Localbusiness marking helps the search engine recognize your site as a local business. This allows you to display the advanced cards of organizations in the search results in Google or in cards. If your site provides accurate information about the hours of work, reviews, departments and actions, Google can improve its presentation in the search.
To introduce structured markings, it is necessary to use the JSON-LD format. In this format, you describe information about the company: address, name, coordinates, hours of work, links and other data. Such marking facilitates Google understanding the structure of the page of your site.
An example of the minimum markup for the restaurant:
{
"@context": "https://schema.org",
"@type": "Restaurant",
"name": "Название ресторана",
"address": {
"@type": "PostalAddress",
"streetAddress": "Улица 1",
"addressLocality": "Город",
"addressRegion": "Регион",
"postalCode": "123456",
"addressCountry": "RU"
},
"geo": {
"@type": "GeoCoordinates",
"latitude": 55.7558,
"longitude": 37.6176
},
"openingHoursSpecification": [
{
"@type": "OpeningHoursSpecification",
"dayOfWeek": [
"Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday"
],
"opens": "09:00",
"closes": "21:00"
},
{
"dayOfWeek": ["Saturday", "Sunday"],
"opens": "10:00",
"closes": "23:00"
}
]
}
If several establishments are posted on your site, you can use the Carousel object with the Localbusiness entities. This allows Google to show businesses in the form of a carousel on search pages.
Use OpeninghoursSpecification to set the graph. You can indicate seasonal periods, night hours or work 24/7. For closed days, indicate the opening and closing as "00:00".
If the organization is divided into departments, for example, a pharmacy inside a supermarket, each department should be described separately in the Department array. At the same time, each department can set separate phones, watches and addresses.
For the correct indexation, you need:
It is best to place Localbusiness data on the pages describing a specific institution or office. Make sure the page is available for indexing, not blocked by Robots.txt and does not require authorization.
Use validation tools to check the code: a test of advanced results or a URL check tool. Eliminate critical errors and check how the search engine sees the page. It is also recommended to configure the site card with current URLs.
