Good morning, Search Marketer, and have you switched your markup yet?
Google announced in spring 2020 that content with data-vocabulary.org markup would be ineligible for rich snippets beginning in April. With COVID affecting so many businesses, they pushed back the deadline to January 31, 2021.
That's right around the corner. If you haven't switched to schema.org markup yet, you will see any featured snippets and other rich results drop from SERPs. Rich results are a big deal for organic visibility and traffic–so it's a change you'll want to make ASAP if you haven't yet.
You can use Google's Rich Results Testing Tool to determine if your markup is working correctly. Check out the announcement here and get more details on the structured data change.
May the SERPs be ever in your favor,
Carolyn Lyden
Director of Search Content
