Product Structured Data Documentation Updated by Google

 Google added requirements that will qualify a site to display product return policies in the merchant listing experiences to the developers guide for the product structured data.

Customer Listing Experiments

The change is applicable to a collection of rich results known as the merchant listing experiences that are only available to merchants.

Experiences with merchant listings include:

1.Knowledge panel for shopping

2.Popular Items

According to Google's Merchant Listing developer page, it is as follows:

The Shopping Knowledge panel, Popular Products, as well as shopping experiences in Google Images and Google Lens, are all enhanced by merchant listing experiences.

Our Product structured data manual details the structured data needed for merchant listings and product snippets.

Structured Data Type: Merchant Return Policy

A structured data type informs search engines that the data pertains to a particular data type, in this case, the return policy of a particular retailer.

The "properties" of structured data types reveal information about the data type.

The Schema.org MerchantReturnPolicy structured data type now has support from Google.

Properties like return costs and the number of days a product can be returned are included in the MerchantReturnPolicy structured data type.

Two Essential Qualities

There are two prerequisite properties for the new MerchantReturnPolicy type.

In order to assure eligibility for the rich results relevant to MerchantReturnPolicy, required characteristics are not optional and must be present in the structured data.

The two essential qualities for structured data are as follows:

1.relevant nation

2.policy of returns Category

A country code serves as the value for the first property.

The values for the second one, returnPolicyCategory, are explained by Google as follows:

suggested qualities

Although they are optional, recommended attributes should be used when suitable in order to qualify for any associated rich results.

There are four categories of advised properties:

1.business Return Days

2.Refund Charges

3.return Formula

4.Refund Shipping Charges

A Supplement to Structured Data to Qualify for Rich Results

There is another option to qualify for the returns policy shopping experience, according to Google's new section on eligibility, without configuring the related structured data.

In the Google Merchant Centre Help, they advise adjusting the delivery options and return policies (information on how to configure it are available here).

According to Google's documentation,

"Retailer shipping rules may be complex and subject to frequent change. If you have a Google Merchant Centre account and are having problems indicating and maintaining your shipping and return details with markup, you might want to think about defining your shipping parameters and return policies there.

When retailers use both the Merchant Centre and structured data for the returns policy, Google will favour the settings in the Google Merchant Centre, just like it does with the other types of product structured data pertaining to retailer products.

4 Attribution Models For Advertisers Are Being Removed By Google.

 

Starting in May 2023, Google Ads and Analytics' attribution modelling will undergo significant modifications.

The Change's Determination

Ginny Marvin, a dedicated Google Ads liaison, explained the abrupt attribution offering change in a series of tweets.

More on why & timing:

— AdsLiaison (@adsliaison) April 6, 2023

 Google claims that the data-driven attribution strategy is the one that is most frequently utilised for automated bidding conversions.

Additionally, less than 3% of Google web conversions are made up of the four obsolete models combined. According to them, eliminating less often used attribution models is a technique to streamline measurement.

1.Marketers Respond to the News

Advertisers on social media had a range of reactions to the surprise announcement.

Some individuals told Marvin that the modification made sense.

Why:
Use of rules-based attribution models has dropped significantly with the introduction of DDA 3 years ago.
Fewer than 3% of conversion actions in Google Ads use them now. DDA has the broadest adoption & is available to all businesses, with no data requirements.

— AdsLiaison (@adsliaison) April 6, 2023

Others expressed their anger with the news on Twitter. According to David Kyle, the elimination of attribution models eliminates crucial and priceless data for marketers that aid in the making of more educated decisions:

 

 

Today we announced we’ll be deprecating non-last-click rules-based attribution models, which includes first-click, linear, positioned based & time decay, in Google Ads & GA4.

Data-driven attribution (DDA) is recommended & last-click will remain available.

More on why & timing:

— AdsLiaison (@adsliaison) April 6, 2023

 Advertisers have expressed caution in other online discussions about switching completely to a data-driven attribution methodology where it could be more appropriate to give Google Ads campaigns more credit for a conversion than other channels. More marketing funds could be allocated to Google Ads if it becomes more difficult to gauge or defend the effectiveness of other paid media channels.

What Advertisers Must Understand

Users of any of the four attribution models that are being sunsetted should be prepared to take action right away.

Sunset Date for Google's Attribution Models

1.Time decay, linear, initial click, and position-based models won't be available for any new conversion actions for Google Analytics 4 properties starting in May 2023.

2.Time decay, linear, initial click, and position-based models won't be accessible for any new conversion actions for Google Ads accounts starting in June 2023.

3.Google will discontinue the four attribution methods in Google Ads and Google Analytics 4 in September 2023.

