      Hi,

      Trying to markup products for a site that does not show prices. Is there any way to markup a product price when the business model is:

      1. customer calls or contacts shop.

      2. shop gives a price quote based on level of detail and finish on the product

      3. there is no base or top price.

      Thanks in advance!

          I know it's been a couple years since you guys thought about this thread but I'm currently having this exact issue and was wondering if you came up with a workable solution?

            We don't sell online and I'm having the exact same problem. I'd love to implement Schema but I don't see how without listing a price.

              Perhaps Search Console is looking from the point of view of a rich snippet and that your code is not valid for that. I guess that even though your schema is valid, it is not treated as such by Google.

              I did a little searching about and there are a few people asking similar questions around "Call for quote" or similar, but no one had an answer other than "Don't include a price".

              As Google won't include a product in rich snippets without a price, I'm not sure it is actually an issue that the Search Console is reporting an error, I would imagine Google is likely just ignoring the markup, but will still crawl and index the rest of the page. Either way, I'm not sure you have much choice.

              Interestingly, according to Schema.org, you can use text (not just numbers) for the price property so you could test putting "Call for price" in that property, although I strongly suspect Google would simply highlight that as an error.

                Hi Alex,

                That is "exactly" what I did.

                Structured data tool says it's valid while Search Console says it's an error :-/.

                I should add the error search console gives is:  Either "offers", "review", or "aggregateRating" should be specified

                  "Price" is not a property of "Product", but rather a property of "Offer" which in turn is an optional property of "Product".  I.e. a Product can optionally have an offer, which must have a price.

                  Therefore you could list a product without an offer which would be valid, but I'm not sure how Google would then treat it, it's not something I've tried.

                    Schema.org product offer with a price range, or multiple offers with single prices?

                    I'm implementing Schema.org, (JSON-LD), on an eCommerce site. Each product has a few different variations, and these variations can change the price, (think T-shirts, but blue & white cost $5, red is $5.50, and yellow is $6). In my Schema.org markup, (using JSON-LD), in each Product's Offer, I could either have a single Offer with a price range, (minPricd: $5, maxPrice $6), or I could add a separate Offer for each variation, each with its own, correct, price set. Is one of these better than the other? Why? I've been looking at the WooCommerce code and they seem to do the single offer with a price range, but that could be because it's more flexible for a system that's used by millions of people.

                    Canonical tag use for ecommerce product page detail

                    Hi, I have a category page I want to rank. This page has 24 different products quite similar but not exactly the same.
                    I want to use canonical tag in any product to the parent category. 
                    Is this a right use of the canonical? 
                    Category page I'm talking about is : Finger bits If I understand how to use canonical tags I can improve all my category pages. thanks marco

                    Assigning WooCommerce products to more than one category - Correct methodology?

                    I manage a store selling prescription glasses, many of which are unisex or apply to more than one category. I have already assigned the canonical URL for each category, but my question is, if a product appears in more than one category, do I need to set the canonical URL in each product to reflect the category I want it to index under? Therefore, any additional categories that product appears in simply refers the link value back to the canonical URL. I note that in Yoast, under each product, there's note in the canonical setting to leave it empty to default to permalink, so this has confused me a little. I'm just concerned that by applying a product to multiple categories, it may be causing duplicate content, as I have a lot of duplicate issues which I'll raise in another question. Thanks!

                    Should I Focus on Video Schema or a Video Sitemap First

                    Hey all, I'm working on a website that is soon going to launch a video hub that contains over 500 videos. I'm interested in ensuring that the videos show up on the SERPs page in the highest position possible. I know Google recommends that you have on-page schema for your videos as well as an XML sitemap so they can be indexed for SERP. When I look at schema and the XML video sitemap they seem to communicate very similar kinds of information (Title, Description, Thumbnail, Duration). I'm not sure which one to start with; is it more important to have video schema or a video sitemap? Additionally, if anyone knows of any good video sitemap generators (free is best, but cheap is okay too) then please let me know. Cursory google searching has just churned up a number of tools that look sketchy.

                    Product Variations (rel=canonical or 301) & Duplicate Product Descriptions

                    Hi All, Hoping for a bit of advice here please, I’ve been tasked with building an e-commerce store and all is going well so far. We decided to use Wordpress with Woocommerce as our shop plugin. I’ve been testing the CSV import option for uploading all our products and I’m a little concerned on two fronts: - Product Variations Duplicate content within the product descriptions **Product Variations: - ** We are selling furniture that has multiple variations (see list below) and as a result it creates c.50 product variations all with their own URL’s. Facing = Left, Right Leg style = Round, Straight, Queen Ann Leg colour = Black, White, Brown, Wood Matching cushion = Yes, No So my question is should I 301 re-direct the variation URL’s to the main product URL as from a user perspective they aren't used (we don't have images for each variation that would trigger the URL change, simply drop down options for the user to select the variation options) or should I add the rel canonical tag to each variation pointing back to the main product URL. **Duplicate Content: - ** We will be selling similar products e.g. A chair which comes in different fabrics and finishes, but is basically the same product.  Most, if not all of the ‘long’ product descriptions are identical with only the ‘short’ product descriptions being unique. The ‘long’ product descriptions contain all the manufacturing information, leg option/colour information, graphics, dimensions, weight etc etc. I’m concerned that by having 300+ products all with identical ‘long’ descriptions its going to be seen negatively by google and effect the sites SEO. My question is will this be viewed as duplicate content?  If so, are there any best practices I should be following for handling this, other than writing completely unique descriptions for each product, which would be extremely difficult given its basically the same products re-hashed. Many thanks in advance for any advice.

                    Starting a new product, should we use new domain or subdomain

                    I'm working with a company that has a high page rank on it's main domain and is looking to launch a new business / product offering.  They are evaluating either creating a subdomain or launching a brand new domain.  In either case, their current site will link contextually to the new site.  Is there one method that would be better for SEO than the other? The new business / product is related to the main offering, but may appeal to different / new customers.  The new business / product does need it's own homepage and will have a different conversion funnel than the existing business.
