          Hi,

          I’m looking  to add Schema markup to my company pages’s webinar page (recording past webinars) and data sheets, infographics, product videos, eBooks/white papers. For eBooks, I am primarily referring to a landing page with a gate to download a PDF document.

          I’m trying to determine the best markup type:

          For Webinars, I’ve seen suggestions to use “Event” type but that seems appropriate for future events, not something like a recorded webinar, which is not time-sensitive, unlike a live event. However, I see a StackOverflow forum to use http://schema.org/recordedIn for recorded webinars.

          For eBooks and White Papers, I see a few potential schema types:

          https://schema.org/DigitalDocument

          https://schema.org/CreativeWork

          http://schema.org/EBook (or https://schema.org/Book and then book format type of Ebook)

              @WhiteHat1 Hey there! For a webinar, the most appropriate schema would be a combination of Event and OnDemandEvent due to its online nature. However, as of my last update, OnDemandEvent was more suitable for an event like a movie or TV show that is available for streaming whenever you want to watch it, rather than a live webinar that takes place at a specific time.

              For most live webinars, you should use the Event type with an eventAttendanceMode property set to OnlineEventAttendanceMode. The VirtualLocation type would also be used instead of a physical address.

              Here's an example of what that schema might look like:

              <script type="application/ld+json">
              {
              "@context": "https://schema.org",
              "@type": "Event",
              "name": "Interactive Webinar on Data Science",
              "description": "Join our expert panel as they delve into the latest trends in Data Science. This webinar will cover a range of topics from predictive analytics to deep learning.",
              "startDate": "2023-12-01T18:00:00+00:00",
              "endDate": "2023-12-01T19:30:00+00:00",
              "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OnlineEventAttendanceMode",
              "eventStatus": "https://schema.org/EventScheduled",
              "location": {
              "@type": "VirtualLocation",
              "url": "https://www.webinarhost.com/event123"
              },
              "image": "https://www.webinarhost.com/images/event123_banner.jpg",
              "organizer": {
              "@type": "Organization",
              "name": "Data Science Community Forum",
              "url": "https://www.datascienceforum.org"
              },
              "performer": {
              "@type": "Person",
              "name": "Dr. Jane Doe",
              "url": "https://www.datascienceforum.org/speakers#JaneDoe"
              },
              "offers": {
              "@type": "Offer",
              "url": "https://www.webinarhost.com/register/event123",
              "price": "0",
              "priceCurrency": "USD",
              "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock",
              "validFrom": "2023-11-01T09:00:00+00:00"
              },
              "audience": {
              "@type": "EducationalAudience",
              "audienceType": "Professional"
              },
              "recordedIn": {
              "@type": "CreativeWork",
              "name": "Data Science Webinar Series"
              }
              }
              </script>

              Some points to consider:

              eventAttendanceMode: Specifies that the event is an online event.
              location: Uses VirtualLocation with a url property to indicate where the webinar can be accessed.
              offers: Contains details about the registration or ticketing, which in this case indicates a free event.
              recordedIn: If the webinar is part of a series, you might include this to reference the series.
              Make sure to validate your structured data using Google's Rich Results Test or similar tools to check for any errors or warnings that might affect how search engines interpret and display your content.

              I really hope that this helps!

                What to do with sold product pages when everything you sell are unique one off items

                Hi there, This is something i have been unsure of for years. It's a little different to most ecom website  situations. What would you do with product pages when every product is a "one off" unique product and once sold will never be for sale again? Should i redirect to a category page? 404? Leave it as is marked as sold or say it is sold and show links to similar items? At the moment we have 700 products for sale but over 5000 sold products that have their own product page and my concern is as this grows it could become a lot for a WordPress woocommerce site to handle? I don't want to do anything to slow my site down or unnecessarily bloat it but i want to do the right thing by the visitor and also not do anything to hurt my rankings. These pages often rank in google and may have been there for years before the item actually sells. To throw another curve ball, there may be multiple other products (for sale or already sold) with the exact same name but are unique and different from each other. These products pages will often be 98% the same content as each other too. To explain how this could be the case, we sell artworks from many different artists, Every artwork is an original and is unique. But many artists paint the same subject matter multiple times, albeit in a slightly different way from previous times. So you end up with a unique product that has everything the same as another (same artist, same name of artwork, same size, same description, different image, different sku)  but is actually different and unique. This has left me somewhat uncertain of what is best to do. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

