SEO Suite Component

Structured Data

Configure product, organisation, shipping, returns, local business and social machine-readable information.

OptionalComponent 1.1.12Difficulty: Moderate

Add accurate structured data that helps search engines understand your products, organisation and supported policies.

What is structured data?

It is a machine-readable information card placed in the page source. Customers usually do not see it, but supported search systems can use it to understand facts such as a product, price, availability, organisation or breadcrumb.

Eligibility is not a promiseStructured data can make a page eligible for enhanced search presentation where supported. It never guarantees a rich result, ranking or specific display.
