Led by our co-founder, Mark van Berkel, who possesses over a decade of invaluable knowledge in semantic technology, and supported by a team with a combined experience of over 60 years in this field, we confidently identify ourselves as a leading Semantic Technology company.\nSince our inception, we\u2019ve been helping organizations across the globe implement connected Schema Markup on their websites to strengthen their SEO strategy.\nBy implementing Schema Markup, our customers can achieve rich results on search engine results pages (SERPs) and increase traffic to their sites. However, the advantages of Schema Markup extend beyond just obtaining rich results. Schema Markup is a semantic technology with numerous benefits.\nIn this article, we will explore what semantic technology is and how Schema App leverages it to provide meaningful context and understanding of data.\nUnderstanding Semantic Technology\nSemantic technology is a set of technologies, methodologies and standards that provide meaning (semantics) to data. It achieves this by representing relationships between different categories of entities, transforming raw data into knowledge.\nBy providing context, semantic technology enables machines to better comprehend and interpret data, leading to more intelligent decision-making processes.\nBackground and Terminology\nBefore jumping into how Schema App is semantic, it is essential to familiarize ourselves with key terms in the field of semantic technology.\nHere is a glossary of terms that will be referenced throughout this article.\nRDF (Resource Description Framework)\nA framework used to express data as a directed graph using subject-predicate-object statements known as triples.\n<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-14240 alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/RDF-triple-1.png?strip=all&lossy=1&resize=628%2C378&ssl=1\" alt=\"This image shows an example of a simple RDF graph where the subject predicates the object. \" width=\"628\" height=\"378\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/RDF-triple-1.png?strip=all&lossy=1&resize=628%2C378&ssl=1 628w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/RDF-triple-1.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 1380w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/RDF-triple-1-300x180.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/RDF-triple-1-1024x616.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/RDF-triple-1-600x361.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/RDF-triple-1-768x462.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/RDF-triple-1-998x600.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 998w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/RDF-triple-1-80x48.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 80w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/RDF-triple-1-386x232.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 386w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/RDF-triple-1-200x120.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 200w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/RDF-triple-1-100x60.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 100w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/RDF-triple-1-166x100.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 166w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/RDF-triple-1-140x84.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 140w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/RDF-triple-1-400x241.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 400w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/RDF-triple-1-220x132.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 220w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/RDF-triple-1-450x271.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 450w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/RDF-triple-1-1300x782.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 1300w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/RDF-triple-1-150x90.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/RDF-triple-1-30x18.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 30w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/RDF-triple-1-50x30.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 50w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/RDF-triple-1.png?strip=all&lossy=1&w=684&ssl=1 684w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/RDF-triple-1.png?strip=all&lossy=1&w=912&ssl=1 912w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/RDF-triple-1.png?strip=all&lossy=1&w=1140&ssl=1 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 628px) 100vw, 628px\" \/>\nBy combining these triples, vast interconnected graphs of resources can be created. This is done using Uniform Resource Identifiers (URIs).\nUniform Resource Identifier (URI)\nA URI is a string of characters that identifies a resource. It provides a consistent way to identify resources across different systems and protocols.\nA URL is a string of characters that both identifies a resource and where it\u2019s located on the web. Therefore, a URL is a type of URI.\nJavaScript Object Notation for Linked Data (JSON-LD)\nJSON-LD is a serialization format for expressing RDF data. In simple terms, it\u2019s one way to describe the subject-predicate-object statements. It also happens to be Google\u2019s preferred format for consuming Schema Markup\/structured data.\nOntology\nAn ontology defines the types of entities that can exist within a dataset, and the properties that describe and connect these entities. Schema.org is an example of a loose ontology, serving as a vocabulary rather than imposing strict logic constraints like other formal ontologies.\nKnowledge Graph\nA knowledge graph is a structured representation of information that captures the context and connections between entities, their attributes, and the relationships between them.\nSchema App uses JSON-LD to express how the Schema.org \u201contology\u201d defines the connections in your data (in our case, your content).\nAs a result, content on your page that states things like \u201cthis DeWalt Handsaw is from the brand DeWalt\u201d and you can express that in JSON-LD to help search engines understand that statement.\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-14241 alignnone\"