                Video titles and descriptions

                Hi everyone, I have a question about embedding videos on a website: if you optimize the title and description for the video in Youtube, will these be taken into account for the ranking of the page where the video is embedded? Or will only the Youtube link for the video show in SERP's, instead of the page itself? I've read in a post of Phil Nottingham that it's usually not a good idea to embed a Youtube video on your own site, but use Wistia instead, exactly to avoid cannibalisation of your own rankings. Is this correct? Thanks!

                My website has been indexed on google and all of its pages can be found on google except for the product category pages - which are where we want our traffic heading to, so this is a big problem for us. Our website is www.skirtinguk.com And an example of a page that isn't being indexed is https://www.skirtinguk.com/product-category/mdf-skirting-board/

                Best Practices for Title Tags for Product Listing Page

                My industry is commercial real estate in New York City. Our site has 300 real estate listings. The format we have been using for Title Tags are below. This probably disastrous from an SEO perspective. Using number is a total waste space. A few questions:
                -Should we set listing not no index if they are not content rich?
                -If we do choose to index them, should we avoid titles listing Square Footage and dollar amounts?
                -Since local SEO is critical, should the titles always list New York, NY or Manhattan, NY?
                -I have red that titles should contain some form of branding. But our company name is Metro Manhattan Office Space. That would take up way too much space. Even "Metro Manhattan" is long. DO we need to use the title tag for branding or can we just focus on a brief description of page content incorporating one important phrase? Our site is: w w w . m e t r o - m a n h a t t a n . c o m <colgroup><col width="405"></colgroup>

                Are "Powered By..." type footer backlinks good or bad for SEO?

                Hi guys, We're running a software company which is also selling WP themes amongst other things. We've heard recently that footer backlinks like "Powered by BigBangThemes" might do more harm than good. Some clients usually forget to change them - so we want to make sure we stop including them in case this is true. Thanks!

                What is the best practice for URLs for E-commerce products in multiple categories?

                Hello all! I have always worked successfully with SEO on E-commerce sites, however we are currently revamping an older site for a client and so I thought I'd turn to the community to ask what the best practices that you guys are experiencing for url structures at the moment. Obviously we do not wish to create duplicate content and so the big question is, what would you guys do for the very best structure for URLs on an E-commerce site that has products in multiple categories? Let's imagine we are selling toy cars. I have a sports car for sale, so naturally it can go in the sports cars category and it could also go in to the convertibles category too. What is the best way you have found recently that works and increases rankings, but does not create duplicate content? Thanks in advance! 🙂 Kind Regards, JDM

                Should I change my product titles from singular to plural to satisfy optimisation?

                At present most of our products are listed in the singular form. http://www.towelsrus.co.uk/towels-bath-towels/aztex/turkish-cotton-bath-towel_ct473bd182pd2744.htm However we are optimising for the plural form after carrying out keyword research The question is should I update the product title to reflect this change? This would then change the URL of the page, H1 tag, H2 tag (both auto generated from the product title) My concern here is that these pages will then become "new pages" and will need to index and rank, albeit they don't rank well as they have never been optimised until now. I could put 301 re-directs in place on the old URL's or i could just let the return a 404. What do people think?

                We are considering adding videos to thousands of article pages, and were wondering if it would be better to add video above or below the fold? They take up quite a bit of space, and push the article content below the fold--would this hurt us?
