Feature

Structured Data

Structured data helps search engines and AI systems parse the meaning of your content. SiteScore detects JSON-LD and microdata, parses common schema.org types, and surfaces invalid or incomplete markup for review.

What this feature checks

5 checks in this category. Every check links to the source markup it inspects.

JSON-LD detection

Finds <script type="application/ld+json"> blocks.

Microdata detection

Identifies itemscope, itemtype, and itemprop attributes.

Schema type parsing

Recognizes common types like WebPage, Article, Product, BreadcrumbList.

Required-property check

Flags commonly required properties for known types.

Syntax validation

Reports JSON parse errors in JSON-LD blocks.

How the analysis works

How SiteScore inspects structured data

A straightforward look at what happens when you run this analysis.

  1. 1

    SiteScore scans the DOM for structured-data markup and parses JSON-LD blocks.

  2. 2

    Known schema types are matched against expected property sets for a quick completeness check.

  3. 3

    Each block is shown in the evidence panel so you can review the raw markup.

Example findings

What a finding looks like

Each finding includes severity, observed evidence, and a suggested fix. The data below is labeled sample data.

Article schema missing author

Article type detected without an "author" property.

Warning
Suggested remediation

Add an author property referencing a Person or Organization.

Invalid JSON-LD block

A JSON-LD script block could not be parsed as valid JSON.

Critical
Suggested remediation

Fix the JSON syntax error in the structured-data block.

Honest limits

Evidence and limitations

  • SiteScore does not perform full Google Rich Results validation. Use the official Rich Results Test for that.
  • Presence of structured data does not guarantee rich-result eligibility.
Practical guidance

How to act on findings

Treat each finding as a starting point. Use the evidence panel to locate the relevant markup, apply the suggested fix, then re-run the analysis to confirm the issue is resolved.

Severity is a guide, not a rule. A warning that affects your primary content may matter more than a critical issue on a low-traffic page.

Combine SiteScore with official tools — Search Console, the Rich Results Test, and PageSpeed Insights — for a complete picture.
