Recipe Wordpress Plugin - Structured Data?
-
We have been using this plugin for years: https://wordpress.org/plugins/ziplist-recipe-plugin/ and it appears that it's causing us serious problems in Google. So we're looking for either a new plugin or possible directions on if we should custom build an option into our site.
Ultimately we're looking for the best setup for the Recipes on our site to obtain a Featured Snippet. Thank you!

Excellent resource, thank you!

Yes. I usually go for having everything under control. Moreover, implementing schema.org is really not a hard thing to do. I tried a quick search and found this article: https://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/schema-wordpress-seo/. It might help. They talk about a plugin which does schema.org integration in Wordpress but also show you how to implement it yourself. I hope it helps.

Yes, we've received a manual penalty (Spammy structured markup) within GSC and our Organic traffic has dropped ~25%. We're fairly certain the plugin is the problem, especially since it hasn't been updated for a few years. But we're never 100% positive. This is our best bet.
Thanks for the heads up on Data Highlighter. Can you explain what the difference between this and Schema.org?
-
Ok, so you'd recommend just coding directly into the theme, rather than trying to find another plugin.

Hello,
I would suggest the following:
1. Use Yoast SEO plugin (https://yoast.com/wordpress/plugins/seo/) for general search engine optimization.
2. Code the Recipe structured data markup following the information in this link: http://schema.org/Recipe. You can code this in the specific theme file for your recipes from the Theme Editor.
Best of luck!

Folders in url structure?
Hello, Revamping an out-of-date website and am wondering if I need to include the folders (categories) in the url structure? The proposed structure has 8 main folders. I've been reading that Google is ok if the folder is not included in the url, but is it really? The hesitation I have is that the urls are getting long and the main folder only has only a sub folder beneath it. So, /folder-name/facility-name/treatment-overview. This looks too long, doesn't it? Thanks!

EzineArticles WordPress Plugin
Any thoughts on the EzineArticles plugin for WordPress? I read that it provides "the ability to simultaneously publish new posts to the web and submit them as articles to EzineArticles.com" Could this lead to duplicate content penalties?

Is there any issue with using the same structured data property multiple times on the same page?
Im working on implementing structured data properties into my product detail pages. (http://schema.org/Book) My site sells books and many books have both a 13 digit ISBN # and a 10 Digit ISBN. Should I apply the itemprop "isbn" to both of them or just the one with higher search volume? Some books also have multiple authors, how should I handle that?

Subdomains at Yola, Blogger, Wordpress
If the purpose of constructing a site or blog is for SEO ie a linking microsite, is it better to keep as a subdomain or to register on its own domain. The question is how much of the Domain Authority of that site will flow through the subdomain to linked site. I note that these subdomains have PA of 1, does this answer my own question?? Thanks eg widgets.yolasite.com or widgets.wordpress.com
