Rich snippets stars gone
-
i had some rich snippets stars for reviews showing on one of my clinets sites, but today they have gone, has anyone had this happen, if so what did you do to get them back?
-
bob just to let you know, i re-did the reviews using actual reviews on page, just 2 of them and i have the starts back.
-
did you try to get them back? any sucess?
-
That's me
And yes, I think a competitor ratted me out to Google while I was experimenting with the review stars -
Just noticed your domain anseocompany.com.au
I have seen it when checking my rankings, i also remeber you had stars before, are you talking from expirerence?
I used to trade under perthseocompany.com.au but i have merged my websites under thatsit.com.au

Yes i just had a look as i removed some html from that page, thought i may of taken some of the wrong cope out, but no.
But i did find that i was messing around and added a empty organization snippet see below and forgot to remove it, it was just above the review, maybe it upset things
http://schema.org/Organization">
but then the stars still apeared in rich snippet tool, so I doubt this had an affect, but i have removed it and i will see.
I am from parkerville up in the hills, i have been suprised to see so many Aussies on the forum.

Hmm, not sure in that case. Any recent updates to the code perhaps?
And yes, I'm from Perth too

http://data-vocabulary.org/Review">
NYT, BBC, NPR and CNNnot a count of reviews, i will give it a few days to see if they come back.
I am a perth seo, and the ones on my site are fine.(at the moment)
Are you also from Perth Bob

these were just rich snippets for orgqanic serps

We're they real reviews or manufactured ones? I've seen a lot of Perth SEO sites had em, and Google took them away because they were misleading.

Has the star rating dropped?
I know Google Adwords has a trigger at round 4 stars+, if the star rating drops below this the stars turn off.
So this might/might not be the problem.

Any insight would be great. Thanks

Rich Snippets on service pages and how to aggregate?
Question about rich snippets.. I want to showcase reviews of the SERVICE's offered but I am not sure if I should include them on the service page, a review page or both. For example, we offer snow plowing and lawn care services and each service has its own page. I have reviews for both services under the my "testimonials" page. So, a couple questions. 1 - Should I pace a single review marked up on each service page? 2 - Does the review need to be a google review or can I use reviews from other sites? If not, do I need to notate that somehow using the schema vocabulary? Example, I have a 5 star review from thumbtrackDOTcom, is it ok to mark up the review and include a nofollow link? (No follow because thumbtrack is actually a competitor.) 3 - When I looked into creating an aggregate rich snippet I got confused / concerned. Is it ok to list multiple services as a product? Example: <div< span="">itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Product"> <span< span="">itemprop="name">Lawn Care and Snow Removal</span<> <div< span="">itemprop="aggregateRating" itemscopeitemtype="http://schema.org/AggregateRating">

Rated <span< span=""> itemprop="ratingValue">4.5</span<>/5
based on <span< span=""> itemprop="reviewCount">4</span<> customer reviews</div></div<></div<> 4 - When I tested the code above, no stars showed up in the preview. Do I need to mark up products as well? Am I doing it completely wrong 🙂 Thanks for any advice!!0 -
Why has my bounce rate gone in to orbit since moving the same content to a new site?!
I moved our site to a wordpress theme over the christmas break. All content is pretty much the same word for word, and I think the new site looks much, much better than the old one. Why then, has our overall bounce rate gone from 7-8%, up to 74%? Bounce rates for some KW focused internal pages have gone from 2-3% to similar 70+% in some cases. Just to confuse things further, I have also changed the name and branding for the site to differentiate us from a competitor and stop the confusion we've experienced at times. But, I can't see how the new logo would cause and extra 65% of visitors to leave straight off! I really don't want to go back to the old name and don't think that's the answer anyhow, but I may have to test it out of sheer desperation. There's only a static holding page for the old site now as a reference point for people searching the old name (not many). So I've attached a screenshot of how it looked below. Also at http://imgur.com/aM5o9. The new site is at flatroofs.co.uk. I have just noticed that by placing the previous 'more information' links a secondary menu in the left widget area rather than on the page, they are less noticeable especially if you scroll down to the bottom of a page, where the only links are in the footer? Again though, if 75% of people are put off this easily something else must be at play! Any advice/suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, Danny. aM5o9.png?1

I have been considering adding a 5 star review capability to my website. Are there any good ones that I can add with either html or javascript? I do not have a wordpress site. Any experience with increased conversion rates with such a capability? Also, do any have the capability to show up in google search results?

Why does Google only show the review stars for some listings in the Places results
I have a client who shows up in the Places results for his targeted keyword phrase, but one of his competitors' listing shows 5 gold stars next to the reviews which causes him to stand out visually. I was under the impression that at one time the stars only showed for listings that had official Google reviews, but the other listings in the results also have "Google Reviews" but no stars.
