          What part of my page should I put Schema data? Header? Footer?

          Also All pages? or just home page?

            Oliver,

            Thank you for pointing out this "exception" to the Schema placement rule.  As is the case with any structured markup solution, there will, from time to time, be cases where certain, specific elements go in the "head" section of the code.  Anything that applies to an individual page in its entirety, and does not limit itself to an element of content within the page does, in fact, belong in the "head" area of the page code.

                I agree with Alan. The standards are demonstrated on the schema.org website. Here is a link using a recipe as an example of how to mark up a page: http://schema.org/Recipe

                  Always place schema markup directly in the position on the page where you want the content to appear if it's content specific - wrapping it around that content. So if your business name and address are in the main content area, that's where you place the schema code.  It's literally a wrapper just like a CSS div would be, or an old-school HTML table, but not for display purposes on-site.

                  EDITED 11/14/2013 based on a question from Oliver (below) regarding situations where markup is located in the "head" area of the page:

                  Exceptions to "in-body" markup:

                  As is the case with any structured markup solution, there will, from time to time, be cases where certain, specific elements go in the "head" section of the code.  Anything that applies to an individual page in its entirety, and does not limit itself to an element of content within the page does, in fact, belong in the "head" area of the page code.

                        What Schema data are you referring to? Different microtags will apply to different pages. Generally, anywhere you can use a microtag, you should.

                          Home Page Ranking Instead of Service Pages

                          Hi everyone! I've noticed that many of our clients have pages addressing specific queries related to specific services on their websites, but that the Home Page is increasingly showing as the "ranking" page. For example, a plastic surgeon we work with has a page specifically talking about his breast augmentation procedure for Miami, FL but instead of THAT page showing in the search results, Google is using his home page. Noticing this across the board. Any insights? Should we still be optimizing these specific service pages? Should I be spending time trying to make sure Google ranks the page specifically addressing that query because it SHOULD perform better? Thanks for the help. Confused SEO :/, Ricky Shockley

                          Is it good to redirect million of pages on a single page?

                          My site has 10 lakh approx. genuine urls. But due to some unidentified bugs site has created irrelevant urls 10 million approx.  Since we don’t know the origin of these non-relevant links, we want to redirect or remove all these urls. Please suggest is it good to redirect such a high number urls to home page or to throw 404 for these pages.  Or any other suggestions to solve this issue.

                          Sitemap indexed pages dropping

                          About a month ago I noticed my pages indexed from my sitemap are dropping.There are 134 pages in my sitemap and only 11 are indexed. It used to be 117 pages and just died off quickly. I still seem to be getting consistant search traffic but I'm just not sure whats causing this. There are no warnings or manual actions required in GWT that I can find.

                          Can you noindex a page, but still index an image on that page?

                          If a blog is centered around visual images, and we have specific pages with high quality content that we plan to index and drive our traffic, but we have many pages with our images...what is the best way to go about getting these images indexed? We want to noindex all the pages with just images because they are thin content... Can you noindex,follow a page, but still index the images on that page? Please explain how to go about this concept.....

                          Page titles in browser not matching WP page title

                          I have an issue with a few page titles not matching the title I have In WordPress.  I have 2 pages, blog & creative gallery, that show the homepage title, which is causing duplicate title errors.  This has been going on for 5 weeks, so its not an a crawl issue.  Any ideas what could cause this? To clarify, I have the page title set in WP, and I checked "Disable PSP title format on this page/post:"...but this page is still showing the homepage title.  Is there an additional title setting for a page in WP?

                          Splitting Page Authority with two URLs for the same page.

                          Hello guys, My website is currently holding two different URLs for the same page and I am under the impression such set up is dividing my Page Authority and Link Juice. We currently have the following page with both URLs below: www.wbresearch.com/soldiertechnologyusa/home.aspx
                          www.wbresearch.com/soldiertechnologyusa/ Analysing the page authority and backlinks I identified that we are splitting the amount of backlinks (links from sites, social media and therefore authority). "/home.aspx"
                          PA: 67
                          Linking Root Domains: 52
                          Total Links: 272 "/"
                          PA: 64
                          Linking Root Domains: 29
                          Total Links: 128 I am under the impression that if the URLs were the same we would maximise our backlinks and therefore page authority. My Question: How can I fix this? Should I have a 301 redirect from the page "/" to the "/home.aspx" therefore passing the authority and link juice of “/” directly to “/homes.aspx”? Trying to gather thoughts and ideas on this, suggestions are much appreciated? Thanks!
