drupal RDFa Rich Snippets

shared by François Dongier on 06 Apr 10 - Cached
  • The Drupal admin feels like it was developed by a developer while the Wordpress admin feels like it was developed by an end-user.
  • Even after improvements by Drupal, Wordpress probably still wins the ease of admin game
  • To display Rich Snippets, Google looks for markup formats (microformats and RDFa) that you can easily add to your own web pages."
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • To put it in really simple terms: rich snippets help you to be found by Google. That makes site administrators and SEO mavens get up to speed on RDFa
  • The best starting point for all things RDFa is a site called RDFa.info.
  • This 4 minute video is the most accessible way to understand how to use RDFa within Drupal:
  • This post on CMSWire, shows how RDFa is being introduced to Webmasters.
  • Today, very few sites take advantage of Rich Snippets. That will change when RDFa gets built into mainstream CMS, starting with Drupal.
  • Wordpress will catch up. Their users will demand this. So Wordpress and all other mainstream CMS will support RDFa in future.

  • Drupal Gardens is a hosted version of Drupal so you don't have to worry about installation, hosting or upgrading
  • Drupal Gardens is a gem in the rough, built on the Drupal 7 core - currently in an alpha release - extended with functionality such as a WYSIWYG editor (CKeditor), media management, a theme builder, and basic "query builder" (i.e. simpleviews) capability. We're working with the various module maintainers, and contributing back almost all of our development efforts to the Drupal community. Architecturally, Drupal Gardens is built on the ideas of an open social web; we markup data with RDFa, we implemented single-sign on using OpenID as our identity layer, we integrate with third-party services, and we allow people to export the code, the theme and data that makes up their site. We'll be sharing more technical details as we make progress, but we like to believe it will be a hosted service "done right".
