No. 1 Ranking with SEO and Schema Markup

How does Schema work?

Schema is an important aspect of web development today. It is a structured and well-organised representation of data that helps the search engines to critically analyze all its aspects and rank the content accordingly. The schema makes it easy for the search engines to analyze and classify the content by providing all the information that the machine requires for bifurcation. It believes in providing structured data for websites.To rank a page, a website uses ‘site crawlers’ that help in the rankings of the page, depending on the response. A schema gives all the necessary information about the content in a few codes called ‘schema markup’ or ‘schema code’, which explains the content in a structured way to all the search engines to improve website visibility.

Why Schema?

Schema code or Schema markup is machine-readable code that highlights the key elements of the data and provides it to the search engine for an overall outlook and crux of the page. It is important, as this information helps the search engines to rank and classify the content accordingly.

Improving the CTR (click-through rate) is the key. If the information is accurate and to the point, then adding a structured markup will help in better visibility among all the Google applications like Google Maps, Shopping, images, etc, which in turn will increase the ranking on Google.

Applying SEO Schema for Shopify can be the best way out, as it helps in higher search engine rankings by elaborating product details, pricing, reviews and availability. Shopify supports SEO Schema that results in higher conversions and traffic leads by providing manual theme edits. 

SEO Schema is the best and most accurate way to provide to-the-point product details, pricing and reviews to sort the availability in the search. It enhances the visibility through rich snippets and click-through rates, enabling the content interpretation to be more accurate.

Types of Structured data for an E-Commerce website.

  • Product
  • Organization
  • Website
  • Breadcrumb
  • FAQ
  • Price

1. Product

Schema markup for a product has become very essential for e-commerce businesses for boosting their sales. It is important to highlight the key elements and markup so that the product reaches a large audience through increased visibility on search engines.

While making a product page, ensure that there is a proper name, description, color, theme, product ID, reviews, SKU, offers, and delivery time that should be mentioned. The provision of full details ensures safety and security to the buyer and makes them feel more secure.

For example:

{

“@context”: “https://schema.org/”,

“@type”: “Product”,

“name”: “Nike Air Max”,

“image”: “https://example.com/nike-air-max.jpg”,

“description”: “Lightweight running shoes.”,

“sku”: “NK-AM-001”,

“brand”: {

“@type”: “Brand”,

“name”: “Nike”

},

“offers”: {

“@type”: “Offer”,

“priceCurrency”: “USD”,

“price”: “99.99”,

“availability”: “https://schema.org/InStock”

},

“aggregateRating”: {

“@type”: “AggregateRating”,

“ratingValue”: “4.6”,

“reviewCount”: “276”

}

}

2. Organizational

Organization schema focuses on promoting the visibility of the business on search engines. It helps in making small businesses pop out more by adding organizational information behind the products. Information like the company’s logo, location, and brand name. It is advised to use the organization markup on a single page, preferably the homepage. 

Example:

<script type=”application/ld+json”>

{

“@context”: “https://schema.org”,

“@type”: “Organization”,

“name”: “ArtVibe Studios”,

“url”: “https://www.artvibe.com”,

“logo”: “https://www.artvibe.com/logo.png”,

“sameAs”: [

“https://facebook.com/artvibe”,

“https://instagram.com/artvibe”

]

}

</script>

3. Website

Website Schema is an additional plus point when talking about website rankings. Adding it to the homepage or website metadata will help Google understand the site structure, which will display more information regarding the product and its origin.

Example:

<script type=”application/ld+json”>

{

“@context”: “https://schema.org”,

“@type”: “WebSite”,

“url”: “https://www.artvibe.com”,

“name”: “ArtVibe”,

“potentialAction”: {

“@type”: “SearchAction”,

“target”: “https://www.artvibe.com/search?q={search_term_string}”,

“query-input”: “required name=search_term_string”

}

}

</script>

4. Breadcrumb

If the structure of the website data is known by the search engines it becomes easy for a website to rank. Breadcrumb navigation helps in displaying the structure of the website to Google and other search engines which helps in a higher ranking and improved website visibility.

Example:

<script type=”application/ld+json”>

{

“@context”: “https://schema.org”,

“@type”: “BreadcrumbList”,

“itemListElement”: [

{

“@type”: “ListItem”,

“position”: 1,

“name”: “Home”,

“item”: “https://www.artvibe.com”

},

{

“@type”: “ListItem”,

“position”: 2,

“name”: “Gallery”,

“item”: “https://www.artvibe.com/gallery”

}

]

}

</script>

5. FAQ

A dedicated schema for frequently asked questions is a game-changer. People usually type questions when they are comparing any products or when they don’t have a proper idea of them. The FAQ schema will target that section of people and will directly pop up in their answers, highlighting prices and reviews, with rich snippets. This will generate high click-through rates, which indicates more traffic on the website.

Example:

<script type=”application/ld+json”>

{

“@context”: “https://schema.org”,

“@type”: “FAQPage”,

“mainEntity”: [

{

“@type”: “Question”,

“name”: “What kind of paintings do you offer?”,

“acceptedAnswer”: {

“@type”: “Answer”,

“text”: “We offer modern, abstract, and custom artwork in various sizes.”

}

},

{

“@type”: “Question”,

“name”: “Do you ship internationally?”,

“acceptedAnswer”: {

“@type”: “Answer”,

“text”: “Yes, we ship worldwide with secure packaging.”

}

}

]

}

</script>

6. Price

If any discounts, offers, or freebies are being offered, adding a price schema to the website product link will prove to be very beneficial. This will promote the products to appear in the price drop section when searched on Google. Instead of applying it to the whole website, it will work best on the products that are under the same category as mentioned.

Example:

{

“@context”: “https://schema.org/”,

“@type”: “Product”,

“name”: “Wireless Headphones”,

“image”: “https://example.com/images/headphones.jpg”,

“description”: “Noise-cancelling over-ear headphones.”,

“sku”: “WH-1000XM5”,

“brand”: {

“@type”: “Brand”,

“name”: “Sony”

},

“offers”: {

“@type”: “Offer”,

“url”: “https://example.com/product/wireless-headphones”,

“priceCurrency”: “USD”,

“price”: “299.99”,

“priceValidUntil”: “2025-12-31”,

“itemCondition”: “https://schema.org/NewCondition”,

“availability”: “https://schema.org/InStock”

}

}