Both the Overview page in Google Ads and the Model Comparison Report in the Attribution tab will no longer contain the models once they have been sunset.

What occurs afterwards to conversion actions that are currently utilising these models?

According to Google, every conversion action made using the nearly out-of-date models will switch over immediately to the data-driven attribution model.

Advertisers have the option of selecting the current "last click" attribution model, but they will need to manually adjust it for each conversion action.

Start (or continue) the internal discussion on attribution

Every marketer should have the dialogue about measuring conversions.

Prior to switching, it is essential to comprehend how the change in attribution models impacts campaign performance.

This is particularly true for efforts at the top of the funnel, when a first-click strategy was probably suitable.

Start by identifying core measurement changes that can assist in driving any strategy shifts using the Model Comparison tool.

Marketing professionals can better explain the change to clients or internal departments by staying ahead of the deadline.

The Importance of Web Design in SEO: How to Design a Search-Friendly Website

 

When it comes to SEO, web design plays a crucial role in determining how well your website ranks on search engine results pages (SERPs). A well-designed website can help improve your website's usability, user experience, and overall search engine visibility. Here are some key web design elements to consider for SEO:

1.Responsive Design

With mobile devices accounting for more than half of all internet traffic, having a responsive website design is essential for SEO. Google also favors responsive designs in its search algorithms, so having a responsive website can help improve your search engine rankings.

2.Site Speed

Site speed is another critical factor in SEO, as Google has stated that it considers page speed in its search algorithms. Slow-loading websites can lead to higher bounce rates and lower user engagement, which can hurt your website's search engine rankings. Optimizing your website's images, reducing the number of HTTP requests, and using a content delivery network (CDN) are all effective ways to improve your website's speed.

3.Navigation

A clear and easy-to-use navigation menu is essential for both user experience and SEO. A well-designed navigation menu should help users find the content they're looking for quickly and easily, while also providing clear and relevant links to your website's pages. Including a sitemap can also help search engines crawl your website more effectively.

4.Content Layout

The way your website's content is laid out can also impact its search engine visibility. A well-organized content layout with clear headings, subheadings, and paragraphs can make it easier for users and search engines to understand your website's content. Including relevant keywords in your headings and subheadings can also help improve your website's relevance to specific search queries.

In conclusion, a well-designed website is essential for SEO success. By focusing on responsive design, site speed, navigation, and content layout, you can improve your website's usability, user experience, and search engine visibility.

Highlights: Rahul Gandhi Returns to Delhi Following Court Conviction

 Live news about Rahul Gandhi: Purnesh Modi, a former Gujarat minister and member of the BJP, brought the lawsuit against Mr. Gandhi after he remarked, "How come all thieves have the same last name Modi?"

In a 2019 criminal defamation lawsuit involving his comments on Prime Minister Narendra Modi's last name, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi was found guilty and given a two-year prison term by a court in Surat, Gujarat. To allow him to appeal the ruling, he was given bail and his sentence was suspended for 30 days.

Purnesh Modi, a former Gujarat minister and member of the BJP, brought the lawsuit against Mr. Gandhi after he remarked, "How come all thieves have the same last name Modi?"

The following are the key points of Rahul Gandhi's conviction:

Tejashwi Yadav on Rahul Gandhi's Conviction: "Time To Fight Not Fright" Tejashwi Yadav, the deputy chief minister of Bihar, stated today that the action against Congressman Rahul Gandhi is a reason to "fight, not fright," and that all parties opposing to the BJP's rule at the Center must unite "without delay." The RJD leader was responding to Gandhi's conviction in a defamation case by a Gujarat court, whose party had supported the Congress for 20 years. He declared, "Yeh darne ka nahin, ladne ka waqt hai (It's time to fight, not be afraid)"

Meeting Called by Congress Chief Regarding Rahul Gandhi's Conviction Mallikarjun Kharge, the president of the Congress, called a meeting of the party's top officials today at his home to discuss the issue resulting from Rahul Gandhi being found guilty and given a two-year sentence in a defamation case by a Surat court. In the evening, senior Congress figures—including party lawmakers—met at Mr. Kharge's house to discuss the political repercussions of Mr. Gandhi's conviction.

Tamil Nadu protests against Congress Rahul Gandhi's Conviction is Opposed While party legislators staged a "black band" protest in front of the State Assembly here today to protest the sentencing of party leader Rahul Gandhi in a defamation case, the Congress organised rail rokos in the Tamil Nadu cities of Kumbakonam and Virudhachalam. M K Stalin, the chief minister of Tamil Nadu, claimed he spoke with "brother" Rahul Gandhi and expressed his support. He charged that the BJP had violated democratic rights.

