How to make video snapshot appear near your search result
-
What's the proper way to have google display a video near the search result for my webpage (I'm using LeadPlayer to play videos).
I think that the information regarding the video is there (I also submitted a video sitemap) but when I do a search the author picture is displayed instead of the video.
Have I set anything wrong? How can I display the video if my post contains a video?
You can try searching "phraseexpander create customizable templates"
There's my youtube video and then the result from my webpage http://www.phraseexpander.com
I would like to display the video as a result.
Thanks a lot.

I'm currently using XML Sitemap for Videos that generates the video sitemap.
Is that enough? I also saw this plug in http://yoast.com/wordpress/video-seo/ and it looks like you can display video snippets even if the video are hosted on youtube.
What's your experience?
Thanks.

Lead player just integrates with the YouTube API - so it's no different to just embedding the YouTube version on your page.
If you want the video rich snippet, a much more surefire way is going to be self hosting your video - or using a third party provider like Wistia.
Also, you should put your video sitemap in your robots.txt file as well as submitting through GWMT.

How did you build the video sitemap? Can you post a link to the video sitemap?
Best,
Christopher

Sold Products appear as duplicate pages 'Page Not Found' ???
Hi there, I'm down to just 6 duplicate page warnings but I'm not sure how to deal with this one: Information Page Not Found! http://www.vintageheirloom.com/index.php?route=information/information&information_id=6 My Ecommerce shopping site products are unique, 1 of a kind. So once one product has sold and been delivered we take the product off our website, hence the Information Page Not Found! As I understand when search engines re-index these warnings will drop off but new sold products would replace them. So redirecting seems like hard work and never ending. Is it ok to ignore these warnings? Thanks Mozzers..

Numbers in URL's - Search friendly or not?
Hi Mozzers, I have a client who has just launched a new website and we are having difficulties in making the URL's search friendly. I wont get into the technical aspects, but I'll explain the potential solutions the developers have given me. current: www.site.com/en/product/browse-by-product/37/22 Where 'en' stands for the English version of the website, 37 is the product category for example 'hard drives', and 22 is the product name or example 'seagate' Option to fix; www.site.com/en/p/product/hard-drives-37/seagate-22 This optional fix reduces the word product down to p, reduces 'browse by product' to 'product' and inserts the category and product names. Note the category identifier '37' has to be included in the URL, and the product identifier '22' also has to be in the URL. Obviously this is not great, but it is required at the moment. Best case scenario would be to have the URL like this... www.site.com/en/hard-drives/seagate So my question is, how far off the best case scenario is the option to fix? Scale of 1 to 10 would be good?
