Why Marketers Are Adding Schema Markup to Their Websites? The answer is simple. More impressions, clicks, and time spent on web pages with rich results. This is the ‘feel good’ end of the story. However, it starts with how you show up in search. This is where structured data, or schema markup, comes in.
When marketers create TV commercials, in-store point of sale, or digital ads – the first goal is to make it stand out and get noticed for a consumer to take action – regardless of the medium. Often overlooked is ‘search’ and how a brand appears in search results.
Search is all about showing up for the user’s query, making an impression, and getting clicked.
Schema markup helps deliver more impressions and clicks.
Savvy marketers have learned to take control of their brand in search by taking advantage of visually appealing rich results through structured data, and more specifically schema markup – earning them more impressions, clicks, and time spent on web pages with rich results.
