    For FAQ Schema markup, do we need to include every FAQ that is on the page in the markup, or can we use only selected FAQs?

      The website FAQ page we are working on has more than 50 FAQs. FAQ Schema guidelines say the markup must be an exact match with the content. Does that mean all 50+ FAQs must be in the mark-up? Or does that mean the few FAQs we decided to put in the markup are an exact match?

        I would gravitate to marking everything up and letting Google decide what they want to show. Most of the time when you try to 'sculpt' what Google can see in terms of structured data, it usually results in a structured data spam action. Sometimes it can take weeks, months or years for that to happen - but Google always want to be given the full picture.

        Google don't take too kindly to being funneled in a certain direction. Schema and rich snippet spam have been a big headache for Google since they started utilising structured data more, some stuff (like author avatars for posts in SERPs) has been entirely taken away in the past (though someone has told me recently, they have been seeing these again for Google mobile layout only).

        Google do have some official guidance here:

        https://developers.google.com/search/docs/data-types/faqpage

        They give a microdata example of implementation: https://search.google.com/test/rich-results?utm_campaign=devsite&utm_medium=microdata&utm_source=faq-page

        In their example, nothing is missing or has been left out. Since that's how Google have illustrated their example, that's what I'd aim for myself

          Should I use the on classified listing pages that have expired?

          We have went back and forth on this and wanted to get some outside input.  I work for an online listing website that has classified ads on it.  These ads are generated by companies on our site advertising weekend events around the country. We have about 10,000 companies that use our service to generate their online ads. This means that we have thousands of pages being created each week. The ads have lots of content: pictures, sale descriptions, and company information. After the ads have expired, and the sale is no longer happening, we are currently placing the in the heads of each page. The content is not relative anymore since the ad has ended. The only value the content offers a searcher is the images (there are millions on expired ads) and the descriptions of the items for sale.  We currently are the leader in our industry and control most of the top spots on Google for our keywords. We have been worried about cluttering up the search results with pages of ads that are expired.  In our Moz account right now we currently have over 28k crawler warnings alerting us to the  being in the page heads of the expired ads. Seeing those warnings have made us nervous and second guessing what we are doing. Does anybody have any thoughts on this? Should we continue with placing the  in the heads of the expired ads, or should we be allowing search engines to index the old pages.  I have seen websites with discontinued products keeping the products around so that individuals can look up past information. This is the closest thing have seen to our situation. Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated! -Matt

          Creating Redirect Maps -To include PDFs or Not to include PDFs?

          When creating a redirect map for a site re-build or domain change, it is necessary to include .PDFs or any other non-HTML URLs? Do PDFs even carry "seo juice" over? When switching CMS, does it even matter to include them? Thanks!

          Using hreflang for international pages - is this how you do it?

          My client is trying to achieve a global presence in select countries, and then track traffic from their international pages in Google Analytics. The content for the international pages is pretty much the same as for USA pages, but the form and a few other details are different due to how product licensing has to be set up. I don’t want to risk losing ranking for existing USA pages due to issues like duplicate content etc. What is the best way to approach this? This is my first foray into this and I’ve been scanning the MOZ topics but a number of the conversations are going over my head,so suggestions will need to be pretty simple 🙂 Is it a case of adding hreflang code to each page and creating different URLs for tracking. For example:
          URL for USA: https://company.com/en-US/products/product-name/
          URL for Canada: https://company.com/en-ca/products/product-name /
          URL for German Language Content: https://company.com/de/products/product-name /
          URL for rest of the world: https://company.com/en/products/product-name /

          Using "nofollow" internally can help with crawl budget?

          Hello everyone. I was reading this article on semrush.com, published the last year, and I'd like to know your thoughts about it: https://www.semrush.com/blog/does-google-crawl-relnofollow-at-all/ Is that really the case? I thought that Google crawls and "follows" nofollowed tagged links even though doesn't pass any PR to the destination link. If instead Google really doesn't crawl internal links tagged as "nofollow", can that really help with crawl budget?

          Effect of Removing Footer Links In all Pages Except Home Page

          Dear MOZ Community: In an effort to improve the user interface of our business website (a New York CIty commercial real estate agency) my designer eliminated a standardized footer containing links to about 20 pages. The new design maintains this footer on the home page, but all other pages (about 600 eliminate the footer). The new design does a very good job eliminating non essential items. Most of the changes remove or reduce the size of unnecessary design elements. The footer removal is the only change really effect the link structure. The new design is not launched yet. Hoping to receive some good advice from the MOZ community before proceeding My concern is that removing these links could have an adverse or unpredictable effect on ranking. Last Summer we launched a completely redesigned version of the site and our ranking collapsed for 3 months. However unlike the previous upgrade this modifications does not URL names, tags, text or any major element. Only major change is the footer removal. Some of the footer pages provide good (not critical) info for visitors. Note the footer will still appear on the home page but will be removed on the interior pages. Are we risking any detrimental ranking effect by removing this footer? Can we compensate by adding text links to these pages if the links from the footer are removed? Seems irregular to have a home page footer but no footer on the other pages. Are we inviting any downgrade, penalty, adverse SEO effect by implementing this? I very much like the new design but do not want to risk a fall in rank and traffic. Thanks for your input!!!

          Should the sitemap include just menu pages or all pages site wide?

          I have a Drupal site that utilizes Solr, with 10 menu pages and about 4,000 pages of content. Redoing a few things and we'll need to revamp the sitemap. Typically I'd jam all pages into a single sitemap and that's it, but post-Panda, should I do anything different?
