WPSSO Schema JSON-LD Markup (Premium)

Supports over 495 different Schema types and sub-types:

Google Rich Results and Structured Data for Articles, Carousels (aka Item Lists), Claim Reviews, Events, FAQ Pages, How-Tos, Images, Local Business / Local SEO, Organizations, Products, Ratings, Recipes, Restaurants, Reviews, Videos, and more.

Uses filters to dynamically (and automatically) create Schema markup, allowing the WPSSO Schema JSON-LD Markup add-on to provide an almost unlimited number of Schema types, children sub-types, and properties inherited from each parent type (for example, Restaurant is a sub-type of Food Establishment, which is a sub-type of Local Business, which is sub-type of both Organization and Place, which are both sub-types of Thing).

Uses your existing WordPress content, plugin and service API data:

There's no need to manually re-create descriptions, titles, product information, re-select images / videos, etc.

This add-on provides accurate and comprehensive Schema JSON-LD markup for posts, pages, custom post types, terms (category, tags, etc.), custom taxonomies, user profile pages, search result pages, archive pages, and Accelerated Mobile Pages (AMP) pages — including image SEO, video SEO, local business, organization, publisher, person, author and co-authors, extensive e-Commerce product markup, product variations, product ratings, aggregate ratings, reviews, recipe information, event details, collection pages, profile pages, search pages, FAQ pages, item lists for Google's Carousel Rich Results, and much more.

Most complete Schema JSON-LD markup for WooCommerce products:

The WooCommerce plugin is known to provide incomplete Schema markup for Google. The WPSSO Core Premium plugin (required for WooCommerce integration) and its WPSSO Schema JSON-LD add-on provide a far better solution by offering complete Facebook / Pinterest Product meta tags and Schema Product markup for Google Rich Results (previously known as Rich Snippets) — including additional product images, product variations, product attributes (brand, color, condition, EAN, dimensions, GTIN-8/12/13/14, ISBN, material, MPN, size, SKU, weight, etc), product reviews, product ratings, sale start / end dates, sale prices, pre-tax prices, VAT prices, and much, much more.

Fixes all Google Search Console / Structured Data Testing Tool errors:

• A value for the headline field is required.
• A value for the image field is required.
• A value for the logo field is required.
• A value for the publisher field is required.
• The aggregateRating field is recommended.
• The brand field is recommended.
• The headline field is recommended.
• The image field is recommended.
• The mainEntityOfPage field is recommended.
• The review field is recommended.
• This Product is missing a global identifier (e.g. isbn, mpn or gtin8).
• No global identifier provided (e.g. gtin mpn isbn).
• Not a known valid target type for the itemReviewed property.
• And more...

Some Schema property values may require data from WPSSO Core Premium supported 3rd party plugins and service APIs.

Google regularly updates and changes their Schema markup requirements - WPSSO JSON Premium customers can also open a Premium support ticket for assistance with any new Google testing tool errors.
