          Hello,

          I have been publishing a good number of blogs on my site Flooring Flow. Though, there's been an error of the video viewport on some of my articles.

          I have tried fixing it but the error is still showing in Google Search Console.

          Can anyone help me fix it out?

                Viewport Configuration: The viewport meta tag is essential for responsive web design, as it tells the browser how to adjust the page's dimensions Ehsaas program and scale to fit different screen sizes. If the viewport is not configured correctly for video elements, search engines may have difficulty indexing and displaying videos properly.

                Lazy Loading: Lazy loading is a technique used to improve page load times by deferring the loading of non-essential content, such as images and videos, until the user scrolls to that section of the page. If lazy loading is not correctly implemented for videos, it can lead to indexing issues.

                Missing Video Sitemaps: Sitemaps are files that provide information about the content on your website to search engines. If you have videos on your site, it's essential to have a video sitemap that provides details about the videos, such as their titles, descriptions, and URLs. This helps search engines index your videos more effectively.

                Accessibility Issues: Video content should be accessible to all users, including those with disabilities. If your videos lack proper captions, transcripts, or other accessibility features, it may lead to indexing issues.

                  If your site pages are experiencing a "video index viewport issue," it likely refers to problems related to how videos are indexed and displayed within the viewport on your website. The viewport is the visible area of a web page that a user can see without scrolling. Without further information, it's challenging to pinpoint the exact issue, but here are some common reasons and potential solutions for video index viewport problems:

                  Responsive Design: Ensure that your website has a responsive design, meaning it adapts and displays correctly on various screen sizes and devices. If the video container's size isn't adjusting properly to different viewports, the video may be cut off or not visible entirely.

                  Viewport Meta Tag: Make sure your web pages include the viewport meta tag in the <head> section. This tag helps the browser to correctly scale and render the content to fit different screen sizes.

                  Example viewport meta tag: <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
                  Video Element Attributes: Check the HTML attributes of the video element. Setting the width and height attributes can help the browser allocate the correct space for the video player.

                  Example video element:<video width="640" height="360" controls>
                  <source src="video.mp4" type="video/mp4">
                  Your browser does not support the video tag.
                  </video>
                  CSS Issues: Review your CSS styles to ensure that they don't interfere with the video's display. Sometimes, conflicting styles or positioning can lead to improper video rendering.

                  Lazy Loading: If you are using lazy loading for videos, verify that it's implemented correctly. Lazy loading delays the loading of the video until it's about to come into the user's viewport, which might affect how it's indexed and displayed.

                  JavaScript Conflicts: Check if any JavaScript on your site is causing conflicts with video players or the viewport settings.

                  Browser Compatibility: Test your site on various browsers to ensure that the issue isn't browser-specific.

                  Video Format: Ensure that your videos are in a format supported by major browsers, such as MP4 with H.264 video codec and AAC audio codec.

                  Server Configuration: In some cases, server misconfigurations may lead to video loading issues. Ensure that your server is correctly configured to serve videos.

                  Testing and Debugging: Use browser developer tools to inspect the video element and check for any errors or warnings related to the video player or viewport.

                      @mitty27 Your iFrame at the top of the page is hard set to 1200px width which could cause problems. Please provide some specific URLs that GSC has identified with the viewport issue for specific answers to those. Thanks and good luck!

                          Hello! I've been having a hard time finding an answer to this specific question so I figured I'd drop it here. I always add custom LocalBusiness markup to clients' homepages, but sometimes the client's website provider will include their own automated LocalBusiness markup. The codes I create often include more information. Assuming the website provider is unwilling to remove their markup, is it a bad idea to include my code as well? It seems like it could potentially be read as spammy by Google. Do the pros of having more detailed markup outweigh that potential negative impact?

                          Solved How to solve orphan pages on a job board

                          technical seo

                          Working on a website that has a job board, and over 4000 active job ads. All of these ads are listed on a single "job board" page, and don’t obviously all load at the same time. They are not linked to from anywhere else, so all tools are listing all of these job ad pages as orphans. How much of a red flag are these orphan pages? Do sites like Indeed have this same issue? Their job ads are completely dynamic, how are these pages then indexed? We use Google’s Search API to handle any expired jobs, so they are not the issue. It’s the active, but orphaned pages we are looking to solve. The site is hosted on WordPress. What is the best way to solve this issue? Just create a job category page and link to each individual job ad from there? Any simpler and perhaps more obvious solutions? What does the website structure need to be like for the problem to be solved? Would appreciate any advice you can share!
