Which Schema Do We Use?

There are nearly an infinite number of choices when it comes to Structured Data.

Deciding which is right for you can be difficult. Your goal should be to find the right combination for you. I try to meet the following criteria

1) Lifts you above the pack2) Offers better descriptions of

what your page offers3) Biggest “bang for your

buck”

The problems you face

Problems– Address city not the

same as nearest popular city or city you DBA in

– Competing with a large name-brand website

– A lot of local competition– Everyone else has the

same style of search result
