Schema.org
-
Has anyone successfully added the schema.org code to an ecommerce site?
Was it of any benefit to seo?

Thanks Lucek great answer, i went ahead and did it, it was pretty painless and i used the GWT to verify it was being read. Its reading the review counts, high and low values but doesnt display them as star ratings - maybe thats only for PPC. But the rest all works which is great.
I was surprised that an ecomm category page wont return any snippets as it contains multiple product tags (according to GWT), but this now puts my worries to one side about too many key word repetitions on the category pages as ive told google exactly why that is.
Here's to a succesful launch!

I managed to add this to one of my sites. I can't tell for sure that it did anything good to my rankings (I did too many changes at the time) but I can guarantee You that someday it will. Here's why:
- You show search engines that You put effort into creating Your site,
- structured data is yummy,
- someone, somewhere, someday (most probably already) will scan web for structured data and will use it in some way, potentially linking back to You.
Notice: I used GWT to verify validity of code on product pages, however GWT told me that it didn't found any rich data on the page. As I later found out it didn't mean that my code was invalid, but that GWT decided that the page isn't interesting enough to scan for structured data.

Schema Markup for eCommerce Category Pages?
My research indicates that applying an ItemList schema markup to our category pages is likely the best way to go. However, I've also ready that Google discourages schema markup on category pages. I'm just wondering if any of you have applied schema markup to your category pages and, if so, how did you do it? John,

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?

What is the right schema.org link for a web design / developer / mobile agency?
It seems strange that a group of web developers would make up an entire structured language to designate businesses by category and somehow forget to include companies like.... web developers. So I must be missing it, what is correct to use?

Seomoz.org Category and Tags practice
Hello, I have been checking seomoz sourcecode and architecture these days in order to learn and to apply it in my site but I havent managed to find "tags" at all. Just the "Posts by Categories" on the right sidebar. Is this the only way you are categorising content? In this case, the only way spiders have to find your content is via these category archive pages and the general sitemap? Thanks!

Schema.org for real estate portal
I am looking for advise on how to best start adopting schema.org for a real estate portal. Would like to get feedback and suggestions on my initial thoughts. Here are the obvious ones: 1. http://www.schema.org/RealEstateAgent(Thing > Organization > LocalBusiness > RealEstateAgent) Plan to use this to wrap realtors' information.We ll start with their profile page but possibly also on other pages with their information (e.g. listing page) 2. http://www.schema.org/SearchResultsPage(Thing > CreativeWork > WebPage > SearchResultsPage) This will mark search results pages where e.g. multiple listings of certain type in certain area are presented. 3. http://schema.org/WebPage(Thing > CreativeWork > WebPage) Pretty generic so we are thinking of using it on every page. e.g. significantLinks and breadcrumb objects seem like they could help in marking important links that will help search engines understand the site's information architecture better. I am not sure how to treat property listings Offer seems a good fit (http://www.schema.org/Offer) but not perfect. maybe it should be combined with place (http://www.schema.org/Place) http://www.schema.org/GeoCoordinates could also be used to mark each listing's location on the map. any thoughts or experiences you would like to share?
