          I am trying to get my content in the Google Knowledge graph. Everything I've read thus far about Knowledge Graph tells us how to get in for branded terms (e.g. company name or your own name). But I am looking for ways to have my content be indexed and shown in Google graph.

          For example, if you search for "mayonnaise for hair" you will see Knowledge graph show us a snippet from an article on RealSimple.com. **How do you get your content to show here? **

          I've been reading a lot about SameAs markup, but it seems to only help for branded terms, so companies can have a knowledge box for their brand. But does it help for non-branded keywords?

          I appreciate any advice. Thanks.

            Thank you, Everett! I didn't know that Answers box and Knowledge Graph are two different things. I'll take a look at the blog post you linked to.

              Hello Texture Media Inc,

              It's tough to keep up on what the various parts of different SERPs are these days. They're constantly expanding and changing. The only person I know who can keep up is Dr. Pete, and that's just barely. 😉

              I think what you're wanting to do is get content in the Answers Box, as opposed to the Knowledge Graph. This should answer your questions: http://cognitiveseo.com/blog/6121/total-serp-domination-using-the-new-google-answer-box-technique/

              SameAs should be used for connecting various pages about the entity, including social but also Wikipedia pages and other official "About" pages. It's a good idea to use this tag, but isn't going to help with what you're trying to do, specifically.

                Thank you for your response, Martijn. I was thinking the same thing. Everything I've read thus far about SameAs speaks to connecting bios and social profiles.

                  SameAs markup probably won't be enough as for now it's really meant to be used for identifying social network accounts for a specific Web site. What I would also look into is marking up your actual content via Schema.org because Google probably will need the data for it's knowledge graph in some structured way at least.

                      Hi there

                      I think it can help indirectly. Especially as Google associates your brand and website to particular topics (if you are optimizing properly and writing great content). If you are killing it from a topic association level, I can see having "SameAs" markup possibly benefiting your brand on a non-branded level as those topics are associated with your site and Google (and other search engines) notice those SameAs connections to your other platforms or areas, and possibly return your site or other channels in non-branded search.

                      That's my take. Excited to see what everyone else says - great question! Good luck!

                        Will I be flagged for duplicate content by Google?

                        Hi Moz community, Had a question regarding duplicate content that I can't seem to find the answer to on Google. My agency is working on a large number of franchisee websites (over 40) for one client, a print franchise, that wants a refresh of new copy and SEO. Each print shop has their own 'microsite', though all services and products are the same, the only difference being the location. Each microsite has its own unique domain. To avoid writing the same content over and over in 40+ variations, would all the websites be flagged by Google for duplicate content if we were to use the same base copy, with the only changes being to the store locations (i.e. where we mention Toronto print shop on one site may change to Kelowna print shop on another)? Since the print franchise owns all the domains, I'm wondering if that would be a problem since the sites aren't really competing with one another. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again!

                        Can you index a Google doc?

                        We have updated and added completely new content to our state pages. Our old state content is sitting in a our Google drive. Can I make these public to get them indexed and provide a link back to our state pages? In theory it sounds like a great link building strategy... TIA!

                        We have a client that will not grant us access to their Google Search Console (don't ask us why). Is there anyway possible to submit a XML sitemap to Google without using GSC? Thanks

                        "Null" appearing as top keyword in "Content Keywords" under Google index in Google Search Console

                        Hi, "Null" is appearing as top keyword in Google search console > Google Index > Content Keywords for our site http://goo.gl/cKaQ4K . We do not use "null" as keyword on site. We are not able to find why Google is treating "null" as a keyword for our site. Is anyone facing such issue. Thanks & Regards

                        Google and Product Description Tabs

                        How does Google process a product page with description tabs?  For example, lets say the product page has a tab for Overview, Specifications, What's In the Box and so on. Wouldn't that content be better served in one main product description tab with the tab names used as (htags) or highlighted paragraph separators? Or, does all that content get crawled as a single page regardless of the tabs?

                        Google Indexing Feedburner Links???

                        I just noticed that for lots of the articles on my website, there are two results in Google's index. For instance: http://www.thewebhostinghero.com/articles/tools-for-creating-wordpress-plugins.html and http://www.thewebhostinghero.com/articles/tools-for-creating-wordpress-plugins.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+thewebhostinghero+(TheWebHostingHero.com) Now my Feedburner feed is set to "noindex" and it's always been that way. The canonical tag on the webpage is set to: rel='canonical' href='http://www.thewebhostinghero.com/articles/tools-for-creating-wordpress-plugins.html' /> The robots tag is set to: name="robots" content="index,follow,noodp" /> I found out that there are scrapper sites that are linking to my content using the Feedburner link. So should the robots tag be set to "noindex" when the requested URL is different from the canonical URL? If so, is there an easy way to do this in Wordpress?
