JSON-LD

Definition: A format used to embed structured data into a website, usually invisibly within the HTML header. Google prefers JSON-LD over older formats such as Microdata.

Everyday analogy: Like a fact sheet inside a book that only the librarian reads. It says: “This book is a novel, written by X, published in Y, genre Z.”

How we use it: Every SEO audit recommendation regarding rich snippets or AI citations is based on JSON-LD. We provide Schema code that’s ready to copy.
