Google Search Console Pitfalls & Critical Warnings
Avoid these 3 common validation traps, parser errors, and algorithmic policy penalties when deploying PostOffice schema.
Confusing Staffed Counter Hours with 24/7 PO Box Lobby Access
Listing 24/7 hours for a post office where retail window service closes at 5 PM causes customer walk-in disputes.
List retail window hours in openingHoursSpecification and mention 24/7 lobby in amenityFeature.
Omitting Passport Service Specifications
Citizens search heavily for 'post office with passport photos'; omitting passport specs loses high-volume appointments.
Include LocationFeatureSpecification for passport appointment services.
Missing Daily Package Drop-Off Cutoff Time
Failing to disclose the 5:00 PM outgoing dispatch cutoff causes shippers to miss same-day delivery deadlines.
State last daily pickup cutoff time in structured amenity features.
