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?

301 Redirect in breadcrumb. How bad is it?
Hi all, How bad is it to have a link in the breadcrumb that 301 redirects? We had to create some hidden category pages in our ecommerce platform bigcommerce to create a display on our category pages in a certain format. Though whilst the category page was set to not visable in bigcommerce admin the URL still showed in the live site bread crumb. SO, we set a 301 redirect on it so it didnt produce a 404. However we have lost a lot of SEO ground the past few months. could this be why? is it bad to have a 301 redirect in the breadrcrumb.

How To Implement Breadcrumbs
Hi, I'm looking to implement breadcrumbs for e-commerce store so they will appear in the SERP results like the attached image. In terms of implementing to a site, would you simply add HTML to each page like this Google example? Which looks like this: Books › Science Fiction Award Winners Then is there anything you need to do, to get this showing in the SERPs results e.g. doing something in search console. Or do you just wait into google has crawled and hopefully starts showing in the SERPs results? Cheers. wn3ybMMOQFW98fNQkxtJkA.png [SERP results with bread crumbs](SERP results with bread crumbs)

Fetch as Google
I have odd scenario I don't know if anyone can help? I've done some serious speed optimisation on a website, amongst other things CDN and caching. However when I do a Search Console Fetch As Google It is still showing 1.7 seconds download time even though the cached content seems to be delivered in less than 200 ms. The site is using SSL which obviously creams off a bit of speed, but I still don't understand the huge discrepancy. Could it be that Google somehow is forcing the server to deliver fresh content despite settings to deliver cache? Thanks in advance

Does hiding responsive design elements on smaller media types impact Google's mobile crawler?
I have a responsive site and we hide elements on smaller media types. For example, we have an extensive sitemap in the footer on desktop, but when you shrink the viewport to mobile we don't show the footer. Does this practice make Google's mobile bot crawler much less efficient and therefore impact our mobile search rankings?

Are links that are disavowed with Google Webmaster Tools removed from the Google Webmaster Profile for the domain?
Hi, Two part question - First, are links that you disavow using google webmaster tools ever removed from the webmaster tools account profile ? Second, when you upload a file to disavow links they ask if you'd like to replace the previously uploaded file. Does that mean if you don't replace the file with a new file that contains the previously uploaded urls those urls are no longer considered disavowed? So, should we download the previous disavow file first then append the new disavow urls to the file before uploading or should we just upload a new file that contains only the new disavow urls? Thanks

How long does google take to show the results in SERP once the pages are indexed ?
Hi...I am a newbie & trying to optimize the website www.peprismine.com. I have 3 questions - A little background about this : Initially, close to 150 pages were indexed by google. However, we decided to remove close to 100 URLs (as they were quite similar). After the changes, we submitted the NEW sitemap (with close to 50 pages) & google has indexed those URLs in sitemap. 1. My pages were indexed by google few days back. How long does google take to display the URL in SERP once the pages get indexed ? 2. Does google give more preference to websites with more number of pages than those with lesser number of pages to display results in SERP (I have just 50 pages). Does the NUMBER of pages really matter ? 3. Does removal / change of URLs have any negative effect on ranking ? (Many of these URLs were not shown on the 1st page) An answer from SEO experts will be highly appreciated. Thnx !

Mobile subdomain recommendations - Mobile SEO
My company is moving forward with creating a subdomain for mobile visitors (m.examplesite.com). I know there is much discussion on subdomain vs one url with different style sheets. That ship has sailed and the subdomain is the way we are proceeding. Google appears to recommend leaving both sites open to the normal Googlebot and redirecting the mobile bot to the mobile site (as we will be redirecting mobile visitors to the mobile subdomain). Has anyone had experience with this. Any duplicate content issues? Does anyone feel strongly that the normal Googlebot should be blocked from the mobile site (this seems to go against Google's recommendations)? It seems like another option is to use the canonical tag and let the search engines know the traditional site is the canonical page/version. Any recommendations? Any other issues that should be considered?
