Can you use Google tag manager to manage rich snippets/schema mark up?
-
Hi,Does anyone know if you can use the new Google tag manager to manage rich snippets? I've seen that there is an HTML section where you can edit HTML that isn't shown on the site - do you think this field could be used to add schema data?Thanks,Karen

Hi there
A couple of years back but this still isn't answered! I am sure you have heard by now but you can install Schema through GTM, here is a great resource:
Adding Schema Markup - The Non-Developer Guide (SERPWoo)
Hope this helps! Good luck!

We just tried doing exactly that in GTM with hidden style tags. Our customers tend to use weird CMS platforms so getting their devs to add something to the footer or header is tough.
Biz NameAlberta1234 Fake Street555 555 1234Unfortunately I just tested it and nothing is showing up in the structured testing tool: https://developers.google.com/structured-data/testing-tool/Would love if anyone could shine more light on this.
Trying to enter it as a custom HTML tag firing on all pages. -
Hey Karen,
As to getting back to you so quickly: I was in the neighborhood and happy to assist
I am assuming product schema, but LMK.
With some of our content, we actually are training copywriters to put the schema in. Now, I would not do this in ecommerce as it is a different dev cycle/approach. But, for review or person schema, etc. its not a bad thought.
Each of our copywriters have pay changes based on learning and achievement. (No, we are not making them devs and they are judged based on content quality as well.)
I believe that every kid should learn basic html, etc. and am even starting a program where we provide a dev to a school to teach coding to middle schoolers (We pay the dev and the school/kids pay nothing). If they can be taught with all they are going through, anyone can. We are approaching a place where most will need basic html, etc. and schema ain't that tough.
LMK how it goes. You can even PM me.

Hi,
Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. It was a bit of a long-shot, we're just desperate to manage clients' schema without having to go through developers!
Thanks,
Karen

Digirank,
I do not see how you could use it for that, but admittedly have kicked your ball over to our head of dev just to be sure. Curious, how would you want to use it for schema given it is set to be more for tracking?

Fire a tag when element is loaded on page (Google Tag Manager)
I'm using an Element Visibility trigger to track a value that appears on a page. However, I want to track this value even when the user doesn't scroll to the area of the page where the element is (i.e. when the page is loaded, and the value is displayed below the fold, but the user doesn't scroll down there). Is there a way of doing this

Conflicting data in Google Analytics
Hi Guys I've been looking at the data for a client in Google analytics and I was wondering if anyone knows why some of the data doesn't tally up. In my case its the following: Under Aquisition
Reporting & Analytics | | Relative
No of Sessions for a Keyword shown in Organic Search tab (compared to)
No of Clicks for a Query in the Search Engine Optimisation tab For example, for a brand term, Google are showing 17 Sessions in Organic Search.
For the same term Google are showing 90 Clicks in the Queries section of Search Engine Optimisation OK, we know that Google are a little cloak and dagger regarding keyword data but surely Sessions and Clicks for the same keyword should be identical unless I'm missing something.0 -
Tracking Google places (7 pack listing) traffic in google analytics
Is there a way to see Google Places traffic (traffic from users clicking through the 7 pack listings) segmented in Google analytics ? Normally is it just lumped together with the organic traffic ? Can you see the search phrases used to find your site, or do they also show up under 'not provided' when from Google Places. Im aware i can see some limited data in the Google Places analytics, but these seem to be 2 days behind when ever i view them.

Google Analytics data - Canonical problems?
Hi everyone, We're trying to determine why Google Analytics is showing multiple versions of the same page as having "landing page traffic". For instance, these 2 pages are both shown as landing pages in GA: www.oursite.com/product_page
Reporting & Analytics | | darkgreenguy
www.oursite.com/product_page/ This occurs many times in Google analytics. Also, there are instances such as these: www.oursite.com/index.php/custom_product_url www.oursite.com/custom_product_url I can't find anything in Google Webmaster tools that would indicate a problem. However, this GA data is making me think there are duplicate content issues on the site... Thanks in advance for any help...0 -

Alternative to Google Analytics
Hi from sunny Manchester! I'm looking for recommendations for alternatives to GA. I'm specifically looking for something which won't sample data and will give us accurate numbers. Our site is pretty big, it receives 6 million+ visits and 50 million+ pageviews/year. Any recommendations would be greatly received together with any good/bad experiences you've had with them. Thanks in advance, Brendan.