sizes=\"(max-width: 759px) 100vw, 759px\" \/>\nWhen you connect multiple entities using these technologies, you are constructing a knowledge graph.\nSearch engines can then interpret the relationships between entities through these knowledge graph connections, enhancing their understanding of the content on your site. More recently, knowledge graphs are also being explored as a means of grounding LLMs to prevent hallucinations in Generative AI.\nSo as you can see, these technologies are powerful sources of meaning (semantics) for machines like search engines.\nThe most foundational resource that both uses and is, in itself, a semantic technology, is Schema.org. Schema App utilizes the Schema.org vocabulary to help our customers translate their content to a language understood by search engines.\nWhat Makes Schema.org a Semantic Technology?\nSchema.org was founded in 2011 by Google, Bing, Yahoo and Yandex as a way to translate messy human language into structured, machine-readable language. This language is now supported by all major search engines, improving their ability to match search queries with relevant results.\nSearch engines have shifted to using semantic SEO to provide more accurate and relevant results to users. Instead of matching keywords in an article to search queries, search engines now understand the meaning (semantics) of the content on a page and identify if the content matches the searcher\u2019s intent and query.\nIn light of this, Schema.org was developed as a vocabulary of types and properties to clearly describe things on a site and provide context on how these things are connected to each other.\nTypes\nThe Schema.org types are organized into a hierarchy, starting with Thing and then providing more specific subtypes from there. Example: Thing, which has the subtype Person, which has the subtype Patient.\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-14242 alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-21-at-12.39.22-PM.png?strip=all&lossy=1&resize=414%2C530&ssl=1\" alt=\"Example of a schema.org type open hierarchy\" width=\"414\" height=\"530\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-21-at-12.39.22-PM.png?strip=all&lossy=1&resize=414%2C530&ssl=1 414w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-21-at-12.39.22-PM.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 552w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-21-at-12.39.22-PM-235x300.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 235w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-21-at-12.39.22-PM-469x600.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 469w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-21-at-12.39.22-PM-80x102.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 80w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-21-at-12.39.22-PM-181x232.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 181w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-21-at-12.39.22-PM-200x256.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 200w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-21-at-12.39.22-PM-47x60.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 47w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-21-at-12.39.22-PM-78x100.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 78w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-21-at-12.39.22-PM-140x179.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 140w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-21-at-12.39.22-PM-400x512.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 400w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-21-at-12.39.22-PM-220x281.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 220w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-21-at-12.39.22-PM-100x128.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 100w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-21-at-12.39.22-PM-450x576.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 450w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-21-at-12.39.22-PM-150x192.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-21-at-12.39.22-PM-23x30.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 23w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-21-at-12.39.22-PM-50x64.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 50w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 414px) 100vw, 414px\" \/>\nProperties\nEach type has a list of available properties to further describe it.

For example, a Person can have an address property which states the physical address of where the person is located. This information can either be added as plain text, or it can be used to link to the PostalAddress type which has its own page in Schema.org.\nBy connecting different Schema.org types on your site through the properties, you are defining the relationships between entities described in the content on your site and helping machines understand it.\nAt Schema App, we apply the Schema.org vocabulary (a loose ontology) to customer content, expressed in JSON-LD (a semantic technology) so that search engines can explicitly understand connections between things (semantics!).\nMachine-Readable Representations of Schema.org \nUnder the hood, the individual terms on the Schema.org website also have \u201dmachine-readable definitions\u2026available as JSON-LD, embedded into the term page[\u2018s] HTML\u201d.\nIf developers are interested in implementing the vocabulary for their own purposes, Schema.org provides downloadable \u201cVocabulary Definition Files\u201d available in \u201ccommon RDF formats\u201d like JSON-LD, Turtle, Triple, or RDF\/XML.

