Rich Snippets
-
Hi guys,
Working with a client that we did not design, build or code their website. And further more they are happy with their website, and to be fair, its all fine.
We are there to try help them improve their poor overall ranking positions website contains an e-commerce solution and as part of the project we are implementing Rich Snippets.
Anytime we have used Rich Snippets, we have always followed Google's guidelines and well structured each product page to adhere to how Google advise. (we have also designed and coded the clients website in these cases, or indeed restructured certain pages).
Problem with this website is the product layout is all over the place.
So my question for people who have used Rich Snippets, have you ever deviated from the layout as advised by Google
For example, with this clients current structure ,we would need to open the product snippet like example below, mark up what we want to use, but between the opening and closing tags, we have content that is not being used for Rich Snippets
Their Product£39Client has a section here containing information we will not use for rich snippets<.div>Anther section containing more irrelevant stuffProduct DescriptionProduct ID: SKUCode
<--- Close Schema product ---->
I have tested the above structure out with Google's tool, and well its finding all the rich content fine, I am just worried that the two divs in-between the opening and closing tag for the Product Div may cause problems.
Has anyone deviated from the exact flow as outlined by Google and still got their snippets displayed fine
Thanks in advance
John

Great question. I actually have deviated from the format many many times. When we were experimenting with Rich benefits and found that we got the same results regardless. I know Google guidelines and I believe them to be very good. I do not believe the division will make a difference overall.
Sincerely,
Thomas

Rich snippets for multiple breadcrumbs
Hey there,
On-Page Optimization | | Supertramp
I have been playing around with rich snippets for multiple breadcrumbs for quite a bit now - without any success. It would be great if someone could point me to an example where this has been implemented correctly. I followed the Google recommendation but it doesn't seem to work for me.

How can I make google display rich snippets when searching for my domain?
My domain is www.phraseexpander.com If I search for phraseexpander in google, I'm in the first position (as it should be) but google is not giving extra space to my result as it happens, for example, if you search for "fogbugz". Is there any way I can hep google index my contents (I currently have a site index that is created by Yoast SEO). Thanks a lot. Andrea
