♥bruyndoncx Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 what is the best way to implement google rich snippets in oscommerce ? http://support.google.com/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=99170 i've found the good relations add -n for oscommerce 2.2RCA but it is fairly old and not updated to v2.3.1 since the summer of 2009. is good relations really the way forward, or are there alternatives to consider ? KEEP CALM AND CARRY ON I do not use the responsive bootstrap version since i coded my responsive version earlier, but i have bought every 28d of code package to support burts effort and keep this forum alive (albeit more like on life support).

WebDev22 Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 I'd like to find out as well. Carina, have you learned anything since your post? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack_mcs Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 Google is just saying to use html to spruce up the meta description tags of your pages. You need to have a meta tags contribution installed that will allow you to edit the meta description tag. Header Tags SEO will do this but some of the others may as well.

♥bruyndoncx Posted January 11, 2012 Author Share Posted January 11, 2012 If you look at this page http://support.google.com/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=146750 it basically explains a whole lot of tags that are recommended by google to explain your offer(just a single product) also there are warnings on the page that you should checkout schema.org for more detailed item types that microsoft and yahoo also support this is way beyond meta tags as far as I can tell, it is really always in the body content KEEP CALM AND CARRY ON I do not use the responsive bootstrap version since i coded my responsive version earlier, but i have bought every 28d of code package to support burts effort and keep this forum alive (albeit more like on life support).

Jack_mcs Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 Yes, you are correct. The example shown on the page the OP posted is of a product description, which google has always taken from the meta desciption, if it was present, so I assumed the markup code was for that tag. But it turns out, on closer examination, they are talking about adding the markup to the text on the page, like the product description. My apologies to the OP for the mistake. And here I've gone all year without making one yet. :/ Support Links: For Hire: Contact me for anything you need help with for your shop: upgrading, hosting, repairs, code written, etc. Get the latest versions of my addons Recommended SEO Addons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

♥bruyndoncx Posted January 11, 2012 Author Share Posted January 11, 2012 Thank you, that's a real help. Is this pages snippets available in google ? I read somewhere you'd have to ask for inclusion of the snippets KEEP CALM AND CARRY ON I do not use the responsive bootstrap version since i coded my responsive version earlier, but i have bought every 28d of code package to support burts effort and keep this forum alive (albeit more like on life support).

Web-Source 5 Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 Somewhere within google webmaster tools, under their rich snippets information pages they do have a place you can submit your site. It's been a while since I've been there, but that still does not guarantee they will use the markup in search results. I've been using these for over a year now, and have noticed the markup in results for category listings, and that was using their rich snippet format, I recently changed the markup to reflect what is outlined @ schema.org, and have not yet had to to see the end result in the SE's. I do expect the markup to one day be much more useful than just SE results however. I feel it is only a matter of time before Google Product search, and other product comparison engines start to use it. This thought is totally experimental, I have yet to try it, but shall very soon -- I believe if you do away with the meta description, then the SE's will pick up better on the micro-data as they will have nothing else between their search results and the true page content.

Peper Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Google and Bing can definitely use the extra information. If you think about it, every pc with windows comes with internet explorer - Bing in other words Do not just use Google for seo and forget about Bing The microdata add on that were uploaded years ago is way bit tricky to install on a modified version of osc I think every shop owner should move towards microdata. Google and Bing can use the extra information if implemented and will be a definite advantage. If I could, I would have made a new add on which is easier to implement the data (developers please help writing a new) Getting the Phoenix off the ground Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
