Schema App Structured Data

Description

What does the Schema App Structured Data WordPress Plugin Do?

The Schema App Structured Data WordPress Plugin automatically creates and deploys the default Schema.org Markup for your pages, posts, author, and other types of content on your WordPress site. By adding Schema Markup to your WordPress site, your pages will be eligible for rich results – allowing your site to stand out in search and get more clicks and conversions.

The plugin leverages the existing content on your site to automatically create and deploy the appropriate type of Schema Markup to your pages. Simply activate the plugin, add your business name and logo, and you’re done.

What type of default Schema Markup is automatically created with the Schema App WordPress Plugin?

• Page: https://schema.org/Article
• Post: https://schema.org/BlogPosting
• Search: https://search.org/SearchResultsPage
• Author: https://schema.org/ProfilePage
• Category: https://schema.org/CollectionPage
• Tag: https://schema.org/CollectionPage
• Blog: https://schema.org/Blog
• BreadcrumbList: https://schema.org/BreadcrumbList
• WebSite: https://schema.org/WebSite

The plugin also automatically adds Video Schema Markup for all YouTube Videos embedded on your page.

You can customize your Page and Post Schema Markup through the default settings (e.g. posts can default to NewsArticle) or by directly editing the generated JSON-LD for each page.

I have installed this plugin on the recommendation of Neil Patel, wathing a youtube video of his Channel. He recommended to use this pluging for best result. I know the coding, but I wanted to save my time. So I donloaded this plugin. But it is a premium plugin, hence I want to delete this. But I couldn’t Delete this plugin. It Shows error. The worse plugin I ever downloaded on my wordpress website.

webstpro September 4, 2020

YOu have to sign up for a “free” 14-day trial then if you don’t cancel you will be charged every month.

helped me to get rid of errors in google testing tool

bloup February 29, 2020

This plugin helped me to have a proper result in the Google structured data testing tool. Before, I have duplicates of structure data before I had errors. Then, I installed this plugin and everything is gone. Theme authors never accurately implement Structure data. SEO plugin authors never accurately implement structure data.

Data hoarding?

Woongeluk November 25, 2019

Needing an account for this simply is not acceptable. We do not need another club hoarding our data.
