Mobile Google SRP not showing Mobile breadcrumb
-
Hi,
I have implemented schema code for Breadcrumb on mobile site which is same as on Desktop. Now Desktop breadcrumb structure is getting visible on Google SRP, but when i check Mobile breadcrumb structure in Android Phone Google SRP, it is not visible. I have verified both code in schema structure tool.Is there any different schema code for mobile breadcrumb.
Need any additional information regarding this, please send me your queries.

Thanks Everett for Clarification.

I did not mean to imply that AMP would fix your problem, as asked above. But, if you are interested in mobile optimization (including the snippets displayed in search results), you may want to check that out.
To answer your question, I don't think you are doing anything "wrong". Google likely handles desktop and mobile separately so you may have breadcrumbs on one and not the other. Having the code on the page does not guarantee that Google will display something in the search results.

But AMP is a way to build web pages for static content that render fast.

Hello Anirban,
Thanks for clearing that up. Again, Google does not always show markup just because you have it on the site.
If you are truly concerned with mobile optimization in the SERPs, check into Accelerated Mobile Pages (AMP)- https://www.ampproject.org/ .
Best of luck!

Hi Everett,
Drop down navigation is only implemented on Desktop site and Breadcrumbs structure of desktop site of Ask & Answer getting visible in Google, but Mobile site breadcrumb is not getting visible in Google SRP.. -
Hello Anirban,
Just because you implement the markup does not mean Google will show it in the SERPs. This is true for breadcrumbs, product markup, events and more.
Also, it could have something to do with the drop-down navigation embedded in your breadcrumbs. You may try removing that to see if you get the breadcrumb on mobile.

Hi Everett,
We have implemented Breadcrumb on question detail pages. Please check this page http://goo.gl/WSGyDl and search this code itemscope itemtype="http://data-vocabulary.org/Breadcrumb. You can find all question detail pages here http://goo.gl/Zmz0v3 . -
Hello Anirban,
I did not see any breadcrumbs or breadcrumb markup on that page. The source code has a section for it, but nothing is inside it:

Hi Bridget,
Thanks for looking into this matter. I am checking it almost daily basis, but it is showing URL in Google SERP instead of breadcrumb. I have implemented code on question detail pages on section http://goo.gl/Zmz0v3 (This is the URL of AnA section, check it on Mobile browser). -
Hi Anirban, I don't believe that there is separate schema for mobile breadcrumbs, and since you tested it with the testing tool it seems that something else may be going on here. Have you checked it again recently, and is it still not visible?
Would you be willing to tell me what the site is, so I can have a look myself?

Whats up with the last google update.
I have numerous clients who were at the top of page in the top 3 spots. They all dropped to page 3 or 4 or 2 and now they are number 1 in maps or in the top 3. Content is great on all these sites. backlinks are high quality and we do not build high quantity, we always focus on quality. the sites have authorship information. trust . we have excellent content written by professionals in the industry for each of the websites. The sites load super fast. they are very mobile friendly. we have CDN installed. content is organized per topic. all of our citations are setup properly and no duplicates, or missing citations. code is good on the websites. we do not have anchor text links pointing to the site from gust posts or whatever. we have plenty of content. our DA/PA is great. Audits of the website are great. I've been doing this a long time and ive never been so dumb founded as to what google has done this time. Or better yet what exactly is wrong with our clients websites today that was working perfectly for the last 5 years. I really am getting frustrated. im comparing my sites to competitors and everything's better. Please someone guide me here and tell me what im missing or tell me what you have done to recover from this nonsense.

Mobile First Timeline - When Will Google Move The Remainder of Websites?
A common question from anxious webmasters who have separate/smaller mobile websites is: _"Will Google move my site over to mobile-first, even though I'm not "ready" yet?" _It's not an easy question to answer. Here's what we know so far: Google is currently already migrating websites over that have a strong correlation between mobile and desktop content Google is taking the migration process very slowly, and for now, is not migrating sites over that are not "ready". Google has not announced any firm timeline for when they plan to migrate the remainder of all websites. In answering this question, I typically mention all of the above to help allay any fears. I then state that it could maybe be anywhere from one year to several years before the process is over - but with a huge disclaimer that this is pure speculation, and that only Google knows for sure. Lastly, I reiterate that Google in the meantime is strongly encouraging webmasters w mobile sites to ensure that they match the desktop version (URLs, schema, video, metadata, etc). So the choice is to either to upgrade to responsive/adaptive, or upgrade the mobile site. This is where the future is going. STILL - any additional feedback / thoughts / ideas / tips on this are welcome, because I continue to struggle with answering this question for clients. Thanks!

Should we show(to google) different city pages on our website which look like home page as one page or different? If yes then how?
On our website, we show events from different cities. We have made different URL's for each city like www.townscript.com/mumbai, www.townscript.com/delhi. But the page of all the cities looks similar, only the events change on those different city pages. Even our home URL www.townscript.com, shows the visitor the city which he visited last time on our website(initially we show everyone Mumbai, visitor needs to choose his city then) For every page visit, we save the last visited page of a particular IP address and next time when he visits our website www.townscript.com, we show him that city only which he visited last time. Now, we feel as the content of home page, and city pages is similar. Should we show these pages as one page i.e. Townscript.com to Google? Can we do that by rel="canonical" ? Please help me! As I think all of these pages are competing with each other.

Question about Google Search Results
I have a question regarding google search results. I have a website www.911signalusa.com when you type this into google search box the URL comes up repeatedly. I have several competitors here is one of them www.emergencycity.com when you type in their name it only come up as the first result. How did our SEO guys make this happen? I have another site tha when we type in the URL it only comes up as the first result. However when you do site:www.------.com All of these site are indexed in Google. It is not causing any problem we knoe of but it appears to me that our 1 site has it better? Or is it that maybe there are very minimal links to the site? Thank you for your time and consideration in answering my quesiton.

Embedded mobile page?
I have a client who wants a mobile version of their homepage. Normally, I use responsive design to accomplish this for the SEO benefit, but in this case the client wants very different information on the mobile home page than their regular home page. I don't want to go to a dedicated mobile version of the page because they get a fair amount of mobile traffic and so it would probably have a significant negative impact on their SEO to do so. So I was thinking I would add a hidden div to the home page which includes everything they want on the mobile home page and then use CSS to hide the regular content and show the hidden content if someone reaches the page from a smart phone. What do you think about this idea? Would I run afoul of Google's anti-cloaking "rules"? Has anyone done something like this before? Thanks!
