You Can Get A Google Penalty For Bad Links In FAQ Schema

A while back an SEO asked John Mueller of Google if "linking to an external site from the FAQ Schema of a discounts/vouchers site?" John responded, "sure." I guess if the link is against Google's webmaster guidelines, sure, you can get a manual action.

Here are those tweets:

Sure

It kind of felt like a loaded question, so I do like the way John responded to it.

Just make sure to review the FAQ rich result guidelines and the Google webmaster guidelines.
