          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!

                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!

                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!

                Can an "Event" in Structured Data For Google Be A Webinar?

                I have a client who is has structured data for live business webinars. Google's documentation seems to talk more about music and tickets than this kind of thing. At the same time, we get an error in search console for "Name" and location, which they list as "webinar." Should I removed this failed structured data attempt or is there a way to fix it? Thanks!

                Url structure for multiple search filters applied to products

                We have a product catalog with several hundred similar products. Our list of products allows you apply filters to hone your search, so that in fact there are over 150,000 different individual searches you could come up with on this page. Some of these searches are relevant to our SEO strategy, but most are not. Right now (for the most part) we save the state of each search with the fragment of the URL, or in other words in a way that isn't indexed by the search engines. The URL (without hashes) ranks very well in Google for our one main keyword. At the moment, Google doesn't recognize the variety of content possible on this page. An example is: http://www.example.com/main-keyword.html#style=vintage&color=blue&season=spring We're moving towards a more indexable URL structure and one that could potentially save the state of all 150,000 searches in a way that Google could read. An example would be: http://www.example.com/main-keyword/vintage/blue/spring/ I worry, though, that giving so many options in our URL will confuse Google and make a lot of duplicate content. After all, we only have a few hundred products and inevitably many of the searches will look pretty similar. Also, I worry about losing ground on the main http://www.example.com/main-keyword.html page, when it's ranking so well at the moment. So I guess the questions are: Is there such a think as having URLs be too specific? Should we noindex or set rel=canonical on the pages whose keywords are nested too deep? Will our main keyword's page suffer when it has to share all the inbound links with these other, more specific searches?

                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?

                How to prevent Google from crawling our product filter?

                Hi All, We have a crawler problem on one of our sites www.sneakerskoopjeonline.nl. On this site, visitors can specify criteria to filter available products. These filters are passed as http/get arguments. The number of possible filter urls is virtually limitless. In order to prevent duplicate content, or an insane amount of pages in the search indices, our software automatically adds noindex, nofollow and noarchive directives to these filter result pages. However, we’re unable to explain to crawlers (Google in particular) to ignore these urls. We’ve already changed the on page filter html to javascript, hoping this would cause the crawler to ignore it. However, it seems that Googlebot executes the javascript and crawls the generated urls anyway. What can we do to prevent Google from crawling all the filter options? Thanks in advance for the help. Kind regards, Gerwin
