    Local Business Schema (SEO)

    Why Local Business Schema?

    Structured data adds context to your website content by way of using standardized search engine “vocabulary” at Schema.org. When implemented correctly, structured data increases the chances that search engines like Google will show additional information about your content directly in the search engine results pages (aka SERPs) via “rich snippets”.

    Structured data and schema are becoming more important for search engine optimization.

    Improve your Local SEO in Sort Time. Getting 1st Position in Google Map. Getting more Calls, Store Visits from Google My Business Page.

    Local Business: Address | Business hours | Contact Details. When users search for businesses on Google Search or Maps, Search results may display a prominent Knowledge Graph card with details about a business that matched the query. When users query for a type of business, such as a restaurant, they may see a carousel of listings hosted by restaurant listing providers.

    Corporate Contact Information: Your corporate contact information displayed in the Google Knowledge panel.

    Logos: Your organization’s logo in search results and Google Knowledge Graph.

    Social Profile Links: Your social profile information displayed on Google Knowledge panels.

    Local Business Schema plugin which enables web designers and business owners a super-easy way to add schema for:

    • Business Name
    • Business Logo
    • Business Address
    • Business hours
    • Contact Details
    • Business Social Profile

    What Is A Rich Snippet?

    Rich snippets were designed to give users more information about search results. Google has always been about the customer experience, so rich snippets provide more information to the customer and either answer their query or give them more insight into a search result before they click it.

    What is Recipe Markup?

    Mark up your recipe content with structured data to provide rich results and host-specific lists for your recipes, such as reviewer ratings, cooking and preparation times, and nutrition information. This content can be eligible to be displayed as a rich result in Search results and guidance with the Google Assistant on Google Home.

    Structured Data’s Effect On Rankings

    Whether structured data affects rankings has been the subject of much discussion and many experiments. As of yet, there is no conclusive evidence that this markup improves rankings. But there are some indications that search results with more extensive rich snippets (like those created using Schema) will have a better click-through rate.

    According to John Mueller, structured data helps a web page rank better in the same way regular content helps a page rank. The heart of search engine optimization is making it easy for a search engine to understand what the web page is about. Structured data is a fantastic way to communicate what products are for sale, where a business selling the product is located, what the hours of operation are, how many people reviewed a product and so on. Structured data makes it easy to communicate important information about a product, a business and a web page.

    BNE Testimonials Professional – WordPress Testimonials and Opinions (Interface Components)

    BNE Testimonials PRO is a WordPress testimonial plugin that adds easy to use testimonials and reviews anywhere on your website. Uses featured images to display your reviewer’s photo or perhaps a company logo, default visual editor to craft your reviews however you like, and 3 additional fields that provide a tagline, such as their company name, website URL, and a 5 star ratings. In addition, your testimonials include the schema.org review markup.

    Enjoy displaying your testimonials with 4 different layouts each with 4-5 different themes including custom styling.

    BNE Testimonials Pro even makes it easy to display the same reviews on multiple websites using the WordPress REST API. Do you have Yelp, Google or Facebook reviews? We can display those as well or create your own. Reviews for everyone!

    Features

    • 4 Layouts: List, Slider, Thumbnail Slider, Masonry Grid.
    • 4 Themes: Simple, Default, Bubble, and Cards.
    • Custom styling options.
    • Shortcode builder.
    • Front-end testimonial submission with admin email notification.
    • Incorporate WP RestAPI, Yelp, Facebook, Google Places, and Yellow Pages API’s.
    • Star Ratings with Schema.org tags for local online search.
    • Automatic Updates to new versions.
    • Numerous filters/hooks for developers.

    Take Testimonials, Custom Style, Themes, and Layouts

    Testimonials can be added manually, or using a front end form. You can also pull in reviews from other platforms such as Google and yelp. With all of this, displaying the testimonials is important as well and we made sure you have a handful of themes, and layouts to choose from.




    Testimonials RestAPI

    The testimonials API opens your public testimonials to the WordPress REST API. What that means, if enabled, other websites or apps can query testimonials from your website and display them on theirs. This is no different than what the REST API already provides with pages and blog post.

    An example use for this would be a multisite network or external mirrored websites where you have a main website with the testimonials and all the child sites need to also display the same testimonials. Before hand, you would need to export and import your testimonials into each child/external site and routinely update each one. With the API, the child sites always display the current set from the main website.

    API Review Platforms

    Show Your Business Reviews from Facebook, Google, Yelp and Yellow Pages. Using the API of these providers, your reviews are always updated. No need to manually add them to your site. All layouts and themes are available to use. Some providers require their specific style (star color) and branding.

    API Platforms Requirements: Facebook, Google, and YP requires an API or token key from their sites. Steps on how to obtain a token/API key are available on our support site.




    Plugin Requirements

    • WordPress v4.5, PHP v5.4+
    • Browser Support: Safari, Firefox, Chrome, IE9+
    • API Platforms Requirements: Facebook, Google, and YP requires an API or token key from their sites.

    Support

    We will answer basic support questions on CodeCanyon. If you have any issues with running Flyouts on your website, please contact us. We cannot guarantee that there will not be any conflicts with your theme or other plugins; however, we will do our best to help you solve any issues.

