Ogranization Schema/Microformat for a content/brand website | Travel

Hi,
One of our clients have a website specific to a place, for eg. California Tourism in which they publish local information related to tourism, blogs & other useful content. I want to understand how useful is to publish Organization Schema on such website mentioning the actual Organization, which in this case is a Travel Agency? Or any other schema would fit in for such websites?

This of Schema as a unique set of information for each landing page. If you think the Schema is a general thing applied to all pages you are mistaken.
Each page should be set with its own unqiue schema.

Hi,
Implementing schema markup, including Organization Schema, can be very beneficial for your client's website, especially in the context of a travel agency focused on a specific region like California Tourism. Here are some key points to consider:
Enhanced Visibility: Using Organization Schema helps search engines understand the website better, potentially enhancing visibility in search results. It provides essential information about the travel agency, such as its name, logo, contact details, and more.
Credibility and Trust: Displaying structured data about the organization can enhance credibility and trust with visitors. It shows that the website is backed by a legitimate travel agency, which can reassure potential tourists looking for reliable information and services.
Improved Local SEO: Schema markup can significantly boost local SEO efforts. Including detailed information about the organization, like location and contact information, helps search engines deliver more relevant local search results.
Rich Snippets: Schema can enable rich snippets, which are more engaging and informative search results. This can increase click-through rates as users are more likely to click on results that stand out.
For a website focused on tourism, it might also be useful to explore other types of schema, such as Local Business Schema, Tourist Attraction Schema, and BlogPosting Schema. Each of these can provide additional context and detail to search engines, further enhancing SEO performance.

Hi,
One of our clients have a website specific to a place, for eg. California Tourism in which they publish local information related to tourism, blogs & other useful content. I want to understand how useful is to publish Organization Schema on such website mentioning the actual Organization, which in this case is a Travel Agency? Or any other schema would fit in for such websites?Hello,
Integrating the Organization Schema on a website dedicated to California Tourism, especially when operated by a Travel Agency, can be beneficial for several reasons. The Organization Schema, structured data markup that provides search engines with information about an organization, can enhance the way search engines understand and display your website's content in search results.
Here are some advantages of implementing the Organization Schema for a California Tourism website associated with a Travel Agency:
Search Engine Visibility:
The Organization Schema helps search engines better understand the context of your website. It provides specific details about your travel agency, such as its name, location, contact information, and other relevant details.
This improved understanding can contribute to better search engine visibility, making it easier for potential visitors to find your site when searching for California tourism-related information.
Rich Snippets:By implementing the Organization Schema, you increase the chances of your website appearing as a rich snippet in search results. Rich snippets provide users with more information directly on the search results page, making your listing more attractive and informative.
Trust and Credibility:Including structured data like Organization Schema can enhance the credibility of your travel agency. When search engines display detailed information about your organization, users are more likely to trust and click on your website.
Local SEO:For a website focused on California Tourism, local SEO is crucial. The Organization Schema allows you to specify your agency's location, which can positively impact local search results.
While Organization Schema is important, it's also worth considering other relevant schemas depending on the content of your website. For a tourism-focused site, you might also want to explore the following schemas:TouristAttraction Schema:
This schema can be used to markup specific tourist attractions in California, providing additional context to search engines about the key points of interest.
BlogPosting Schema:If your website publishes blogs, using the BlogPosting schema can help search engines understand the structure of your blog content, potentially improving its visibility.
Always ensure that your schema implementations align with the guidelines provided by schema.org and search engine best practices to maximize their effectiveness. - topic:timeago_earlier,5 years

Implement schemas certainly can help you to gain some visibility but there are many factors to keep in mind if you go to the site https://schema.org/ you will notice that there tons of options. So not all the schemas available are supported by Google. In Fact, in your case, you should focus on schemas supported by Google, Facebook, Pinterest etc.
Here you can find more information about the schemas supported by Google and Facebook
- https://developers.google.com/search/docs/guides/mark-up-content
- https://www.facebook.com/business/help/1175004275966513
So if you are working on a travel agency these are some schemas available for your content
- Local Business
- Articles
- Reviews
Also, there are schemas for the business info such as
- logo
- contact info
- location
- social profiles

Someone redirected his website to ours
Hi all, I have strange issue as someone redirected website http://bukmachers.pl to ours https://legalnibukmacherzy.pl We don't know exactly what to do with it. I checked backlinks and the website had some links which now redirect to us. I also checked this website on wayback machine and back in 2017 this website had some low quality content but in 2018 they made similar redirection to current one but to different website (our competitor). Can such redirection be harmful for us? Should we do something with this or leave it, as google stop encouraging to disavow low quality links.

Hi Does anyone know if Google prefers paragraphs over content in a table, or doesn't it make much difference?

Content Below the Fold
Hi I wondered what the view is on content below the fold? We have the H1, product listings & then some written content under the products - will Google just ignore this? I can't hide it under a tab or put a lot of content above products - so I'm not sure what the other option is? Thank you

Having 2 brands with the same content - will this work from an SEO perspective
Hi All, I would love if someone could help and provide some insights on this. We're a financial institution and have a set of products that we offer. We have recently joined with another brand and will now be offering all our products to their customers. What we are looking to do is have 1 site that masks the content for both sites so it appears as there are 2 seperate brands with different content - in fact we have a main site and then a sister brand that offers the same products. Is there anyway to do this so when someone searches for Credit Card from Brand A it is indexed under Brand A and same when someone searched for Credit Card from Brand B it is indexed under Brand B. The one thing is we would not want to rel:can the pages nor be penalised by googles latest PR algorithm. Hope someone can help! Thanks Dave

Should brand/company be included in meta title?
Is there any point/benefit/requirement in using brand/company name in the meta title, I realise search engines like Google prefer brand focused pages, However it is unlikely that someone would be including the company in our search terms. Any thoughts?

Splitting one Website into 2 Different New Websites with 301 redirects, help?
Here's the deal. My website stbands.com does fairly well. The only issue it is facing a long term branding crisis. It sells custom products and sporting goods. We decided that we want to make a sporting goods website for the retail stuff and then a custom site only focusing on the custom stuff. One website transformed and broken into 2 new ones, with two new brand names. The way we are thinking about doing this is doing a lot of 301 redirects, but what do we do with the homepage (stbands.com) and what is the best practice to make sure we don't lose traffic to the categories, etc.? Which new website do we 301 the homepage to? It's rough because for some keywords we rank 3 or 4 times on the first page. Scary times, but something must be done for the long term. Any advise is greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance. We are set for a busy next few months 🙂

Posing QU's on Google Variables "aclk", "gclid" "cd", "/aclk" "/search", "/url" etc
I've been doing a bit of stats research prompted by read the recent ranking blog http://www.seomoz.org/blog/gettings-rankings-into-ga-using-custom-variables There are a few things that have come up in my research that I'd like to clear up. The below analysis has been done on my "conversions". 1/. What does "/aclk" mean in the Referrer URL? I have noticed a strong correlation between this and "gclid" in the landing page variable. Does it mean "ad click" ?? Although they seem to "closely" correlate they don't exactly, so when I have /aclk in the referrer Url MOSTLY I have gclid in the landing page URL. BUT not always, and the same applies vice versa. It's pretty vital that I know what is the best way to monitor adwords PPC, so what is the best variable to go on? - Currently I am using "gclid", but I have about 25% extra referral URL's with /aclk in that dont have "gclid" in - so am I underestimating my number of PPC conversions? 2/. The use of the variable "cd" is great, but it is not always present. I have noticed that 99% of my google "Referrer URL's" either start with:
