Google Structured Data Markup v1.2.3 released

Google Structured Data Markup v1.2.3 is now available. This release introduces a very essential feature for your businesses, it's known as Local Business Data.

Now you are able to exactly pinpoint your Business on the map, specify your Street Address and phone number and finally set your Opening Hours in great detail for each day of the week.

Also, the generated schema now points to https://schema.org instead of the unsecure one. Even though it is not mandatory yet to point to the secured version, we have decided to change it regardless and be ready for the near future.

Changelog

  • Implements Local Business Data (Type, Business hours, Phone, Address, Map)
  • Updates schemas with https protocol
  • Changes the sitelinks searchbox URL to absolute format
  • Backend UI improvements