  • Huber: Multi-Objective Evaluation Theme (Wpblog / Journal)

    Huber: Multi-Objective Evaluation Theme (Wpblog / Journal)

    Huber is a modern multi-purpose review theme that allows you to create a powerful and interactive review site. Huber has the edge over other review themes because of its unique and powerful hub system.

    A hub is a post or page that contains information for a particular item (e.g. a game, movie, holiday destination). Each hub can have tabs (Reviews, News, Images Videos, Forums) that show content related to this item. Reviews, news, videos and images associated with a hub will automatically display under the relevant tab.

    Key Features










    More Key Features

    BuddyPress
    Huber has been specifically designed for BuddyPress so you can create a great looking social network.

    bbPress
    bbPress is known for its simplicity and ease of use. Huber keeps all that and has completely redesigned bbPress to give you a great looking forum platform.

    Front-end and Social Login
    Huber comes with an entire front-end login, registration and lost password interface so the user never sees the WordPress login page. It also works seamlessly with the WordPress Social Login plugin so your users can login via Facebook, Twitter, Google+ etc.

    Trending Posts
    The theme utilises the WordPress Popular Posts plugin to display your trending posts. Unlike most plugins or themes trending posts are based on the number of post views over a specific time range (last day, week etc.) instead of displaying the number of views from all the time.

    Vote Up/Down Posts
    Huber allows you to vote up or down any post/page and order items by most likes.

    Profile Link/Notifications Counter
    Huber gives you the ability to add the logged in user’s profile link to your menus and add the BuddyPress notifications counter beside it so users can keep track of who’s sent them a message, friend request etc.

    Multiple Advertisement Areas
    Huber allows you to add leaderboard ads in the header and footer of the site which are fully responsive.

    Multiple Page Headers
    Select from multiple types of page header including standard, fullwidth and full page. You can also add videos in the header as a background or a playable video.

    Ajax Filtering
    Ajax filtering allows you to move from page to page without reloading the page improving page load time. You can also filter posts by category, date, comments, views, title and date range.

    Sticky Sidebars
    Huber comes with Theia Sticky Sidebar plugin (worth $18) that allows your sidebar to become permanently visible so it moves down the page as the user scrolls through the content. This great for ads and other information that you want to keep in view all the time.

    Search Engine Optimization
    Huber is built with the latest SEO practices in mind. Semantic HTML5 for better search result placement, schema markup of all content, correct use of H tags, main content loaded before secondary content – we have it all covered.

    Translation Ready
    The Review comes with translation files so you can easily translate your site into any language you want.

    Icon Font
    Why are icon fonts so important? Simple. They are so easy to use, look great at any size and make your content look that much better. Huber includes the Font Awesome library to give you nearly 400 icons to use throughout your navigation, paragraphs, buttons, lists, and just about anything else you can think about.

    Clean Code
    Huber conforms to the best coding practices when it comes to HTML, CSS, PHP and JavaScript. We hate clutter and all our code is simple, clean and easy to read. This is especially important if you want to edit the code yourself. We’ve implemented the latest HTML5 and CSS3 techniques along with cutting edge WordPress standards to ensure that your theme will give you the best possible experience in terms of the latest web features and faster page load times.

    Post Formats
    Manage your blog posts better by taking advantage of WordPress custom post formats. The following post formats are included, each with their own unique style and options: Standard, Gallery, Link, Quote, Audio and Video.

    Customer Support
    We offer top notch support which means you will receive detailed answers to any questions you may have quickly. Trouble using the theme? Find a bug? We’ll solve it for you.

    Individual & Global Options
    The theme gives you the ability to change the options globally for all posts, pages and categories or you can do this on individually.

    Create Unlimited Sidebars
    Create unlimited sidebars that you can display on any page you want.

    Child Theme
    Comes with a child theme so if you ever want to make any code changes they will not be overwritten when you update the theme.

    Redux Framework
    The theme uses the Redux framework which is a simple, truly extensible options framework for WordPress themes and plugins. This allows you to customize the site live using the WordPress Customizer.

    Gauge and The Review Users

    Will my hubs and reviews work with this theme?

    Yes! If you are already using Gauge or The Review themes you can use this theme without the worry of things not working. Huber comes with a theme converter that converts all your hubs and reviews so everything looks pretty much like it did before. Please note custom hub tabs will need to be built again and hub awards are not currently supported.

    What’s different about this theme?

    There’s a lot of differences, here’s a look at a few of them:

    • Hubs no longer use child pages for tabs. The Reviews, News, Images and Videos tabs are now part of the hub page. This reduces the number of pages generated, reduces the number of database queries and makes creating hubs even easier.
    • Hubs and reviews can now be either posts or pages.
    • You can now add multiple reviews to each hub item (you associate reviews with hubs just like you do with posts).
    • Hubs now include a Forums tab by default for easily adding forum content.
    • You can now add multiple affiliates to each hub.
    • Release dates are now treated like a proper date field so you can order by this date, filter by specific date ranges, show only items from future release dates etc.
    • Add review results to the top of reviews.
    • Images now work with CDNs and image compression plugins.
    • Tons of speed improvements.
