MSemantic: Semantic SEO for Rich Snippets in Google and Yahoo

MSemantic: Rich Snippets and Semantic SEO with GoodRelations

Hot news: Please see our instructions for proper lastmod attributes in Google sitemaps in the overhauled installation instructions!

This free Magento extension adds rich data-markup to your shop pages so that search engines like Google, Yahoo, and Bing can display richer item previews in the search results ("Rich Snippets") with information about prices, availability, delivery options, images*, etc. This typically increases Click-Through-Rates (CTR) by up to 30 %.

At the same time, your shop will be more accessible for browser extensions and mobile applications.

For more information about GoodRelations and Semantic SEO, see http://purl.org/goodrelations/

Note: After installing the module, it can take between 2 - 8 weeks until Google will show Rich Snippets for your pages, depending on the general ranking of your site, and other factors.

Important 1: Please submit the URI of your sitemap (e.g. http://www.la-mousson.de/sitemap.xml) to the GoodRelations Notification Service at http://gr-notify.appspot.com. This will help search engines to find and update your products more easily.

Important 2: Please subscribe to our newsletter, where we announce new releases

Important 3: Please see this page for installation notes

Important 4: Please post bug reports, feature request and general usage questions to our Google Group (not in the reviews section)

*not right now, but very likely to be activated soon

By the way: Once you have added GoodRelations to your site, make sure that you regenerate your sitemap, because Google will only take notice of the additional markup if the lastmod attribute of the article detail page has been updated. Otherwise, it may take a long time for Google to show rich snippets for your page. For more information, see http://wiki.goodrelations-vocabulary.org/FFAQ#Why_is_Google_not_showing_rich_snippets_for_my_pages.3F Martin Hepp January 31, 2012
Not sure Google accepts this anymore. We added this module, told google that we were using it and the GoodRelations markup and got the following decline today: Thank you for your interest in rich snippets for your website. Unfortunately, we can’t display rich snippets for your site foobar.com because of the following issue(s): 1. HIDDEN MARKUPS Your content is marked up for rich snippets. But all the values has been marked up under the content attribute. We allow the use of content attribute only when we need values in the machine readable format such as for currency. Please markup the actual content on the webpage. Here’s an example of the hidden content we found on your site: URL: http://www.foobar.com/union-jack-half-pint-mug.html Markup Type:shopping Hidden content: <div typeof="gr:Offering" about="#offering">....</div> January 24, 2012
Really great Extension, thank you very much! The only thing we had to fix is the stock info. In our shop we turned of the stock feature, the module then shows "out of stock". Used it in Magento Community Edition 1.5.1.0. January 19, 2012
The module seems to display all Configurable Products as "Out of Stock" when displaying in rich snippet mode. Can you recommend a solution for this? Thank you! January 13, 2012
I agree nice work... But i found also an error: If you have in your catalog only net prices, you don't have any chance to show price with vat included in the sniplets... "gr:hasCurrencyValue" => round($this->Product->getFinalPrice(1)*MULTIPLIEDWITHVAT, 2), // 1 unit January 7, 2012
First at all - Nice work. Just some observations. For the EAN code there should be a mechanism to link the field to an existing product attribute rather than maintaining it separate. Google product search already requires that on going forward it will probably be used somewhere else as well and should only be kept/maintained in one place. There also should be some flexibly about the stock status. If you have a life feed and a product goes out of stock and a few minutes later that page gets index the status will be out of stock and could be for quite a long time (worst case for ever) in the SERP's depending on the frequency the site/page get crawled. December 30, 2011
Works great on 1.6.1 as long as you take youderian advice into account when using custom themes. Cheers December 29, 2011
Thank you for writing this extension! Installation seemed to go smoothly on Magento 1.6.1, but I can't find any mark-up in the HTML. Also, when run through Google's Rendering tool for rich snippets, it says none is present. Apart from installing and enabling the extension, is there anything else I need to do? I HAVE made minor adjustments to the modern theme, but I'm not sure if this is a problem or not. Thank you! December 27, 2011
First of all thanks a lot for this extension... I Installed it easily via SSH on 1.5.1. Checked in google rich snippet test tool and It seems to work well on product pages with title, price & reviews, but the product image is not showing up. I tested on multiple products and image is not showing up on all of them in google rich snippet test tool. Also it doesnt generate any code for category pages, like breadcrumbs or anything, I dont know, is it supposed to be this way ? The little problem I have is related with configuration, I use 12 number UPC code on my store and this option is not given in "strong identifier type", can you tell me please which one should I use in this case? P.S. it will work even without submitting the sitemap.xml to the good relations website, right? December 19, 2011
Installs a charm on 1.4.1.1 but notice it doesn't seem to take notice of the currency change? hasCurrency value changes, but hasCurrencyValue stays at the default. Otherwise, works fine! December 7, 2011

Uninstall

Hello,

the extension didn't work together with BCP - Better configurable products, so I had to uninstall it again. I have uninstalled it with the Magento Connect Manager refreshed the cache and index, and also changed the template files back to the old version.

But I still have in the admin product view a tab named Semantic Web. How can I get rid of this?

Thanks.

Uninstalling

Any solution for the uninstall problem yet? Having the same problem.
Now when i try to install a different Rich Snippets extension (Template-Master) i can't get it to work since it's still conflicting with Msemantic. I also still have the tab "Semantic Web" when adding a product.

I have uninstalled it using Magento Connect, but it doesn't seem to uninstall the whole thing.

Please help.

Regards,

Nick

Hi there,

The add-on works great, love it!
When i activate the add-on and look in Google Structured Data Testing Tool. The results are promising.

I've have i think one small problem.
I;ve got products with custom options. When i active the this addon my custom attributes dissapear.
When i look in my (frontend/*theme*/default/template/catalog/product/) view.phtml

And change the following line
<?php if ($_product->isSaleable() && $this->hasOptions()): ?>
<?php if ($container1_html = $this->getChildChildHtml('container1', '', true, true)): ?>
<div class="container1-wrapper"><?php echo $container1_html; ?></div>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php endif;?>

into:
<?php if ($container1_html = $this->getChildChildHtml('container1', '', true, true)): ?>
<div class="container1-wrapper"><?php echo $container1_html; ?></div>
<?php endif; ?>

(removing 1st if statement).

then my custom attributes are showing. But now i'am seeing 2 times the cart button.

I hope you can help me out. Caus i really love the add-on and would like it to work.

Thanks in advance,

Regards,
Raymond
