Help for venues / Your listing

Being found by search engines

Your page is built to be found: the full structured description search engines read, a canonical address so your four language versions never compete with each other, and your opening hours, phone, location and menu marked up as facts rather than text.

You do not configure any of this and there is nothing on a page for you to press. It is worth knowing it is there, because it is the reason a free listing here is worth having.

WHAT IS MARKED UP ON YOUR PAGE as structured data a search engine can read directly: your address, your phone, your website, your cuisines, your price range, your photo, your exact coordinates, your opening hours day by day, whether you take bookings, and your menu. Plus a breadcrumb trail so your page is understood as part of a structure rather than floating on its own.

ONE CANONICAL ADDRESS, FOUR LANGUAGES. Your English, Greek, German and Russian pages are declared to be the same page in four languages rather than four pages competing with each other. Getting this wrong is the commonest way a multilingual site damages itself, and it is handled for you.

YOUR STARS COME FROM MEMBER REVIEWS AND NOTHING ELSE. We publish a star rating only from reviews left here, by members. We used to mark up the Google rating as though it were ours and we took it out, because it is not ours and marking it up that way is against the rules. A venue with no member reviews yet shows no star. That is honest, and it is also why collecting reviews here is worth doing.

YOUR SEARCH CLICKS ARE ON MY NUMBERS, taken from Google's own figures, so you can see what the page is actually bringing you rather than being told it is working.

What it looks like Somebody in Limassol searches for your kind of food near them. Your page is eligible because your type, your location, your hours and your price range are all facts on the page rather than sentences a machine has to guess at. You did that by filling in the form. Everything after that was already built.
Worth knowing The two gaps that cost you most are no menu and no opening hours, because both are things a search engine will show directly in the results if you have them and cannot invent if you do not.
