          Thanks

            Video content and audio content can be indexed and made SEO friendly  which can improve the search visibility on varied search options of the search engines.

            One of the ways is to add the video and audio content using microdata as per the schema.org.

            Usually when we add video we embed the code generated via YouTube for that video if it is on YouTube or for that matter any other video broadcasting site like vimeo, Ted, etc.

            For example:

            <iframe width="”560″" height="”315″" src="”http://www.youtube.com/embed/7xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx?list=UU0LI2nnnSO6lP8ZFj9FIdyA&hl=en_US”" frameborder="”0″" allowfullscreen=""></iframe>

            But using the microdata format as per schema.org the same code can be written as :

            Video: SEO xxxxxxxxxx

            <iframe src="”http://www.youtube.com/embed/xxxxxxxxxxxxk”" frameborder="”0″" width="”640″" height="”390″"></iframe>

            Description, keywords and markup here .

            More information here: http://schema.org/VideoObject

              That may have worked with YouTube's old embedded code, but not with the iFrame one.

              Will give the video sitemap a go.

                Yes, Google gives us a great description.

                http://support.google.com/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2413309

                Also, creating and submitting a video sitemap is beneficial.

                  JSON-LD schema markup for a category landing page

                  I'm working on some schema for a client and have a question regarding the use of schema for a high-level category page. This page is merely the main lander for Categories. For example: https://www.examples.com/pages/categories And all it does is list links to the three main categories (Men's, Women's, Kid's) - it's a clothing store. This is the code I have right now. In short, simply using type @Itemlist and an array that uses @ListItem. Structured Data Testing Tool returns no errors with it, but my main question is this: Is this the _correct _way to do a page like this, or are there better options? Thanks.

                  How does educational organization schema interact with Google's knowledge graph?

                  Hi there! I was just wondering if the granular options of the Organization schema, like Educational Organization (http://schema.org/EducationalOrganization) and CollegeOrUniversity (http://schema.org/CollegeOrUniversity) schema work the same when it comes to pulling data into the knowledge graph. I've typically always used the Organization schema for customers but was wondering if there are any drawbacks for going deep into the hierarchy of schema. Cheers 😄

                  How can I make sure Google is crawling a link from an iframe (video)?

                  Do they crawl backlinks from an iframe example from a Youtube video embedded in a blog post? TIA!

                  HTTPS moz.org untrusted - invalid cert

                  https://www.a-moz.groupbuyseo.org/  has an invalid cert guys This Connection is Untrusted You have asked Firefox to connect
                  securely to www.a-moz.groupbuyseo.org, but we can't confirm that your connection is secure.
                            Normally, when you try to connect securely,
                  sites will present trusted identification to prove that you are
                  going to the right place. However, this site's identity can't be verified. What Should I Do? If you usually connect to
                  this site without problems, this error could mean that someone is
                  trying to impersonate the site, and you shouldn't continue. www.a-moz.groupbuyseo.org uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is only valid for a-moz.groupbuyseo.org (Error code: ssl_error_bad_cert_domain) If you understand what's going on, you
                  can tell Firefox to start trusting this site's identification.
                  Even if you trust the site, this error could mean that someone is
                  tampering with your connection.
                            Don't add an exception unless
                  you know there's a good reason why this site doesn't use trusted identification.

                  Add Videos Above or Below the Fold?

                  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?
