Structured data (JSON-LD)

Structured data (schema.org) is a ranking signal for Google AND AI search.

What we check

Parses JSON-LD blocks and lists the detected schema.org types.

Why it matters

Structured data (schema.org) is a ranking signal for Google AND AI search.

Common causes

  • There simply is no markup, the CMS theme ships none.
  • The markup exists but is invalid (syntax errors, wrong types) and gets ignored.
  • Plugin-generated blocks contradict each other, say two Organization nodes with different data.

The fix

Embed at least Organization + WebSite, validate with the Google Rich Results Test.
