      Hi All,

      We have implemented Schema.org for our products and currently if you put the url in google, the results showing up are not the meta description but some of the schema.org content along with some other rubbish at the bottom .

      Do you know if we are doing this wrong  as in GWT it all looks okay and says it fine?

      You can get the url from here -http://goo.gl/aSFPqP

      Any assistance, greatly appreciated.

      thanks

      peter

        Hi Peter,

        If I search for "Best at hire" or "bestathire", both come back in Google absolutely fine. Can you post a screenshot of what you see?

          Hi Andy,

          Here's the image - http://imgur.com/Y6uiKln

          The problem is actually with what is being displayed on my product page in google. You can see from the image that whilst google has included some of the information from schema.org, it doesn't show the prices and also have added what looks like rubbish at the bottom of it.

          Many thanks

          Peter

            I see what you mean - it is a bit messy. It appears to be using the ALT tag for the logo as the first part of the description?!

            It's something I would need to spend time on to try and get to the bottom of I'm afriad - however, you might find someone else with more schema experience can diagnose in a second. You may have to wait to see if someone else chips in a little later.

                Sometimes google will change the description and title depending on the search term. I believe this is what is happening. You searched for the URL and it changed the meta description.

                here's a screenshot of your page when I searched site:bestathire.co.uk 1648

                http://imgur.com/kmfPcTC

                As you can see, your meta description is appearing correctly. Google's Structured Testing tool is also showing the schema

                https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/richsnippets?q=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.bestathire.co.uk%2Fproducts%2Fview%2F1648%2FCarpet_Cleaner_Domestic

                What I also spotted on Google is duplicate content indexed in Google

                • http://www.bestathire.co.uk/thanks/1648/8845/DIY_tools_equipment/Cleaning_equipment/Carpet_cleaners

                Hope that helps. You can also tag your page using Google Webmaster tools >>Search Appearance>>Data Highlighter.

                Hope that helps

                  Many thanks Cyto.

                  And thanks for finding the duplicate content page as well. I never knew it existed so that's another thing i need to investigate.

                  Many thanks

                  Peter

                    No problem, Moz can highlight duplicate content for you. Run a crawl diagnostic and review the report.
