Milestone Analytics: With Google Analytics 4 becoming the standard for website and app traffic analysis as Google sunsets Universal Analytics in July 2023, Milestone has completed over 500 successful migrations to help businesses prepare for the cookie-less future. These efforts allow clients to stay ahead of the curve by futureproofing them for the changes that GA4 is poised to bring. With Milestone Analytics, businesses can view granular website traffic data via a set of dynamic widgets to give users a comprehensive view of their online presence across locations and channels.
Milestone Menu Manager: Milestone’s Menu Managers offer businesses a scalable solution to manage menus on Google across business profiles. As every menu is optimized for search, it improves a business’ relevance in search for its menu items. Thanks to Milestone Menu Manager, companies can add and publish menus across locations simultaneously, customize menus for select areas, add menu item attributes to drive relevance, reorganize their menus, and more.
Milestone Schema Validator: Milestone Schema Manager now supports Schema.org v15.0 vocabulary update. The latest version of Schema.org’s shared vocabulary for structured data has several fixes and potential updates, including eCommerce additions via the pending section and other miscellaneous fixes. With the latest updates, Schema Manager’s feature ‘Drift’ detects changes in vocabulary on pages and alerts users to update their webpage Schema.
Implementing Schema.org’s Vocabulary 15 helps users create highly granular structured data for their pages, allowing search engines to quickly categorize pages for various rich results, improving visibility across SERPs (Search Engine Results Pages), and driving traffic to their website.
In addition to supporting the vocabulary update, Milestone Inc. has enhanced its Schema management capability with the launch of an easy-to-use tool to validate website Schema for all 800+ Schema types. The Milestone Schema Validator ensures that markup is error-free, making it a valuable tool for B2C and B2B businesses. https://schemavalidator.milestoneinternet.com/
