How to put structured data on your site?
-
HI All,
I Would like to know your views on structured data on your site. What are the qualities and point that should keep in mind when we talking about the "structured data on your site".
how we can apply structured data.
How we use data highlighter for the website which don't have any events.
your thoughts please.
thanks -
If you have a blog, you can use structured data, if you are selling movies you can use structured data. It has several uses and you should read each structured data type (schema.org, microformats, microdata, RDFs) to see which one you can use.
Personally I use microdata on my blog to give the author data a structure using "Person", the post date, etc.
I would go first with Schema.org, as you are just starting: http://www.schema.org/

Hi Federico,
These links are helpful and already had read it. But thanks for these useful links.
so we can say that the structured data and the data highlighter shouldn't use for the websites which have any product selling, discount offers, few special things on the website, a information that may be very useful for others.
Is there any tools that will help to make a website highlight on the search engines. I already follow all points that should be on the website.
Thanks Again....

Google has great resourced to help you started with structured data.
Your first read should be this: http://support.google.com/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2650907
Once you do the implementation, you can test it using their testing tool: http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/richsnippets
Data Highlighter is a structure created for events. If you don't have any events, then you shouldn't use data highlighter. More info on Data Highlighter here: http://support.google.com/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2692911&topic=2692946&ctx=topic
Hope that helps!

Why would on-site search queries show up as referral traffic?
The site analytics have been set up for over a year and suddenly last month there was a huge spike in referral traffic (1100+ sessions). Upon further investigation, the majority of it was coming directly from internally, either as mysite.com or search.mysite.com and the landing pages from the referrals are all /search.html?query=* This was never an issue before so I'm trying to understand what could have changed. I'm following up with the client to find out if their dev team may have changed anything related to their search engine but I'm wondering if there may be another explanation. A few notes: previously mysite.com / search.mysite.com were not in the Referral Exclusion list. I've added them now but this was never an issue before. Thanks in advance!

One big site for a loose theme or multiple sites for each specific theme?
Hi, Our company produces content related to one loose overall theme. Within that we write content and sell products on three specific sub-themes. Some of our customers cross over and have an interest in two or all three themes and others are only interested in one. At present we have one site covering reviews of products relating to all three sub-themes... ....and three other sites offering how-to guides and tutorials dedicated to each sub-theme. We do not have a lot of time to commit to SEO and so we are considering merging the content we have on all three subjects into the one site covering them all. Each of these sub-themes could have websites in their own right and my worry is that it will be harder to rank for these subject specific terms if the content is not on a site dedicated to that subject. But of course if they were all together then any links we build will be consolidated into one big site. Does anyone have any experience of this or have any advice on what the best thing to do would be? Thanks for your help!

Local site rankings have dropped off first page but Universal went up.
My site was performing first page locally on 6 of 20 keywords, and universally on 3 of 20 keywords. We started a link building campaign and optimization about 3 weeks ago. When I looked at the rankings today I was happy to see that 16 of 20 keywords were in the top 20 rankings universally, but not happy to see that only 1 of the 25 words were ranking locally now. I lost my local ranking on 5 very important keywords. I realize that you can not rank first page for both local and organic but its as if I traded my first page local ranking for a universal ranking that appears lower on the page. Maybe someone could point me in the right direction.

Any thoughts on why Nextag and MonsterMarketPlace are linking to our site?
I'm looking in WMT at the crawl errors and I noticed that our website has gotten a lot of Not Found crawl errors that seem strange. A lot of these not found pages are Display URLs that I use in PPC advertising, but not actual redirects (i.e. explorica.com/EducationalTrips). When I looked at how these links were being found, the inbound links were coming from Nextag.com and monstermarketplace.com, two sites that our company has never had a relationship with. We're an educational travel company, so we'd have no reason to. When I followed the links, it looks like it's coming from their "Sponsored Links," but these aren't Google or Bing Ads. We don't even advertise on the content network. Example link: http://www.monstermarketplace.com/starters-and-alternators/alternator-motorola-style-12v-51a-10376 (the ads do rotate so my site might not appear when you check it out). Anyone ever had experience with this type of issue?
