what is best “Business Type” for SEO for affiliate marketing

Hello,

Thank you for contacting Rank Math today.

The settings you set are fine, maybe you could set something related to Education but right now they are also fine so you shouldn’t worry.

About the product reviews schema, are you using now Rank Math with the schema? If yes, are you using the product schema? Or do you mean you used the old review schema (which was removed by Google some months ago)?

Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.

Hello,

Could you share (in the Sensitive Data section) the InDeed article so we can check it and try to help you to find which schema they are using and how you can implement a similar one on your site?

Looking forward to help you.

Hello,

From the article you have shared on indeed, it seems to be more of a professional service than educational.

For the issue with your rating and the aggragateRating warning, please note that Rank Math takes the schema data from your product pages automatically and turns it into Schema-ready content. Likewise, the aggregateRating and review fields are taken from your actual product reviews that your buyers/customers leave on your products.

If you don’t have any reviews yet, that is going to show up as a warning in the schema testing tool. That’s because Google will actually look for those fields.

Please acquire some reviews and ratings to get rid of the aggregateRating and review warnings.

You can fix the SKU and availability issue easily as well:

To fix the brand warning, head over to WordPress Dashboard > Rank Math > General Settings > WooCommerce and choose from any of the available fields to use as your product’s brands.

If you want to use a custom value for your Brands, you can do that by using the following code in your theme’s functions.php file:

// Add Brand for Products.
add_filter( 'rank_math/snippet/rich_snippet_product_entity', function( $entity ) {
$entity['brand'] = 'Rank Math;
return $entity;
});

Replace the “Rank Math” text with your actual brand name then run your website through the Structured Data Testing tool once again.

For the GTIN, ISBN, MPN issue, you can fix it by adding that to your products using the custom product attribute feature in WooCommere or you can use this plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/product-gtin-ean-upc-isbn-for-woocommerce/

For the priceValidUntil warning, you have to either ignore that or add a sale price with validity to get rid of it: https://i.rankmath.com/cMqAAH

Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.

Hello,

The messages you see like you need the SKU or reviews are there since Google usually wants it in sites using that schema.

But they are just warnings, you can safely ignore them (or at least, just some of them).

If you can find an SKU for that review, add it. If not, just ignore it, it won’t harm your SEO.

The same applies to the user reviews. You could install some plugin where you are able to add some user reviews by yourself, or since you are not selling the product and it is just a warning, you can ignore it without any issue.

Looking forward to help you.
