Schema can clarify entities and relationships that already exist on the page. It cannot substitute for missing content, weak relevance, poor authority, or a bad user experience.

1. Use schema to describe visible facts: organization, location, services, authors, products, articles, breadcrumbs, and other appropriate entities.

2. Keep names, URLs, addresses, prices, dates, reviews, and identifiers consistent with the visible page.

3. Use stable @id values to connect repeated entities rather than creating disconnected copies on every page.

4. Follow search-engine requirements for rich-result-specific markup, but do not assume eligibility guarantees display.

5. Validate both syntax and semantics. A validator can pass markup that is misleading or unsupported by the page.

6. Fix the underlying page first if it lacks useful service details, proof, or clear intent.

Structured data is an annotation layer, not a ranking repair kit. The page must be worth understanding before markup can help describe it.
