Schema markup
-
Hi,
I'd love to use schema markup, but I don't think there is one for the type of products we sell (mortgages).
Does anyone know of a way of using schema markup for a page like this: https://www.turnkeymortgages.co.uk/mortgage/mortgage-rates/
The regulator for mortgages (FCA) in the UK has rules about how products are displayed, we have to show all the information in the table (see the link), and the compliance text (your home will be repossessed....) with every product. This is why I haven't tried to 'cobble' something together from the existing markup available - I can't fall foul of the regulator (or be misleading to customers).
Anyone have any thoughts on this? Or, should I just wait until Schema come up with a markup suitable for such products.

Thanks, Yes I agree there's no point in trying to shoe-horn something into what it isn't. I was just wondering if I'd missed something and it was possible!
Thanks for your input,
Amelia

My question would be: why do you want to use schema.org markup for attributes that Google doesn't currently show in the SERPs?
The answer might be: because I think that Panda might see schema.org markup as a good quality signal. And I'd tend to agree with that....but, if that's the case, why not use schema.org/Organization or schema.org/LocalBusiness for your company info in the footer of every page. You're giving Panda a happy little tasted of schema on every page, and don't sweat the regulators or blazing the trail on new schema attributes
FYI you could also mark up any blog posts or articles you write for the site with http://schema.org/Article as well.

Schema for Data in Tables
I'm adding itemprops to data in a table. They are all the same type of data, but each row has different specifications. Is it best to put the data under one tag? Or separate each row into it's own tag?

Size of image for article Schema
Hi, I implemented schema markup for an article and all tested fine and I can see it being fired in preview mode of Google Tag Manager. But when I run the URL which has it applied through Google Structured Testing tool it is not appearing. I have now read that the image needs to be a certain size. For AMP articles this appears to be 12oo pixels wide http://www.thesempost.com/google-changes-image-size-requirements-amp-articles/ But what about non-AMP articles? Does it need to be that big too?

Schema redirects for https migration
Hi, we are migrating our website to https. We have a lot of 301s in htaccess that we need to keep, changing the destiny to the https version of the site. At the same time, we need to make new 301 redirects from the http url´s to https url´s
Technical SEO | | unirmk
Our question is Could we combine this redirects in htaccess with a Schema redirect with 301 code? (Is it the same to use schema redirecs as using redirects in htaccess?) This would be the situation: Htaccess redirects: A http url ->301-> B http url -> (we change this in htaccess and use:)-> A http url ->301->B https url Schema redirect: B http url ->301-> B https url Thanks!0 -

Is Schema markup inappropriate for ?
Is Schema(.org) markup meant specifically to be used on text? Or can you use it in a similar way that you can use Open Graph Protocol? For example, for awhile I've been using something like this on my site: Because it's in the head section, it appears on every page. In review, this seems to be an incorrect use? Should I only be using Schema to mark specific text? If not, what are the consequences of using Schema like this?

Is Schema markup important for SEO?
I have recently come across the Schema markup and have researched what it's all about. Basically in short it helps search engines identify all the elements of the page. Our competitors have this implementated, so is this important for SEO? We have an e commerce store.

Should I add author markup to sales pages?
Adding author markup to the homepage or to SEO optimised sales landing pages is possible. However it doesn't really seem to be using the feature in the spirit of it's purpose. It makes sense for blog posts. It's possible for other pages and will likely improve CTRs from SERPs. But is it against the spirit of it's purpose?
