          Hello, can we have the FAQ code on the homepage (staff time)?

          we have written some questions and answers in the drop-down list on the homepage,

          and also add the schema code script to one tag of the page,

          but it does not work!

            Yes, If you have a portion of FAQ's on homepage you can add faq schema to it. It will help in rich snippet.

              Yes you could absolutely. However I think you mark up is excellent for a lot of things it’s not known for driving traffic. Just so your aware google tells us ”

              • Don’t use FAQPage for advertising purposes.”

              I doubt your homepage would count but you never now in addition FAQ content turns to get clicked on very seldomly.

              Because the answers to the questions are found in the SERPS people do not have to leave Google to find the answers

              I know taking up more googles real estate sounds good like a featured snippet but not if your customer only cares about the answers & Google is already providing them. Which FAQ does extremely well.

              below I tested your page tested as well as a mock up of inappropriately marked up page hopefully this will be of help

              also below are what Google considers valid and invalid reasons for FAQ schema

              look at the top of the page for errors some of your fonts aren’t loading

              https://search.google.com/test/rich-results?id=0jC1yqgkMNkla7J3F6fEVQ

              here’s an example of what it might look like with the correct FAQ markup

              https://search.google.com/test/rich-results?id=zV3BwNJPTbbEsXOj3e3Asg

              See:

              One of my favorite tools for generating structured data in JSON-LD  FAQ is built-in.

              https://www.rankranger.com/schema-markup-generator

              https://developers.google.com/search/docs/guides/search-gallery

              test using

              https://search.google.com/test/rich-results

               

              • Valid use cases:

                • An FAQ page written by the site itself, with no way for users to submit alternative answers
                • A product support page that lists FAQs, with no way for users to submit alternative answers

                Invalid use cases:

                • A forum page where users can submit answers to a single question
                • A product support page where users can submit answers to a single question
                • A product page where users can submit multiple questions and answers on a single page
              • Don’t use FAQPage for advertising purposes.

              • Make sure each Question includes the entire text of the question and make sure each Answer includes the entire text of the answer. The entire question text and answer text may be displayed.

              • Question and answer content may not be displayed as a rich result if it contains any of the following types of content: obscene, profane, sexually explicit, graphically violent, promotion of dangerous or illegal activities, or hateful or harassing language.

              • All FAQ content must be visible to the user on the source page.

              hope this helps,

              Tom

                Could I set a Cruise as an Event in Schema mark up?

                Hi there, We are now in the process of implementing a JSON-LD mark-up solution and are building cruises as an event.  Will this work and can we get away with this without penalty? Previously they have been marking their cruises as events using the data highlighter and this has displayed correctly in the SERP. The ideal schema would be Trip but this is not supported by Google Rich Results yet, hopefully they will support this in the future. Another alternative would be product but this does not display rich-results as we would like. Event has the best result in terms of how the information is displayed. For example someone might search "Cruises to Spain" and the landing page would display the next 3 cruises that go to Spain, with dates & prices. The event location would be the cruise terminal, the offer would be the starting price and the start & end date would be the cruise duration, these are fixed dates. I am interested to hear the communities opinion and experience with this problem.

                Can Google Bot View Links on a Wix Page?

                Hi, The way Wix is configured you can't see any of the on-page links within the source code. Does anyone know if Google Bots still count the links on this page? Here is the page in question: https://www.ncresourcecenter.org/business-directory If you do think Google counts these links, can you please send me URL fetcher to prove that the links are crawlable? Thank you SO much for your help.

                What can we do to optimize / be mobile-friendly for PDFs?

                I'm getting a "Your page is not mobile-friendly." notice in the SERPs for all of our PDFs.  I check the pdf on the phone and it appears just fine. rFtLq

                Should I use https schema markup after http-https migration?

                Dear Moz community, Noticed that several groups of websites after HTTP -> HTTPS migration update their schema markup from, example : {
                "@context": "http://schema.org",
                "@type": "WebSite",
                "name": "Your WebSite Name",
                "alternateName": "An alternative name for your WebSite",
                "url": "http://www.your-site.com"
                } becomes {
                "@context": "https://schema.org",
                "@type": "WebSite",
                "name": "Your WebSite Name",
                "alternateName": "An alternative name for your WebSite",
                "url": "https://www.example.com"
                } Interesting to know, because Moz website is on https protocol but uses http version of markup. Looking forward for answers 🙂

                Can too many NoFollow links damage your Google rankings?

                I've been trying to recover from a Google algorithm change since Sep 2012, so far without success. I'm now wondering if the nofollow on external links in my blog posts are actually doing me damage. http://www.smartdatinguk.com/blog/ Does anyone have any experience of this?

                Keyword Phrases - Can You Break Them Up?

                Can you break up a search query across a sentence and have Google still recognize which query you are targeting? Let's say I'm trying to rank a page for the phrase "best haircuts calgary". Is Google's algorithm advanced enough to look at page title "Best Haircuts - Where To Get Them In Calgary" and know it's targeting the query "best haircuts calgary"? If it can't do this right now, I could see it advancing to this at some point in the future, which would then change the game quite a bit in terms of how creative you can get creating pages for queries.
