From what I've encountered Johnathan, one of the easiest successful websites I have made in which it was completely thriving and I was succeeding in obtaining about 2-4 thousand unique visitors a day. I maintained this with reddit and a massive sized tumblr, Google had 0 involvement with me for a couple months.
After my Twitter profile was ranking in the top 5 of my target keyword twice, that second time for almost a week juiced up on celebrity engagement, they finally did something on my behlaf. It wasn't anything like hand extended, or a cold beer in hand. more like, they stopped blocking the doorway, how kind.
What I'm getting at is for some reason none of my lacking schema seemed to matter whatsoever or popunder script, the popup on the videos, the lack of adding nofollow tags to my questionable affiliates, and minus using yoast and making everything have 2 green dots, my site was highly questionable on several on site issues. But at the end of the day it seems if you make Google money, that's what matters apparently.

More likely than not, schematic markups aren't a high priority for Moz at this point. With a thousand and one other items to address and work on, prioritization and allocation of resources kicks in and schematic markups might not be as important for Moz. I also think that Google does a pretty good job of marking up Moz's content without active intervention on the part of Moz's staff, so they've de-prioritized that.

Schema for Rebate
Let's say I have a list of rebates available in either a fixed or percentage based format. I'm looking for the most appropriate schema.org code to use for this, currently using aggregateOffer for the list and referencing the name of each rebate, but search console advises that "lowprice" isn't specified, and I only seem to be able to specify a fixed price in the local currency here. I don't think using "lowprice" is appropriate here because this isn't a list of products with the lowest price, but it's a list of rebates to choose from. Is there anything that is more appropriate to use in this case than aggregateOffer?

I'm looking to put a quite length FAQs tab on product pages on an ecommerce site. Am I likely to have duplicate content issues?
On an ecommerce site we have unique content on the product pages (i.e. descriptions), as well as the usual delivery and returns tabs for customer convenience. From this we haven't had any duplicate content issues or warnings, which seems to be the case industry-wide. However, we're looking to add a more lengthy FAQs tab which is still highly relevant to the customer but contains a lot more text than the other tabs. The product descriptions are also relatively small. Do you think this will cause potential duplicate content issues or should it be treated the same as a delivery tab, for instance?

Can soft 404's hurt my rankings?
This post mainly pertains to soft 404's but I recently dropped a few ranks in my main keyword which I have maintained prior to this my better rank for well over 2 years. I participate in NO BLACKHAT and obtain links naturally. I want to describe a few issues that happened prior to my ranking dropping and see what you guys think. I started to receive about a week prior to my ranks dropping DNS issues with GWT. It was weird because when I would use Goole Fetch on those pages they would return just fine so I was not sure what was happening there. I use Google page speed server which did in fact decrease my load time (YEAH!!) so that was cool. About 1 week prior to my rankings dropping I enabled godaddy's Website Accelerator as well thinking that could help even more. Because of this I thought maybe this had something to do with my DNS issues with Google so I decided to turn off my website accelerator with Godaddy and just leave my Google pagespeed service on. I figure I don't need 2 of them anyways IMO. Also at the same time I started to receive a ton (31,000+) html errors with duplicate metadescriptions and titles. I discovered I had an error with my code which was displaying 2 different sets of descriptions and titles for each of these pages. I since then have fixed the issue and waiting for Google to index those pages. Here is were I think I might have been hurting from the drop in rankings. Some months ago (maybe 2) I decided to redirect my 404's to my homepage. Yes I know this is not good now and I have created a proper 404 page which returns the 404 code. I recently started getting a ton of Soft 404 errors in GWT which is what brought my attention to this issue. My question is, could my action of redirecting my users to my homepage as a 404 which obviously was returning a 200 on a page that did not exist be possibly the culprit to my ranks dropping?
