Email, phone, address on banner
-
Should I remove my email address, phone and address from banner and place only on contact us page? Does this matter for Google placement? thanks Trish

Are you talking about a banner ad or just a banner on your site?
If it is just a banner on your own site, I don't really see the harm and Google can't tell what is on the image. You should also contain the information in text on your contact page and possibly in the footer of your site.
If you are talking about an ad that appears on other sites, I wouldn't recommend this. You are using up valuable ad space and more than likely someone isn't going to call you or jot down your address before they click on the banner and check out your site.

Hi Wayne coll,
I totally agree with you, if we provide contact information on each and every page in a domain it is like user friendly, if visitors found all these information on a page where they landed, then they feel quite good.
And also, one small tip, we may have so many branches linked to our business(More than 10 Locations) rite at that time, in ContactUS page we can provide all branches information in this page and for inner pages we can provide MainBrach Name:Contact Number1, MainBrach Name:Contact Number2, MainBrach Name:Contact Number3 at the bottom of the page.
Actually this is the process we are following.
Thank you....

In my personal opinion it doesn’t matter if you have this information on every page on not but it has to be on the contact us page.
Talking from the user perspective if you think you are in the industry where people love to have contact information then place it on every page may be in the header or footer, Google won’t gonna have any problem within in normal cases!

David is right. Google just wants to give the ease to users. It's good tactics is you are providing your contact details without harm the content placement.

I agree with David. The last thing you want is for your visitors to have to search for how to get in touch. Best rule of thumb- hand that to them on a platter. Make it easy. I also agree that it should be text, not a graphic.

I always like to have contact info on every page it helps users and that is what google wants. Local business need this more then pure online stores but make sure its not on a image on the banner so google can read it

To change or not to change. DO we update our HTTP page to HTTPS? especially those with basic forms (phone, email, name)??

Hero Banners & Live Text Q?
Hey Guys N' Girls. What are the benefits of having live selectable text on your home page slider banners? I understand that as live text Google can read the text, so there are keyword and relevancy benefits. But the question is how much impact on ranking this will have? The reason I ask is our website solution can add live text but the fonts are limited to 9 basic fonts. We would like to use more jazzy fonts in the banner, but our only option then is to use a jpeg or png. Thanks for your responses. Owen

Schema business address - can this affect me in the national rankings
Looking at using Schema microdata on our new website, we currently rank quite decently in Google UK. If I was to add schema mark up for our business address could this effect us in Google UK rankings wise i.e. our rankings for national search (for want of a better word!) suffer but our local rankings increase?

For Service Sites, having a phone number in meta description ALWAYS a good idea?
If you have a site that offers a same day service, e.g. plumbing, electrical, computer support: do you think it would always be a good idea to stick the phone # in the meta description?
