Google explicitly says:<\/p>\n<p>Do not use DiscussionForumPosting for blogs or product reviews. If your forum is primarily question-answer based then consider using Q&amp;A markup instead.<\/p>\n<p>Lastly, make sure each post includes the full content of the thread and its comments if they appear on the same page.<\/p>\n<p>Need help? CMS users can rely on plugins or developer support.

Then, Discussions &amp; Forums started getting more visibility often from Reddit, Quora and Stack Overflow.<\/p>\n<p>Now, with this new update to Search Console, Google is showing that it values community knowledge\u2014and it\u2019s giving site owners the tools to optimize for it.<\/p>\n<p>So, if you run any kind of UGC platform, this is a clear signal:<\/p>\n<p>Structure your data properly and you will be rewarded with more visibility\u2014and more insight.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"seo-implications-what-should-you-do-now\"><\/span><b>SEO Implications: What Should You Do Now?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you already run a forum, this is your sign to implement structured data today. If you have already implemented it then go check your Search Console.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The new Discussion Forum appearance should now be live in your Performance report filters. You might start seeing data for your rich results right away.<\/p>\n<p>With this you should also audit your structured data using the Rich Results Test. Monitor clicks and impressions weekly to spot growth opportunities and lastly compare how threads with images or videos perform versus text-only threads.<\/p>\n<p>Even small tweaks like clearer headlines or better author markup can boost your visibility in Search.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"a-note-on-crawling-and-indexing\"><\/span><b>A Note on Crawling and Indexing<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Google also focused that structured data does not guarantee rich results.
