Step 2: Use mentions schema
Utilize mentions schema to specify additional entities related to your core entity.
If you’re discussing the Mediterranean Diet, you might mention entities like “Olive Oil,” “Fish,” and “Exercise.”
{
"@context": "http://schema.org/",
"@type": "Article",
"mentions": [{
"@type": "Thing",
"name": "Olive Oil"
},
{
"@type": "Thing",
"name": "Fish"
},
{
"@type": "Thing",
"name": "Exercise"
}]
}
Step 3: Use ‘SameAs’ for authoritative sources
When you mention other entities, use the “SameAs” attribute to link to their authoritative sources, such as Wikipedia pages or scientific studies.
{
"mentions": {
"@type": "Thing",
"name": "Olive Oil",
"sameAs": "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olive_oil"
}
}
Step 4: Visualize using tools
Tools like Schema Zone can help you visualize your schema structure.
Plug in your URL to see if your schema correctly highlights your core and related entities.
Step 5: Test and monitor
Use Google’s Schema Testing Tool to make sure your schema is correctly implemented.
