I have a site with jokes. What schema markup could I use?
-
My site is about jokes. I wonder what schema markup could I use to be more visible in the search results.

Thank you very much. And what do you think about the other questions?

There a good article on best practices for pagination here, on Moz: https://moz.com/blog/pagination-best-practices-for-seo-user-experience
I personally think, that 10 jokes per page is not a very good practice (obviously depends on how long the jokes are).
1. 100 Jokes is too much to swallow in one sitting.
2. People don't like pagination when it comes to entertaining content, it always seems like you just want to grab more clicks out of nothing.I would break those 100 jokes into 5 separate posts, via keyword research, which will help you find neutral niches for your jokes, regardless of your content. Something like "Best jokes for teenagers" (~600 monthly searches) / best new jokes (~ 400 searches, and who cares if they're not really new).
It's better to have 5 different posts like that one, it's easier to rank for these keywords as they're less competitive than just "best jokes", and you'll have a solid semantic structure, crawlers will see that your website is all bout lists of jokes, which is what you really want to achieve here.

Thank you very much indeed. I am new to Schema.org.
Is this how I should do the list:
Title of list
Joke 1
Jokes 2
....I have a Top 100 on 10 sites (pagination). Shall I use always the same title? Or can I used on each site a slightly different title (e.g. Jokes Top 100 | Part 3)
Shall I put something else on the site (for example in the head of the site.)

I would create lists. So list item markup.
Something like "25 Best Jokes About Horses", "17 Funniest Puns","Best knock-knock jokes"
Btw, Buzzfeed ranks on #0 for the last one: http://i.imgur.com/bws4qDe.png And they used a simple list item for markup.

Word Count - Content site vs ecommerce site
Hi there, what are your thoughts on word count for a content site vs. an ecommerce site. A lot of content sites have no problem pushing out 500+ words per page, which for me is a decent amount to help you get traction. However on ecommerce sites, a lot of the time the product description only needs to be sub-100 words and the total word count on the page comes in at under 300 words, a lot of that could be considered duplicate. So what are your views? Do ecommerce sites still need to have a high word count on the product description page to rank better?

Company name in Site Meta description?
Ok. So I know that you should have your company name in the site title, but is it all that important in the site description? The reason I ask is because I am competing with another company for the #1 position (I was number 1, now #2) that has an 8 character name and mine is 22 taking away from a great deal of real estate in my 150-160 character site description in which I could provide additional information describing my company. Should I remove my name in the site description enabling me to use more descriptive keywords and actionable text such as (Find, research, contact, professional, info) etc. Thanks,

Any benefit to using HeadSpace AND All in One?
I noticed that somewhere along the line (outside developer or SEO) I ended up with HeadSpace AND All in One on one of my WP sites. There are functions that I appreciate with both and I wonder if there is any danger to completing both forms for a post or page? Is there really any benefit or just a waste of time? I keep finding articles that compare the 2, but nothing that talks about using them together. If I get rid of All in One, …. WOW. Mid question, i realized I'm a dum-dum. All in One has the same no follow options I thought I would miss from HeadSpace. So new question…if I uninstall headspace, will I lose the data/settings that it was used to set up? Jenn

Schema.org for real estate portal
I am looking for advise on how to best start adopting schema.org for a real estate portal. Would like to get feedback and suggestions on my initial thoughts. Here are the obvious ones: 1. http://www.schema.org/RealEstateAgent(Thing > Organization > LocalBusiness > RealEstateAgent) Plan to use this to wrap realtors' information.We ll start with their profile page but possibly also on other pages with their information (e.g. listing page) 2. http://www.schema.org/SearchResultsPage(Thing > CreativeWork > WebPage > SearchResultsPage) This will mark search results pages where e.g. multiple listings of certain type in certain area are presented. 3. http://schema.org/WebPage(Thing > CreativeWork > WebPage) Pretty generic so we are thinking of using it on every page. e.g. significantLinks and breadcrumb objects seem like they could help in marking important links that will help search engines understand the site's information architecture better. I am not sure how to treat property listings Offer seems a good fit (http://www.schema.org/Offer) but not perfect. maybe it should be combined with place (http://www.schema.org/Place) http://www.schema.org/GeoCoordinates could also be used to mark each listing's location on the map. any thoughts or experiences you would like to share?