At Schema App, we use these files in the construction of our authoring tools and implementation of Schema Markup. This allows us to organize customer information in a meaningful way to machines.\nSchema App\u2019s expertise in semantic technologies is evident in our numerous tools and features.\nSchema App Tools and Features That Make Us Semantic\nHere are some of our tools and features that make us semantic.\nSchema App Editor & Highlighter\nThe Schema App Editor and Highlighter are two Schema Markup authoring tools created by our team. The Schema App Editor allows SEO teams to generate Schema Markup in JSON-LD and automatically deploy it to an individual web page without writing a single line of code.\nAll the pages optimized with Schema Markup can be updated and live on the site in minutes with this tool, making it easy to manage. The Editor contains the entire Schema.org vocabulary and creates connected Schema Markup via embedded data items to allow our customers to build out their knowledge graphs.\nThe Schema App Highlighter is also a no-code Schema Markup authoring tool, but it is for templated pages and dynamic content rather than individual URLs. With this tool, you can automatically apply descriptive Schema Markup at scale to thousands of pages and dynamically update your Schema Markup based on the content on your page.\nWhat makes our authoring tools semantic?\nBoth the Editor and the Highlighter have the same semantic features, just applied in a slightly different way.\nUsing the Schema.org vocabulary\nThe primary feature that makes our authoring tools semantic is how they author markup using the Schema.org vocabulary to express RDF triples (subject-predicate-object statements) in JSON-LD.\nThese statements (aka semantic triples) can be combined to create huge graphs of interconnected resources using URIs (Uniform Resource Identifiers). Earlier in the article, we saw a simplified version of the triples. The image below is a more accurate representation of the triples, where the URIs are the entities being described in the graph.\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-14247 alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/URI-entities-being-described-in-a-graph.png?strip=all&lossy=1&resize=678%2C408&ssl=1\" alt=\"URI entities being described in a graph\" width=\"678\" height=\"408\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/URI-entities-being-described-in-a-graph.png?strip=all&lossy=1&resize=678%2C408&ssl=1 678w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/URI-entities-being-described-in-a-graph.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 1380w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/URI-entities-being-described-in-a-graph-300x180.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/URI-entities-being-described-in-a-graph-1024x616.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/URI-entities-being-described-in-a-graph-600x361.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/URI-entities-being-described-in-a-graph-768x462.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/URI-entities-being-described-in-a-graph-998x600.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 998w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/URI-entities-being-described-in-a-graph-80x48.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 80w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/URI-entities-being-described-in-a-graph-386x232.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 386w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/URI-entities-being-described-in-a-graph-200x120.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 200w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/URI-entities-being-described-in-a-graph-100x60.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 100w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/URI-entities-being-described-in-a-graph-166x100.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 166w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/URI-entities-being-described-in-a-graph-140x84.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 140w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/URI-entities-being-described-in-a-graph-400x241.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 400w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/URI-entities-being-described-in-a-graph-220x132.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 220w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/URI-entities-being-described-in-a-graph-450x271.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 450w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/URI-entities-being-described-in-a-graph-1300x782.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 1300w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/URI-entities-being-described-in-a-graph-150x90.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/URI-entities-being-described-in-a-graph-30x18.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 30w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/URI-entities-being-described-in-a-graph-50x30.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 50w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/URI-entities-being-described-in-a-graph.png?strip=all&lossy=1&w=684&ssl=1 684w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/URI-entities-being-described-in-a-graph.png?strip=all&lossy=1&w=912&ssl=1 912w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/URI-entities-being-described-in-a-graph.png?strip=all&lossy=1&w=1140&ssl=1 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 678px) 100vw, 678px\" \/>\nBy doing so, they leverage Schema.orgs\u2019 means of translating human-readable content to machine-readable content, supporting the extraction of meaning (semantics) from web content.\nAll of Schema App\u2019s authoring tools are Ontology-driven applications. Therefore, any updates or modifications to the Schema.org vocabularies will be reflected in the tools. For example, if Schema.org introduces a new property for a specific Type, the new property will be available in Schema App\u2019s authoring tools.\nEntity Linking Features\nThe Highlighter utilizes an automated Linked Entity Recognition feature to identify entities on the page and link them to Google\u2019s knowledge graph and Wikidata definitions, while the Editor employs a manually applied Entity Linking Method. Both tools then nest the entities within the Schema Markup.