Google+ business pages and Schema.org

[JojoSeaman]

Hi All,

I'm an SEO for a company that runs a number of brands. I'm in the process of setting up the Google+ pages for these brands and decided to watch the Microformats & Schema.org - Real life Use Cases - Mozinar by Richard Baxter and the Online Reputation Management: Branding for SERP Domination Mozinar by Rhea Drysdale to help understand the best way to achieve this.

One of the suggestions by Richard Baxter was to include the authorship schema.org, but I can't see how this can be done for an organisation instead of an individual.

My question is, how do you manage authorship when your not able to link websites to Google+ business pages, only profiles?

How have you managed this on SEOMoz for example?

Hope you can help.

Thanks

Jojo

Hi,

http://support.google.com/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=1708844

Has information about rel=publisher (for brands and pages) - which is the counter to rel=author (profiles)

I think this is what you were asking

Hope it helps

Ah... I see! Thank you Shane.

That makes sense, I thought I might have missed something.

Thanks