The government wants Rahul Gandhi expelled from the Lok Sabha. Rahul Gandhi is accused by Congress Chief Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge of trying to disqualify him from the Lok Sabha because he speaks the truth and exposes the BJP-led government. In a defamation lawsuit brought by BJP MLA Purnesh Modi, a court in Surat condemned Gandhi to two years in prison for his alleged comment, "How come all the thieves have Modi as the common surname?"

The reactions of leaders of Congress make it clear that they don't respect the institutions of the country. This is quite evident that they have scant respect for the institutions and they are repeatedly showing it: Parliamentary Affairs Minister Pralhad Joshi on Surat Court's… pic.twitter.com/7ABnbYDvBO

Rahul Gandhi's Conviction: "PM Modi Also Commented On Nehru Surname" by AAP MLA

AAP leader and Delhi minister Saurabh Bhardwaj blasted the government over Rahul Gandhi's conviction in a defamation case, claiming that while the Congressman's remark using the surname "Modi" was incorrect, it was unfair to single him out because Prime Minister Narendra Modi had also made a remark about the Nehru surname. In a criminal defamation case brought against him for his claimed remark using the Modi surname at a campaign event in Karnataka for the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, the Surat district court earlier today sentenced Rahul Gandhi to two years in prison.

Congressmen from Maharashtra demonstrate against Rahul Gandhi's conviction.

Leaders of the Maharashtra Congress protested today in front of the party's office in Mumbai over Rahul Gandhi's conviction in a defamation lawsuit stemming from his remark about the "Modi surname." The protest was organised by former chief ministers Prithviraj Chavan and Ashok Chavan, Maharashtra Congress president Nana Patole, the head of the party's Mumbai chapter, Bhai Jagtap, and other officials and party members.

 

How to Compose a Blog and What Is Blog Writing

Weblog, which early internet users first used as a journal-like release, is now more frequently referred to as blogging. Blogging encompasses writing, photos, and other types of self-published online content. The purpose of blogging was initially to provide a place for people to maintain journals in the form of entries, but it has since been adopted by many companies for their websites. Blogging is characterised by regular updates, informal language, and opportunities for reader interaction and discussion.

What Is a Blog?

Weblog, the original name of the concept, is essentially shortened to "blog." The events of their day may be "recorded" by early internet users in diary-style entries on these weblogs. Because blogs frequently enable visitors to leave comments, communities grew up around them as they gained popularity.

Like most internet-based innovations, many company owners saw the marketing potential of having a blog, and the business community's adoption of blogging served to further increase the platform's popularity. A blog can be used for marketing as well as serving as a stand-alone home-based company.

How Blogs Operate

Blogging is the process of creating a website and posting unique content on it. Tech-savvy bloggers can purchase a domain name and build their own website. Users with little to no experience using HTML are still able to register for an account on websites like WordPress, which streamline the process of online design and publishing.

Blogs are typically straightforward webpages. Similar to the news feed on social networking sites like Facebook, a blog usually consists of just one page that can be scrolled through. A separate page with contact information or a bio may be present, and older things may be preserved in various locations throughout the website. Like a Facebook news feed, a blog displays the most current content at the top of the page.

Another distinguishing feature of writing is interlinking. This occurs when a blogger links to another blogger's blog in an article on their own blog. For instance, if a music teacher has a blog and posts about how to make a chord, they might link to a musician's blog to show how the chords are used visually. A political blogger may then state their agreement or disagreement with a specific article on another political blog by linking to it. The comment section and interlinking help to foster the feeling of community that makes blogs unique.

Writing a Blog: A Guide

A blog can be easily set up or integrated into your website for a low cost. Merely follow these four guidelines to be successful.

1. Start a blog.

Despite the availability of free blogging platforms like WordPress and Blogger, purchasing a domain name and hosting services can help you keep control and present a credible front. Installing WordPress or another content management system on your server is an option if you don't want to create the complete website from scratch.

2. Upload Material

When your blog is up and running, you must keep it active by posting new content if you want to grow your company. Establish a consistent schedule for writing and posting blog entries. Make a content calendar so you always know what you're going to publish.

3.Market

Your success depends on marketing and getting your message in front of your target market, just like any other business idea. Reaching out to other bloggers, podcasters, and media outlets for PR as well as using social networking tools and email lists are all effective ways to connect with your target audience. Repurpose your blog posts to advertise your business across platforms, such as by posting quotes to your Twitter or Instagram accounts or creating a YouTube movie of your article.

4. Revenue Sources

A blog can help an established business, but it's also a great way to add new revenue sources to your home-based business. You can promote the products and services of other companies through affiliate marketing. You can sell on your website or include ads from ad networks like AdSense. To support any service-based businesses you're promoting on your site, you can create your own information products. As an alternative, you could offer a service if you make your own goods.
