Schema Markup adds whitespace
-
We have this white space below our logo when our local schema markup is added: http://d.pr/i/73EmV0
Can the markup be hidden to remove the space and still be indexed by google?

Always use Google's easy tool to check if it's correct :
https://search.google.com/structured-data/testing-tool/u/0/
Droplr https://d.pr/n/kcCofm of code you need to add your logo & price range but you need to swap that out with a copy of the image uploaded to your server you can see where I added a Droplr URL just create a JPEG or PNG of your logo please replace with URL from your server the logo is here too https://i.imgur.com/NIcoDG6.jpg
I added the all your information above, your hours, social media URLs, longitude latitude for geo-coordinates, everything but the pricing which is explained below. you can add by simply putting this in "priceRange": "$$",
GeoCoordinates","latitude":35.23783,"longitude":-80.909208}
time convert Your hours 7:00 am = 7:00 7:00 PM = 19:00 & 5:00 PM = 17:00
time: http://projets.pavie.info/yohours/?oh=Mo-Th 07:00-19:00; Fr 07:00-17:00; Jan 16 off

Pricing
to add price range ad price and/or the number of $ from 1 to 3 very pricey $$$ the number of dollar signs indicates your price vs. the competition "priceRange": "$$", Like below.

| | itemprop="name">Heritage Custom Signs & Displays |
| | itemprop="address" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/PostalAddress"> |
| | itemprop="streetAddress">2731 Interstate Street |
| | itemprop="addressLocality">Charlotte, |
| | itemprop="addressRegion">NC |
| | itemprop="postalCode">28208 |

Hey Kevin,
Can you show me code your using for local schema?
if you are using Microdata it is most likely something modifying the code and making the white space.
One thing you can do is switch to JSON-LD it is faster and much easier to deploy. You can also use this tool to re-create your schema and check it with Google Webmaster tools in either format.
https://technicalseo.com/seo-tools/schema-markup-generator/ It even validates with Google.
I hope this helps,
Tom
PS Droper rocks I wish everyone used it.

Unsolved Duplicate LocalBusiness Schema Markup
Hello! I've been having a hard time finding an answer to this specific question so I figured I'd drop it here. I always add custom LocalBusiness markup to clients' homepages, but sometimes the client's website provider will include their own automated LocalBusiness markup. The codes I create often include more information. Assuming the website provider is unwilling to remove their markup, is it a bad idea to include my code as well? It seems like it could potentially be read as spammy by Google. Do the pros of having more detailed markup outweigh that potential negative impact?

Has Anyone Successfully implemented SpecialAnnouncement Schema?
Hello, I'm in the process of updating my clients' websites with the SpecialAnnouncement Schema type, and I'm wondering if anyone has successfully done so yet, and whether or not they're seeing any kind of results /richsnippets directly in SERPs from it? Also, has anyone else run into issues checking their schema with Google's Structured Data Testing Tool? Sometimes I get an error saying "specialAnnouncement is not a type known to Google," and sometimes I get one saying that "the property datePosted is not recognized by Google for an object of type SpecialAnnouncement." I assume these errors are because the schema type is so new, but you know what happens when you assume... Thank you for any insights!

Can I have multiple GeoShape Schema for one page on one domain?
Hi Mozers, I'm working on some Schema for a client of mine, but whilst doing the research on GeoShapes with my developer, we came across a potential issue with this particular mark-up. My client is B2C business, operating in numerous places across the UK. I want to use the Circle property from GeoShape to draw out multiple circles across the UK, but am I able to do this? From looking at some other websites, most seem to just have one GeoShape. Can I have multiple on the same page and same domain? Thanks! Virginia

Does Schema Replace Conventional NAP in local SEO?
Hello Everyone, My question is in regards to Schema and whether the it replaces the need for the conventional structured data NAP configuration. Because you have the ability to specifically call out variables (such as Name, URL, Address, Phone number ect.) is it still necessary to keep the NAP form-factor that has historically been required for local SEO? Logically it makes sense that schema would allow someone to reverse this order and still achieve the same result, however I have yet to find any conclusive evidence of this being the case. Thanks, and I look forward to what the community has to say on this matter.

What's the best way to add phrase keywords to the URL?
Hi, Our keywords are all our service + a list of towns (for example, "carpet cleaning St. Louis"). The issue I'm having is that one particular site could be targeting "carpet cleaning St. Louis", "carpet cleaning Manchester", "carpet cleaning Ballwin", "carpet cleaning Kirkwood", etc. etc. etc... up to maybe 15 different towns. Is there a way to effectively add these keywords into the URL without making it look spammy? I'm having the same issue with adding the exact keywords to the page title, img alt tag, etc. Thanks for any advice/input!