\nBy using Entity Linking Methods like Linked Entity Recognition, our authoring tools can help search engines better contextualize the topics on your site and align them with the searcher\u2019s query.\nLinked Entity Recognition\nAs previously stated, Linked Entity Recognition (LER) is a powerful feature that can be applied to a Highlighter template to enhance content analysis.\nOnce applied, this automated process identifies named entities (such as people, places, things, and concepts) in content. It then links them to external identifiers from authoritative knowledge bases (like Wikipedia and the Google Knowledge Graph). These identifiers are automatically embedded within your Schema Markup.\nThrough the automatic embedding of these identifiers into the Schema Markup, the entities contribute valuable semantic information to the metadata. Consequently, Google and other web crawlers gain a deeper understanding of the content, thanks to the inclusion of well-defined, linked entities. This reduces ambiguity in the interpretation of content and supports more accurate matching to user queries.\nFor instance, we can say the DeWalt Handsaw is from the brand DeWalt, which is the same as the DeWalt described in this Wikipedia entity.\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-14248 alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Linked-Entity-Recognition-Example-1.png?strip=all&lossy=1&resize=870%2C300&ssl=1\" alt=\"Schema App's Linked Entity Recognition feature can link the entity to external identifiers from authoritative knowledge bases like wikipedia\" width=\"870\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Linked-Entity-Recognition-Example-1.png?strip=all&lossy=1&resize=870%2C300&ssl=1 870w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Linked-Entity-Recognition-Example-1.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 1000w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Linked-Entity-Recognition-Example-1-300x104.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Linked-Entity-Recognition-Example-1-600x207.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Linked-Entity-Recognition-Example-1-768x265.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Linked-Entity-Recognition-Example-1-80x28.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 80w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Linked-Entity-Recognition-Example-1-672x232.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 672w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Linked-Entity-Recognition-Example-1-200x69.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 200w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Linked-Entity-Recognition-Example-1-174x60.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 174w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Linked-Entity-Recognition-Example-1-290x100.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 290w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Linked-Entity-Recognition-Example-1-140x48.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 140w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Linked-Entity-Recognition-Example-1-400x138.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 400w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Linked-Entity-Recognition-Example-1-220x76.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 220w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Linked-Entity-Recognition-Example-1-100x35.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 100w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Linked-Entity-Recognition-Example-1-450x155.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 450w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Linked-Entity-Recognition-Example-1-150x52.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Linked-Entity-Recognition-Example-1-30x10.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 30w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Linked-Entity-Recognition-Example-1-50x17.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 50w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Linked-Entity-Recognition-Example-1-87x30.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1 87w, https:\/\/ezk8caoodod.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Linked-Entity-Recognition-Example-1.png?strip=all&lossy=1&w=912&ssl=1 912w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 870px) 100vw, 870px\" \/>\nBy linking the DeWalt Handsaw to the corresponding DeWalt entity on Wikipedia, search engines can clearly understand which DeWalt you are referring to.\nAdvanced WordPress Plugin\nLike our other authoring tools, our Advanced WordPress plugin provides markup using the Schema.org vocabulary. The plugin can automatically generate Schema Markup for pages and posts. It also provides users access to our Schema App Editor for further Schema Markup customizations.\nThe Advanced WordPress plugin also has the ability to map WordPress tags and categories to Wikipedia and Wikidata entities to help search engines better match content with relevant search queries on those topics.\nSchema Paths Tool\nThe Schema Paths Tool is a free tool created by the Schema App team to help users identify the best way to connect and organize different Schema types together within their Schema Markup. This is especially useful when you\u2019re unsure which properties are available to connect two different Schema.org Types.\nThe Schema App team identified a need for this within their suite of tools because Schema Markup is most beneficial when it\u2019s highly descriptive. One of the best ways to do this is by connecting your Types with the most descriptive property. The Schema Paths Tool helps you narrow down what properties each Type has that allow them to connect to one another (as an \u201cExpected Type\u201d).\nFor example, the Schema.org Organization type has more than 50 unique properties. If you want to connect an Organization to a Service it provides, you can enter both Types into the Schema Paths tool, and then receive a list of properties that can be used to connect these Types.\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-14249 alignnone\"
