Schema markup enables the categorization of data structure on your website, aiding search engines in analyzing your content more effectively and enhancing the presentation in their results.
This can enhance your site’s appeal in search engine results, as well as make it more engaging, interesting, and interactive, all of which are advantageous for your site’s SEO.
Below are examples of the most commonly used schemes found on nearly every website.
