Schema markup for Webinars
-
I'm looking for a solution to implement schema markup for our webinars. We have an events page that has a list of upcoming events, as well as a list of the webinars we've done with a link to YouTube to watch the webinar. The webinars on our events page have the title and date. What kind of schema markup can we implement for these past events? It is not really an event, but it's not a video either (unless we embed the video on our site). Any tips? (**Also, I would like to use JSON-LD instead of HTML to implement the schema). Thanks!

The event does not have all required information in the eyes of Google. Will that harm the site?
If a lot is missing YES you need dates.

Thank you! This helps a lot.
Follow-up question... The event does not have all required information in the eyes of Google. Will that harm the site? Or is it ok if we don't have every parameter... See screenshot for example of the info that I can markup: http://screencast.com/t/KPkUvHvmZaf

Utilizing past events will be will be able to instruct Google that you are having a consistent event cycle whatever length of time that is. So I do recommend doing it. JSON-LD has been, recommended for events.
In the past, Google has suggested Microdata. For websites and JSON-LD for apps however since their overhaul the new schema testing system, it seems like they have gone 100% JSON-LD in their recent "recommendations" for events.
("Try out the following examples using the Structured Data Testing Tool. All examples show JSON-LD syntax. If you prefer, you can use Microdata or RDFa syntax.")
JSON-LD His extremely lightweight but is invisible to the end-user. Microdata Is visible to the end-user.I would base it on what makes sense for your website. I do not know if you are utilizing app?If you are currently using microdata, it is still supported. If you are looking to use schema for the first time, I would recommend JSON-LD for apps and Microdata for end-users.

https://blog.kissmetrics.com/get-started-using-schema/ I would use Google's schema generator for JSON-LD or one of these options for microdata

Below are two examples of the different styles and keep in mind microdata is visible
Microdata. event example I created.

Adding Reviews to JSON Product Schema Markup
Hi everyone, Below is an example of some JSON product schema markup I'd like to integrate into my site. My question is, what do I need to do to incorporate the individual reviews on a product page as well? I've tried a few different things but I can't get it to validate.

Breadcrumb Trail Markup
I've implemented breadcrumb trail markup on my site and I wanted to check that it's implemented correctly. Is it true that the breadcrumb does not link to the current page as this would be redundant, so it only links to 'ancestor' pages? (You can see for example on this page that the breadcrumb links to two levels below the home page): http://www.cobaltrecruitment.com/sectors/construction-property-engineering/real-estate-general-practice So basically breadcrumb trail should have a simple link for each level (except for the current page). Thanks,

Author schema and Wordpress Author Page
Hi everyone, Has anyone tried using the author schema on their Wordpress author page or on their G+ profile or on their Moz profile? Would it be a good idea to always use it where you publish? I publish on several blogs Thanks Carla example: Use it here - http://www.posicionamientowebenbuscadores.com/blog/author/carla/ http://moz.com/community/users/392216 It seems like I would be over doing it.

Could schema.org and GoodRelations be bad for SEO?
One of my clients is going through a redesign and I am considering implementing schema.org and GoodRelations as it is an e-commerce website. The site sells cutting edge products and competes with some of the top tech blogs for rankings on the first page. Essentially, this means that e-commerce product listings are competing with news stories. It is becoming more and more difficult to rank as Google puts more emphasis on news over products in the serps, especially prior to a product release. My concern is that in implementing schema.org and GoodRelations, detailing to seach engines that this is in-fact a product page and not news could harm rankings. What opinions do others have on this?
