Applying schema markups for your website can take a lot of time and effort because of the variety of markups you have to create. Who has the time to write <\/span>Product <\/span><\/i>schema code manually for more than a hundred products or create <\/span>How-to <\/span><\/i>schema per article they publish?<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

While it may look like a hassle, applying schema markups is well worth your time and there are tools that could help make your life easier.<\/span><\/p>\n

Why do you need structured data?<\/span><\/h2>\n

It is known by most SEOs that <\/span>structured data<\/span><\/a> does not affect rankings directly. However, structured data helps Google better understand your content.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Let\u2019s say you have a website that focuses on food recipes. Google is able to rank your content for specific keywords but Google is not able to identify that your articles are, in fact, food recipes.<\/span><\/p>\n

By implementing <\/span>Recipe<\/span><\/i> structured data markup on your articles, you make it known to Google that your articles are food recipes which then makes you eligible for Rich Results.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

Rich Results<\/span><\/i><\/a> is a Google search result feature that makes your website more appealing to users. You can use <\/span>Google\u2019s <\/span>Rich Results Test<\/span><\/i><\/a> to check if a webpage is eligible for Rich Results.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Now that we\u2019ve established how important it is to have proper schema markups around your website, let\u2019s talk about applying them without going through the hassle.\u00a0 Luckily, WordPress plugins make it easier to apply schema markups around a website in just a few minutes.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, there are a lot of plugins out there to choose from so I\u2019ve curated the 5 best WordPress schema plugins that you can install on your website and enjoy the benefits of schema without having to break a sweat. It is also important to note that <\/span>Google recommends using JSON-LD structured data<\/span><\/a> but you don\u2019t have to worry about that since these plugins automatically use that format.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
