Google Adds Breadcrumb Structured Data To Search Console Enhancement Report
Sep 20, 2019
But when I looked the problem is against good web design practices.
There is an old good web design practice to not include a live link in your navigation for the current page the person is on.
e.g.
Home > Category Name > Sub Category Name > Product Name
The first 3 parts of this breadcrumb trail would be clickable so the person can see where they are in the site structure and go back if necessary without using the back button. The last part (Product Name) is not clickable for usability and good practices reasons but Google wants it clickable.
So who wins? Google or good usability/practices?
