Has anyone seen any benefit from using schema in the html of their website and gaining better oganic resultsi n Google?
Is tagging up pieces of content with this mark up language worth doing?

If you are ranking at 2nd/3rd position and sites above you do not have rich snippet it does makes sense to include them ASAP as it attracts eyeballs and clicks.
In short, Rich Snippet definitely help in improving CTR which is a part of ranking signal.

Hi thanks for the reply.
I have a holiday website with lots of resort guides and i could tag up certain bits of information. I am happy to do it if i feel there will be benefit in the organic rankings. Just looking to see if anyone has seen this with doing it?

Hi Paul,
We have implemented Rich Snippets on several projects and we can see quite good results in traffic growth (note that our clients websites have top 5 spots, so basically the click through ratio has grown).
Implementing Rich snippets it's quite an easy thing to do, so I would advice you to do it, because in time it will bring back those few hours of work.
If you need help with implementing send me a PM.
I hope this helped,
Istvan

Search Console - Should I request to index redirected URL or Mark as fixed?
Hi all, Many blog posts used to be showing 404s when doing crawl tests and in search console (despite being there when visited.) I realized it was an issue with URL structure. It used to be example.com/post-name I've fixed the issue by changing the URL structure in Wordpress so that they now follow the structure of example.com/post-type/post-name According to sitemaps, Google has now indexed all posts in /post-type/post-name. My question is what to do with crawl errors in Search Console that are still there for example.com/postname. When I fetch, I get a redirect status (which is accurate). At this point should I request to index or mark as fixed? Thank you!

Finally when I check structured data testing tool in that following details are available for products - @type, @id, image, name, url, sku, category, description, offers & offers all details, Brand & brands all details ...now after that there in "Is Related To" in that five products following details are there - @type, @id, image, name, url & offers that's it.

On our site by mistake some wrong links were entered and google crawled them. We have fixed those links. But they still show up in Not Found Errors. Should we just mark them as fixed? Or what is the best way to deal with them?
Some parameter was not sent. So the link was read as : null/city, null/country instead cityname/city

Secure and non-secure Schema.org Markup?
Is it possible to have schema.org itemtypes for both secure and insecure ports? I run a static-ish site made in Jekyll, and am implementing Schema.org on the individual pages. As a result, I'm trying to use the following: This doesn't validate with Google's Rich Snippet Tool. It doesn't register the Items as existing. Is there a good way to implement Schema.org in a static page hosted on both SSL and non-SSL ports?

Proper Schema usage for service based businesses?
Any thoughts on how schema markup should properly implemented on service base businesses? Let's say a plumber in Washington has a few locations. Obviously you would use schema mark up on their physical location information, but what about service areas? Are there ramifications to using the for service areas? It seems like you could potentially confuse the search engines. We are noticing a competitor use this on a newly developed website. We haven't seen any improvement in their rankings per say, but it may be a bit early to tell.

Hi everyone, Has anyone tried using the author schema on their Wordpress author page or on their G+ profile or on their Moz profile? Would it be a good idea to always use it where you publish?
