Should I use Microdata markup on my blog or should I put just an JSON-LD with all info, or is using both the best option?

A bit of explanation. I am trying to mark up my blog and I manage to get to 1 error left in "Structured Data Testing Tool". The error left is a publisher meta. Now I don't want to add blog info at the bottom of the post. I used Organization meta in header where my logo is, but testing tool doesn't take it into account.

Should I add JSON-LD duplicating all info and adding publisher data or should I use just JSON-LD and not bother with marking whole page?

If the organisation info is static all across your blogs then you may define those properties using meta tags. It will not be considered as hidden content since the info is present on the page.

sample code:

<span itemprop="publisher" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Organization">
<meta itemprop="name" content="XYZ Org"/>
</span>

You can refer to the organisation markup using itemref. Add an id to the organisation markup, then use itemref="yourid" at the top of your markup which needs to include the organisation.

Don't duplicate your markup with JSON-LD; use one or the other.
