      Can someone explain me what it is and what is it used for.

      From my understanding it is something used by computers to understand language.

      In other words it is what you can say about an entity. For example a person works, is born somewhere but if I write Mr X flies to as human we do understand but as a computer the computer doesn't understand.

      Is that what schema is for ? telling me what I can say about an entity using specific verbs so that computers can understand.

      Thank you,

        Schema markup helps your website to stand out from other websites.

        Schema helps you to add Rating stars, adding recipe data and much more!!

        You can read more about schema markup from below links:

          • I need help on how best to do a complicated site migration. Replacing certain pages with all new content and tools, and keeping the same URL's. The rest just need to disappear safely. Somehow.

          • Need to update Google Search Console profile for http to https change. Will a "change of address" option suffice or do we need to create a new GSC profile?
