WPSSO Place and Local SEO Markup (Premium)

Let Pinterest, Facebook and Google know about your location(s):

Include Pinterest Rich Pin Place, Facebook / Open Graph Location, and Google Local Business / Local SEO meta tags in your webpages.

The WPSSO Place and Local SEO Markup (aka WPSSO PLM) add-on can be used in two different ways:

• To provide location information for an Organization, which in turn may be related to the content (ie. the content publisher, event organizer, etc.).

• To provide location information for the webpage content (ie. the post/page content is about a specific physical place) (Premium add-on).

Note that the WPSSO Organization Markup (aka WPSSO ORG) add-on is required to select a location for an organization / local business.
