What it means
Schema markup is extra code that explains what a page is about to search engines. In normal terms, it is one small part of how Google and people understand your site.
Why it matters
It can help Google understand products, businesses, FAQs, reviews, events and more. Sometimes it unlocks richer search results.
What to do about it
Add schema that matches the visible page. Do not mark up things users cannot see. Start with local business, product, FAQ or article schema where relevant.
Bloom's take
Bloom suggests schema only when it fits the page and can be checked properly.
