I have a site with jokes. What schema markup could I use?
-
My site is about jokes. I wonder what schema markup could I use to be more visible in the search results.

Thank you very much. And what do you think about the other questions?

There a good article on best practices for pagination here, on Moz: https://moz.com/blog/pagination-best-practices-for-seo-user-experience
I personally think, that 10 jokes per page is not a very good practice (obviously depends on how long the jokes are).
1. 100 Jokes is too much to swallow in one sitting.
2. People don't like pagination when it comes to entertaining content, it always seems like you just want to grab more clicks out of nothing.I would break those 100 jokes into 5 separate posts, via keyword research, which will help you find neutral niches for your jokes, regardless of your content. Something like "Best jokes for teenagers" (~600 monthly searches) / best new jokes (~ 400 searches, and who cares if they're not really new).
It's better to have 5 different posts like that one, it's easier to rank for these keywords as they're less competitive than just "best jokes", and you'll have a solid semantic structure, crawlers will see that your website is all bout lists of jokes, which is what you really want to achieve here.

Thank you very much indeed. I am new to Schema.org.
Is this how I should do the list:
Title of list
Joke 1
Jokes 2
....I have a Top 100 on 10 sites (pagination). Shall I use always the same title? Or can I used on each site a slightly different title (e.g. Jokes Top 100 | Part 3)
Shall I put something else on the site (for example in the head of the site.)
-
I would create lists. So list item markup.
Something like "25 Best Jokes About Horses", "17 Funniest Puns","Best knock-knock jokes"
Btw, Buzzfeed ranks on #0 for the last one: http://i.imgur.com/bws4qDe.png And they used a simple list item for markup.

Hreflang - Is it needed even if the site is only one language
This topic came up in a discussion I had with a fellow SEO colleague, I don't believe it makes sense to have Hreflang if you don't have a second language but according to my friend they mentioned that it is great if your only targeting one country. Any opinions out in the Moz community? It seems like overkill to me

Site name in page title - leave it or remove it?
Hi all, Recently came across some authority blog (quicksprout to be precise) which stated that apart from main page, contact page, about us and some other generic pages, site name should be removed as it might produce duplicate content. example "How to blog | Example Site name" This mostly is the issue with tags and categories pages as it shows on Moz issues. Is that really a problem and site name should be taken off them? Thank you.

Using Schema markup for Feefo reviews
I am a little confused about whether or not it is ok to use Schema markup with reviews collected through Feefo. We use Feefo to collect reviews from our customers and these get displayed on our website. We get service ratings as well as product ratings through Feefo. My question is: Is it ok to use Schema markup for these? I would have thought they would fall under 3rd party reviews, but this article from the Feefo website seems to suggest that it would be ok to use markup in the way they recommend. Can anyone confirm how Google handles review markup like this? Thanks in advance!

On Site Question: Duplicate H2...
Hi All A few on-site audit tools pull information on duplicate H2 tags on pages. This implies it's a bad thing and should be fixed - is that the case? On one of my sites the tag-line is in H2 in the header, so appears on every page... Just wondering if this is something worth fixing. Thanks

Tags vs. Categories? What should I use?
I'm starting with a blog (self-hosted wordpress) and I'm thinking of the following content structure so that the readers are easily able to locate relevant content: Background: It's a blog which gives people relevant info about government jobs. To start with we will just be publishing information about these jobs but over a period of time also intend to post content that helps readers prepare for these jobs. In other words, right now it's just about detailed job notifications but in the coming months, we shall also post about preparation-related information. Typically, each of the job notifications can be bifurcated like: Jobs basis industry Banking Railways Clinical, etc. Jobs basis company ABC co. DEF co. XYZ co. etc. Jobs basis State / City City 1 City 2, etc. Jobs basis educational qualification Graduation Post-Graduation, etc. Now, I'm seriously confused how should I structure this data from the perspective of Categories & Tags such that it's reader as well as SEO-friendly. Do note that each of the government jobs post ideally falls in a couple of above mentioned categories. Thanks..

Best Domain Name for Life Coaching Site
Hello, I am an NLP health coach. I am starting to work with both life threatening illnesses and minor diagnoses. NLP is a type of personal development. I'm wondering what your opinion of the best domain would be, keeping in mind branding, SEO, and usability/rememberability. The term "NLP" is not well known. I will be doing both phone coaching and in-person coaching. My other website (BobWeikel.com) is not very strong because of the lack of keywords in the domain, but it's easy to remember. Options are: NLPTrained.com BobWeikelHealthCoach.com BoiseHealthCoach.com (I'm in Boise Idaho) RobertWeikel.com or whatever you suggest.

Should I use my blog posts in a sub folder
Ok I did a search and didn't see an answer to this exact question. Most of them were about if a blog should be in a sub folder and not the blog posts themselves... so here it goes. I have a blog on my website the blog itself is in /blog/ but the blog posts themselves are situated in the root folder so it looks something like mydomain.com/cool-seo-blog-post/ Is there any reason I should change this and make it read mydomain.com/blog/cool-seo-blog-post/
