimized for a specific keyword and should only be optimized for its business or brand name. i have a large site that I'd like to rank (or increase traffic for as I know people get irritated with that term now) for 'Campervan hire'. It has plenty of sub pages going after 'Campervan hire 'location'' for example. it makes sense to me for the homepage keyword - my core keyword - to be 'Campervan hire' and for the homepage to be optimised for this. However, the article I've just read (https://yoast.com/homepage-seo/) suggests a separate page for this keyword. What are your thoughts pls?? thanks

Phone number for SEO
We have had an interesting question from a client. They have asked if removing their phone number from their website would have an affect on their rankings. Our immediate answer was 'No' but it may affect the Brand, Usability and Customer experience by restricting the methods of contact. This then made us think that perhaps then it could have an effect in the long term. This situation is also complicated by the fact that they do not have a Google Local Plus account for operational, sensitivity reasons (they don't want to openly publicise their address) We believe that there shouldn't be any negative affect but thought we would open a discussion. Thanks in advance for any comments/ideas.

Duplicate Content when Using "visibility classes" in responsive design layouts? - a SEO-Problem?
I have text in the right column of my responsive layout which will show up below the the principal content on small devices. To do this I use visibility classes for DIVs. So I have a DIV with with a unique style text that is visible only on large screen sizes. I copied the same text into another div which shows only up only on small devices while the other div will be hidden in this moment. Technically I have the same text twice on my page. So this might be duplicate content detected as SPAM? I'm concerned because hidden text on page via expand-collapsable textblocks will be read by bots and in my case they will detect it twice?Does anybody have experiences on this issue?bestHolger

How many outbound links is too many outbound links?
As a part of our SEO strategy, we have been focusing on writing several high quality articles with unique content. In these articles we regularly link to other websites when they are high quality, authoritative sites. Typically, the articles are 500 words or more and have 3-5 outbound links, but in some cases there are as many as 7 or 8 outbound links. Before we get too carried away with outbound links, I wanted to get some opinions on how many outbound links we should be trying to include and more information on how the outbound links work. Do they pass our website's authority on to the other website? Could our current linking strategy cause future SEO problems? Finally, do you have any suggestions for guidelines we should be using? Thank you for your help!

Does schema.org assist with duplicate content concerns
The issue of duplicate content has been well documented and there are lots of articles suggesting to noindex archive pages in WordPress powered sites. Schema.org allows us to mark-up our content, including marking a components URL. So my question simply, is no-indexing archive (category/tag) pages still relevant when considering duplicate content? These pages are in essence a list of articles, which can be marked as an article or blog posting, with the url of the main article and all the other cool stuff the scheme gives us. Surely Google et al are smart enough to recognise these article listings as gateways to the main content, therefore removing duplicate content concerns. Of course, whether or not doing this is a good idea will be subjective and based on individual circumstances - I'm just interested in whether or not the search engines can handle this appropriately.
