    I'm researching Schema opportunities for a bank, but besides the shema markup available today (like bankorcreditunion) and developments with FIBO, I can find no answer as to the effect of tagging interest rates and such in terms of SERP/CTR performance or visibility. Does anyone have a case study to share or some insight on the matter?

      Hi there

      Here are a couple of great links:
      2015 Local Search Ranking Factors
      How to Perform the Ultimate Local SEO Audit

      Both of those will help you immensely. I would definitely markup branches and also take a look at Moz Local's bulk upload that will help you load all of your branch addresses to local listing aggregators. From there, you can manage your listings and update/remove them as needed.

      I would review the above links and start focusing on your local SEO efforts. But I would still markup as much as you can that's relevant to the business and searches that are happening around it's industry/area.

      Hope this helps! Good luck!

        Thanks, that was my sentiment all along. Unfortunately my client asks for quick wins. With no clear data in the banking sector to show a difference with/without markup, I can't really make a compelling case. One area where there might be a quick win is in marking up all their branches addresses. For some local searches they rank pretty badly (like >10) and don't show up in the first three local results, do you think that could make a difference in google local snippets? If you have some more links for case srudies I would greatly appreciate them!

          Hi there

          I'd take a look at this resource. There is some markup for interest rate examples there that I would check out. Remember that the benefit of Schema implementation helps search engines understand the content that lives on your website and return better results. They also reward sites that utilize Schema. If anything, more markup is better because it shows you're putting in the effort and when searches/rich & table snippets begin to appear for interest rates, you'll be one of the first to start appearing. I'd do it and reap the benefits!

          Hope this helps! Good luck!

            Target: blank. Does it make an SEO difference?

            I've notice many sites MOZ included no longer use the target: blank attribute. I think that's what it's called. Basically when a link on your site opens a new tab in the browser as opposed to replacing the browser window you are in.  Given that MOZ think of everything, I would love to hear opinions on this.

            Do Abbreviations Hurt SEO Results?

            We have certain products that we've abbreviated since it's a bit too long.  For example, the word Fair Trade Organic is one of our categories and we abbreviate it to FTO. If I put FTO  on our meta tag titles and links instead of the actual word, would that provide a weaker result?

            Is it worth adding schema markup to articles?

            I know things like location, pagination, breadcrumbs, video, products etc have value in using schema markup. What about things like articles though? Is it worth all the work involved in having the pages mark up automatically? How does this effect SEO, and is it worthwhile? Thanks, Spencer

            What are your best tips for SEO on a shopping cart?

            So, I am working on a shopping cart platform (X-Cart) and so far don't like it. Also, the web designer is not someone I've worked with before and he is understandably conservative about access--which limits what I can and cannot do from the back end. One of the things I like to do is include text for the search engines. However, based on conversion, etc., I think the product images on a landing page (main brand info with specific products that show up) should show up first to move toward conversion first. I am thinking of adding the text below the product images on the brand pages so the viewer sees the products first while still keeping the content seo. My practice is to use between 300-350 words minimum on a page. Just wondering what best practices you have for a shopping cart. Care to share? Any tips or hints? Thoughts on what I might do that would be most effective? As always, thanks in advance for your sage advice!

            First click on SEO redirecting to a competitor site?

            I just experienced something VERY odd and wondered if any of you had an idea of what it might be. When I did a search on Google and clicked the top SEO listing I was taken to a competitor of the number 1 listed site i.e. NOT the site I clicked on. When I clicked the back button and clicked it again, I was taken to the correct site. This happened with two different searches and I was taken to two different sites. Could this be a clever/sinister cookie implemented by the competitor; a site I frequent regularly? Could this be malware implemented by an affiliate? Could this be a Google glitch?

            Where should a knowledge base be hosted for max. SEO benefit?

            A client would like to set up a knowledge base to work in conjunction with their website and we are tossing up whether to go with a hosted solution (and therefore set up as a subdomain) or find a solution that we host on the clients domain (which will presumably have more SEO benefit).  We are leaning towards the latter (although are mindful that we need to balance the client’s desire for a quality KB solution).  Appreciate your feedback.
