7. Structured vs. Unstructured Content
• Google has reviewed over 130 trillion web pages. Let’s look at that with actual zeros and ones
– over 130,000,000,000,000 web pages.
• That is a lot of content to crawl, digest, index, and rank for the search engine results pages.
• When a search engine crawler goes to a traditional web page it will find unstructured content,
images, and links.
• In many cases, this is just standard HTML, PHP, and CSS code that is used for displaying
content.
• This regular HTML code creates visible content, but it is completely unstructured.
• When real structure is applied to content, a search engine crawler doesn’t just see text and
code. The search engine now discovers data sets, entities, types, properties, values, and
actions.
• The search engine sees a colorful world full of details that help it digest this content, relate it
to the real world, and position in search to perfectly match up to a human’s search queries.

10. In Google’s Own Words
Google Search works hard to understand the content of a page.
You can help us by providing explicit clues about the meaning
of a page to Google by including structured data on the page.
Structured data is a standardized format for providing
information about a page and classifying the page content.
Google uses structured data that it finds on the web to
understand the content of the page, as well as to gather
information about the web and the world in general.
Google Search also uses structured data to enable special
search result features and enhancements.

12. In Bing’s Own Words
As a content publisher, you can contribute to – and stand out –
by annotating your structured content.
Annotating your data doesn’t actually change the visible
content, but it does gives Bing valuable information on the
type of content you’re hosting on your site.
On our side, we put your annotations to good use, for example
by using them to increase the visual appeal of your search
results, or to supplement and validate our data sources.

Some Tools & WordPress Plugins
Copyright © 2019 Web Savvy Marketing ● Twitter @RebeccaGill
26. • One WordPress plugin will not manage all schema.
• You have to know what schema you need before you can search
and load a WordPress plugin.
• Examples of schema specific plugins are: local businesses,
recipes, products for sale, reviews, podcasts, videos, or authors.
• Plugins will most likely require configuration and data
population by you to work properly.
But Don’t Rely Just on Plugins
