World-class Advice for Schema.org and Data Marketing

The use of structured data on the Web to communicate your message to the digital devices and services employed by your target audiences is an entirely new channel for online marketing, and with the thrust of all major search engines behind it, this revolution will come at high speed. But it isn't just about asking your developers to add a bit of schema.org markup in RDFa or HTML5 microdata syntax to trigger rich snippets in Google. Instead, it redefines the ecosystem and technical architecture of online marketing as a whole.

Our CEO invented the e-commerce core of schema.org and shaped the field. Based on over a decade of research, we will be pleased help you develop end-to-end strategies for optimizing the visibility of your products and services in this next generation of the Web.

Here are some examples of what we can do for you.

Strategy

Adopting structured data as part of your online marketing should be based on a solid, sustainable strategy. This should address questions like the following.

  • Which information do you want to expose to search engines and mobile clients?
  • Which information do you want to keep for visitors of your pages?
  • If your information changes frequently, how can you make sure search engines show current data?
  • How does structured data affect your revenue models? If you are selling content, you need other approaches than someone selling products.
  • How can you include your sales and distribution channels?
  • How can you protect your intellectual property in this environment?

Implementing Schema.org and GoodRelations for Large Retail Sites

If you are a major e-commerce company, or the market leader in a niche, with tens of thousands of items in your database, you need hand-crafted markup recipes embedded in an end-to-end strategy so that search engines can make most of your site.

Campaigning and Landing Pages

Leading edge data marketing allows for incredibly more granular campaigning and customized landing pages, but this requires very advanced data structures, processes, and analytics. We will tell you the pitfalls and best practices.

Data Supply

A successful data marketing strategy requires that your Web servers have fast and comprehensive access to data that is currently residing in back-end systems. We will help you identify the types of information that need to be available to your Web servers and suggest data quality management methods that ensure that such data, being suddenly exposed to the World Wide Web, does not put your reputation at risk.

  • How can we support unlimited markup flexibility, e.g. for users in specific vertical industries?
  • How can we make changing data accessible to crawlers?

Data Quality Management for E-Commerce Information
