Schema can improve your SEO by enhancing your visibility and relevance in the search results. For example, schema can display rich snippets, breadcrumbs, ratings, reviews, and other useful information that can attract more clicks and conversions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Schema is based on a vocabulary of types and properties defined by <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/schema.org\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">schema.org<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, a community initiative supported by major search engines such as Google, Bing, Yahoo, and Yandex<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Schema can provide context to an otherwise ambiguous webpage.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this tutorial, we will demonstrate how to configure schema markup using Schema.org Metatag, a popular and easy-to-use Drupal module for schema implementation. This module extends the Metatag module and enables you to add schema types and properties to your website using a user-friendly interface.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Installing the Schema.org Metatag Module<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Schema.org Metatag module adds over a dozen schema types to your website, such as Organization, Person, Website, Article, Event, Product, Review, and more. You can choose the schema types that are most relevant to your website and content.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To configure the Schema.org Metatag module, follow these steps:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Login to your Drupal site and Install the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.drupal.org\/project\/schema_metatag\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Schema.org Metatag<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> module.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now you need to enable Schema.org Metatag and the schema type(s) that suit your needs from the extend list. Some common schema types that you can start with are Schema.org Organization, Schema.org Person, or Schema.org Website.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-62614 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tothenew.com\/blog\/wp-ttn-blog\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Screenshot-from-2024-06-19-23-16-00.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1899\" height=\"900\" srcset=\"\/blog\/wp-ttn-blog\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Screenshot-from-2024-06-19-23-16-00.png 1899w, \/blog\/wp-ttn-blog\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Screenshot-from-2024-06-19-23-16-00-300x142.png 300w, \/blog\/wp-ttn-blog\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Screenshot-from-2024-06-19-23-16-00-1024x485.png 1024w, \/blog\/wp-ttn-blog\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Screenshot-from-2024-06-19-23-16-00-768x364.png 768w, \/blog\/wp-ttn-blog\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Screenshot-from-2024-06-19-23-16-00-1536x728.png 1536w, \/blog\/wp-ttn-blog\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Screenshot-from-2024-06-19-23-16-00-624x296.png 624w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1899px) 100vw, 1899px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>Configuring the Schema.org Metatag Module<\/b><\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Go to Configuration &gt; Search and metadata &gt; Metatag from your navigation menu.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> To add schema to all pages of your website, click on the Edit button next to Global.
