Has anyone had issues with Bazaarvoice and schema.org?
-
About a year ago we started using Bazaarvoice to get reviews for our products, and it has been great as far as accumulating content, but Google is not taking the schema.org data and displaying it on the SERP. Someone has told me it is because we are offering multiple products, or that our schema.org tags are incorrect but when I compare our code to other travel sites it seems like everyone is doing something different. This is especially annoying since the Google schema markup check says everything is fine.
Does anyone have any advice or similar experiences? Thanks.

Hi Justin,
Some of our team picked up on this question and asked me to send you a quick response.
In Schema.org markup, you only should declare one product per page, and you have two. Although the Rich Snippets testing tool will say the markup is “All good”, Rich Snippets will not show in the SERP. Then, it looks like your individual reviews aren’t nested correctly inside of the schema.org/Product tag – that could be causing an issue as well.
We’ll follow up with you through our Support team! Definitely want to get this working with you.

Hey,
This is actually Justin Harney (in house SEO) posting. I'll have to change the account name to represent that. Richard is the CEO here.
Here is an example of two sites (the first one is ours) where reviews are not appearing in SERPs vs.one of our competitors where they are:

Hi Richard,
Are you able to share the site we're talking about here? That would make it easier for us to help you with feedback on the specific example.

Homepage name in Breadcrumb for schema.org
Hi all, We have recently implemented the schema.org structure for our breadcrumbs. In our breadcrumb we include a link to the homepage. Since implementation I'm receiving the following error in Google Search Console: Either "name" or "item.name" should be specified The error is being triggered because we don't have itemprop="name" defined for the homepage on each page. Our breadcrumbs look good in search but I'm wondering if anybody else has experienced this error and what can we do to fix it. Should itemprop="name" be our Brand name? Or should we define this as our root domain? Thanks in advance

Suite Numbers and Schema
A potentially stupid question. Is the suite number included within the tag, or should it sit outside of it? The reason I ask is because (a) I've seen it where the suite number sits outside that tag and (b) Google My Business best practices, I've been told (by Google support), is to include the suite in the second address line. I'm wondering if that translates in some way to the local schema on your site. On the other hand, it makes sense to include your suite number within the streetAddress span tag, but sometimes what makes sense doesn't really make sense when you know more, so I'm just covering my bases. Thank you!

Index bloating issue
Hello, In the last month, I noticed a huge spike in the number of pages indexed on my site, which I think is impacting my SEO quality score. While I've only have about 90 pages on my site map, the number of pages indexed jumped to 446, with about 536 pages being blocked by robots. At first we thought this might be due to duplicate product pages showing up in different categories on my site, but we added something to our robot.txt file to not index those pages. But the number has not gone down. I've tried to consult with our hosting vendor, but no one seems to be concerned or have any idea why there was such a big jump in the last month. Any insights or pointers would be so greatly appreciated, so that I can fix/improve my SEO as quickly as possible! Thanks!

Is Schema markup important for SEO?
I have recently come across the Schema markup and have researched what it's all about. Basically in short it helps search engines identify all the elements of the page. Our competitors have this implementated, so is this important for SEO? We have an e commerce store.

Redundant Hostnames Issue in GA
I noticed another post on this, but I have another question. I am getting this message from Analytics: Property http://www.example.com is receiving data from redundant hostnames. Consider setting up a 301 redirect on your website, or make a search and replace filter that strips "www." from hostnames. Examples of redundant hostnames: example.com, www.example.com. We don't have a 301 in place that manages this and I am quite concerned about handling that the right way. We do have a canonical on our homepage that says: rel="canonical" href="http://www.example.com/" /> I asked on another site how to safely set up our 301 and I got this response: RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.example.com$ [NC]

RewriteRule ^ http://www.example.com%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L,NE] Is this the best way of handling it? Are there situations where this would not be the best way? We do have a few subdomains like beta.example.com in use and have a rather large site, so I just want to make sure I get it right. Thanks for your help! Craig0 -

Canonical URL Issue
Hi Everyone, I'm fairly new here and I've been browsing around for a good answer for an issue that is driving me nuts here. I tried to put the canonical url for my website and on the first 5 or 6 pages I added the following script SEOMoz reported that there was a problem with it. I spoke to another friend and he said that it looks like it's right and there is nothing wrong but still I get the same error. For the URL http://www.cacaniqueis.com.br/video-caca-niqueis.html I used the following: <link rel="<a class="attribute-value">canonical</a>" href="http://www.cacaniqueis.com.br/video-caca-niqueis.html" /> Is there anything wrong with it? Many thanks in advance for the attention to my question.. 🙂 Alex
