Schema.org
-
Has anyone successfully added the schema.org code to an ecommerce site?
Was it of any benefit to seo?

Thanks Lucek great answer, i went ahead and did it, it was pretty painless and i used the GWT to verify it was being read. Its reading the review counts, high and low values but doesnt display them as star ratings - maybe thats only for PPC. But the rest all works which is great.
I was surprised that an ecomm category page wont return any snippets as it contains multiple product tags (according to GWT), but this now puts my worries to one side about too many key word repetitions on the category pages as ive told google exactly why that is.
Here's to a succesful launch!

I managed to add this to one of my sites. I can't tell for sure that it did anything good to my rankings (I did too many changes at the time) but I can guarantee You that someday it will. Here's why:
- You show search engines that You put effort into creating Your site,
- structured data is yummy,
- someone, somewhere, someday (most probably already) will scan web for structured data and will use it in some way, potentially linking back to You.
Notice: I used GWT to verify validity of code on product pages, however GWT told me that it didn't found any rich data on the page. As I later found out it didn't mean that my code was invalid, but that GWT decided that the page isn't interesting enough to scan for structured data.

Schema LocalBusiness for multiple store locations
Hello, I want to add LocalBusiness mark up to our store pages. I recently read this article https://moz.com/blog/structured-data-for-seo-2 One piece of advice I wanted to confirm is this section: It might seem counter-intuitive, but organization and LocalBusiness markup should only be used on the pages which are actually about your business (e.g. homepage, about page, and/or contact page). I am working on an e-commerce site that has multiple stores and a store page for each. Currently there is Organization Mark Up (with the head office contact information) on every single page. Am I right in saying that we should remove the Organization Mark Up from every page except the homepage, then add LocalBusiness mark up to each store page with the relevant contact information for each store? Many thanks in advance.

What schema markup to add to case study?
What would be the best schema markup to add to a case study? I am somewhere between choosing an 'article' or a 'review'. A review is not really right though, because it's not a customer leaving feedback, it's the company's take on their performance. Any opinions?

Schema description wordcount guidelines ?
Hi is there a wordcount guideline for the description field in Ravens schema creator ? according to their page on event schema an excerpt from the page will show up as a short description but then their tool has a field for adding a description! I was just adding some edited copy from the page into this but if it already pulls in an excerpt is there any need ? I take it its a good idea for better control of what's displayed in rich snippet, if so what's suggested wordcount limit ? cheers dan
