      Hello,

      I've been having some markup issues and need some help.

      I researched what would be the best Business type and used that markup on the website.

      But when I check it in the testing tool I get this http://screencast.com/t/vtlfn2MNPKf

      It doesn't recognize the object type. Could this be an error with my website or the markup its self?

      Please advise

      Thanks

          This is the correct code and will validate if you copy and paste it into the structured data testing tool -

          The postaladdress schema wasn't declared properly so wasn't being read and you needed to close this set of postaladdress schema with a prior to opening hours which are part of the HomeAndConstructionBusiness schema.

          Hope this helps 😄

              Hey, thanks so much for the fix.

              When you say it wasn't declared properly what exactly was the problem if you don't mind.

              Also I would really appreciate it if you take a look at fivestarstoneinc.com.

              I'm having twice as much problems with structured data and wondering if its the same issue.

              Thanks

                  Hi Ravi,

                  Only certain product pages will show rich snippets, so the ones you are looking at may not show but others most likely will as your product markup is coming back as valid in structured data testing tool. I have seen it mentioned that Google only stores a certain amount of data needed for rich snippets on a websites products pages - somewhere estimated to be between 10-50%.

                  Hope this helps!

                    Hi Vlad,

                    What I meant was you needed to declare it like this

                    and not the way you did it . The best tip I could give you is make sure you encase each type of schema inas this allows you to easily nest the different types of schema on a page. I can see that this is the case with your other site after having a quick glance.

                    Hope this helps
