Back in April we reported about issues with recipe rich results in Google. This was an issue that recipe sites started to lose their rich results and cards in masses. Well, back on June 28th, 2+ months after the issue, Google seems to have mostly fixed the problem.
Jeff Hawley has been following the issue closely and confirmed for me yesterday that the issue is mostly resolved now. He said on Twitter “We still saw issues on 6/25, but on 6/28 we saw the first major improvement.”
Here are his tweets when I asked him for an update on this issue:
It is unclear what the issue was, I am being told from these sites that they didn’t have to specifically do anything to be impacted by this bug or recover from the bug. Google did chime in a while back that they were investigating it but nothing happened for months.
Now it seems to be resolved.
