      I am working on a mid size restaurant groups site.  The new site (in development) has a drop down of each of the locations.  When you hover over a location in the drop down it shows the businesses info (NAP).  Each of the location in the Nav list are using schema.org markup.

      I think this would be confusing for search robots.  Every page has 15 address schemas and individual restaurants pages NAP is at the below all the locations' schema/NAP in the DOM.

      Have any of you dealt with multiple schemas per page or similar structure?

        I help run a directory site and we have City pages with multiple listings.  We don't mark up that page but we have a landing page for each location.  The landing page for a location is what we markup that way.

        If you look on sites like Yelp they do the same thing.

        http://www.yelp.com/dallas

        On the Dallas page there is no schema markup but

        http://www.yelp.com/biz/eddie-vs-prime-seafood-dallas

        If you visit a local restaurant then the schema markup shows up.

        I was looking through the schema.org documentation

        http://schema.org/docs/gs.html

        Using the url property. Some web pages are about a specific item. For example, you may have a web page about a single person, which you could mark up using the Person item type. Other pages have a collection of items described on them. For example, your company site could have a page listing employees, with a link to a profile page for each person. For pages like this with a collection of items, you should mark up each item separately (in this case as a series of Persons) and add the url property to the link to the corresponding page for each item, like this:

         _[itemprop="url">Alice Jones](alice.html)
        
          [itemprop="url">Bob Smith](bob.html)_ 
        

        So in the example on Schema, you can tag the location with the type and then use the URL parameter to point to the actual page that has the information.

        I then looked at CitySearch I did see an example of this

        http://dallas.citysearch.com/find/section/dallas/restaurants.html

        and

        http://dallas.citysearch.com/profile/34327220/lewisville_tx/mama_s_daughters_diner.html

        If you look at the code on the Dallas Restaurant pages they use Item List markup

        itemscopeitemtype="http://schema.org/ItemList">

        That is a list of Breakfast Restaurants in Dallas and then for each place on that page they will mark up

        itemtype="http://schema.org/LocalBusiness" itemprop="itemListElement">

        and

        itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/AggregateRating" itemprop="aggregateRating">

        and then they reference the URL to the location page (as suggested above in the schema.org documentation)

        itemprop="url" class="slyLink fn url org" name="popular.breadwinnerscafebakery.1.businessName" id="graphicBrowse.1.1.name">

        [Check with your developer, but it looks like if you define the list of locations first, the spiders can see that all of the locations are a part of that list (vs the page being dedicated to a single location) then when you have the link to the landing page for the location you can do the full markup.

        Good luck!](http://dallas.citysearch.com/profile/41040743/dallas_tx/breadwinners_cafe_bakery.html)

          Should i be using shortcodes for my my page content.

          Hello, I have a question. Sorry if this is been answered before. Recently I decided to do a little face lift to my main website pages. I wanted to make my testimonials more pretty. Found this great plugin for testimonials which creates shortcodes. I love how it looks like, but just realised that when I use images in shortcodes, these are not picked up by search engines 😞 only text is. Image search ability is pretty important for me and I'm not sure if I should stick with my plain design and upload images manually with all alt tags and title tags or there is a way to adjust shortcode so it shows images to search engines. You can see example here. https://a-fotografy.co.uk/maternity-photographer-edinburgh/ Let me know your thoughts guys. Regards, Armands

          Spaces at beginning of title tag - negatively affect the optimization of the page?

          For some reason, our title tags have a long space after the beginning title tag and before the text appears. The beginning title tag is on one line, then a break, a tab and then the content of the title tag.  I'm pretty sure this is not good and is affecting optimization of the page.  Am I correct or is this not an issue and does not need to be fixed? Example: | <title></span></p> <p> </p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td class="line-number"> </td> <td class="line-content">                       First keyword</td> </tr> </tbody> </table></title> |

          Should i not use hyphens in web page titles? Google Penalty for hyphens?

          all the page titles  in my site have hyphens between the words like this: http://texas.com/texas-plumbers.html I have seen tests where hyphenated domain names ranked lower than non hyphenated domain names.  Does this mean my pages are being penalized for hyphens or is this only in the domain that it is penalized? If I create new pages should I not use hyphens in the page titles when there are two or more words in the title? If I changed all my page titles to eliminate the hyphens, I would lose all my rankings correct?  My site is 12 years old and if I changed all these titles I'm guessing that each page would be thrown in the google sandbox for several months, is this true? Thanks mozzers!

          Duplicate content on websites for multiple countries

          I have a client who has a website for their U.S. based customers. They are currently adding a Canadian dealer and would like a second website with much of the same info as their current website, but with Canadian contact info etc. What is the best way to do this without creating duplicate content that will get us penalized? If we create a website at ABCcompany.com and ABCCompany.ca or something like that, will that get us around the duplicate content penalty?

          URL structure for multiple cities?

          Hi, i am in the process of setting up a business directory site that will be used in a number of cities, though i am initially launching with only one city. My question is, what is the best URL structure to use for the site and should i start using this URL structure from day one? At the moment i am using www.mysite.com.au as my primary website where it contains all listings for the the one initial launch city. Though to plan for the future i was considering this URL structure: www.mysite.com.au/cityname so for example, if i launch in the city Sydney initially then all website traffic that goes to www.mysite.com.au would simply be redirected (302 temp redirect?) to www.mysite.com.au/sydney. When i expand to other cities www.mysite.com.au would simply be a "select your city" screen that then redirects to the city of choice (similar to www.groupon.com page). How would doing a 302 redirect from www.mysite.com.au to www.mysite.com.au/city impact on SEO for the initial launch? Or should i just place this on the root domain since no other cities exist at the moment?

          Is it necessary to redirect every Error page (404 or 500) found?

          If I have Hundreds of pages with 404 and 500 erros should set up 301 redirects for all of them?  Some of the pages have external links, some don't.
