Recommended Schema for a Collection/Category page?

[paul-bold]

Hi There!

Taking on a  small project up updating and adding in Schema to a clients site; a previous developer half put in data vocabulary. In my planning I was wondering if their would be a best schema type for category page of products - or a collection of products? Any ideas and experience?

Thanks!

Hi Dylan,

As Patrick said, you can use the category mark up in Offer from Schema.

Aggregate rating is another one that may be useful as this can be used for a collection of reviews and ratings rather than for individual products.

While we're on this topic, I thought I'd link to this excellent guide on microformats which may come in handy as you're working through this for your client:

Cheers.

Hi Dylan

There is a "category" itemprop in Offer. Take a look here.

You can also look into breadcrumb.

Let me know if this helps at all. Good luck!
