microdata - Is there any schema.org type for teasers of a blog?

Question

Teasers on the front page of a blog surely are not the targets for us to add itemtype="http://schema.org/BlogPosting" to because each of them is not a full blog posting and is just one or two paragraphs with a "Continue reading" link instead.

But since they are part of a blog, is there any blog-related Microdata for them or not?

Answer 1

A person is still a person, even if you don’t provide the name. A place is still a place, even if you don’t provide the address. A blog posting is still a blog posting, even if you don’t provide the full content.

So using BlogPosting for a teaser is perfectly fine. If you don’t show the full content, just omit the articleBody property.
