Using schema.org markup for organization logos
Posted: 15 May 2013 01:52 PM PDT
Webmaster level: all

Today, we’re launching support for the schema.org markup for organization logos, a way to connect your site with an iconic image. We want you to be able to specify which image we use as your logo in Google search results.

Using schema.org Organization markup, you can indicate to our algorithms the location of your preferred logo. For example, a business whose homepage is www.example.com can add the following markup using visible on-page elements on their homepage:

<div itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Organization">
  <a itemprop="url" href="http://www.example.com/">Home</a>
  <img itemprop="logo" src="http://www.example.com/logo.png" />
</div>

  8. Time things right by using tools to determine when your community is online such as tweriod.com and Google Insights for search.
  9. Use del-author from Google and post to Google+ … that puts a picture by the search result for your content on Google, and as Fishkin says, users think ”picture = good, me click picture”
  10. Don’t ignore advertising … SEOmoz uses retargeting because social ads get more effective the bigger your inbound brand grows.
  11. Combine all these for the biggest impact......
