<h3>SNIP – Structured Data Plugin for WordPress to create Rich Snippets and Rich Search Results</h3>
<p>Since 2012, SNIP Structured Data has helped thousands of websites worldwide to <strong>display eye-catching search results on Google</strong> and other search engines. This gave them better visibility in search engines.</p>
<p>Eye-catching search results, you ask? How is that possible? It’s because of little snippets of code (called Structured Data) that <strong>tell search engines exactly what kind of content they’ll find on your site.</strong> This way, they can better understand that content. Certain Structured Data snippets are displayed on search results pages as <strong>Rich Search results</strong>, a different way of displaying your content on the search engine results page (SERP).</p>
<p>The free version allows you to add structured data to all your pages, posts or custom post types with the world’s first Structured Data Generator. So it contains everything you need to get started quickly on a standard WordPress site.</p>

<h4>My story and mission</h4>
<p>I originally developed SNIP for my own purposes. After a few months I decided to make it available to the public. After years on the market, there is finally a free version of SNIP.</p>
<p>My mission is to provide a high performance, easy to use and powerful plugin to <strong>bring structured data (which is part of technical SEO) to any WordPress site without having knowledge about the technical details of coding.</strong> SNIP’s users range from recipe, travel, WooCommerce stores to many other custom sites.</p>
<h4>Get ahead of the competition</h4>
<p>Do you do SEO on your website? Of course you do! Because you need to <strong>beat the competition.</strong> Structured data is technical SEO and can help you get eye-catching search results on Google and other search engines. Obviously, <strong>good looking search results</strong> get more clicks! SNIP uses the schema.org vocabulary to create schemas that can <strong>generate so-called Rich Snippets or Rich Results</strong> in search engines. You’ll see these as star ratings, price quotes, bullet points, images, and more on search results pages.</p>
<h4>Taking care of your Structured Data on your WordPress site</h4>
<p>SNIP Structured Data is packed with features designed to help visitors and search engines get a deep understanding of your site’s content. Some of my favorites features are:</p>
<ul>
<li>The world’s first <strong>Structured Data Generator</strong>.</li>
<li>Supports 30+ Schemas in the free version.</li>
<li>Supports <strong>all schema.org schemas</strong> (currently 800+) <strong>[PRO]</strong>.</li>

</ul>
<h4>Trust the expert</h4>
<p>I’m Florian (Flo for short), a freelance web developer who has been doing general web development for over 17 years. And as you might expect: I’m really passionate about what I do (who else can really claim that?). Hopefully you can feel my passion in the brand new SNIP plugin now available on wordpress.org. 🙂</p>
<h3>What users of the PRO version say</h3>
<p>★★★★★ by MChav06 via CodeCanyon:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>This is the first schema plugin that allows absolute control on a post-by-post basis. Support is excellent, and Florian is always open to new ideas to implement to make the plugin even better. Definitely worth every penny and then some.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>★★★★★ by vacuumsrus via CodeCanyon:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Dude seriously this plugin is worth three times what I paid for it. I tried two other plugins before this and looked over several others. Your plugin does EVERY THING all the other ones do all in one plugin. And slick too. (…) THANK YOU!</p>

<p>★★★★★ by jjsolutions via CodeCanyon</p>
<blockquote>
<p>At last I’ve found something that takes the stress out of creating structured data. Previously I’ve tried myself and there is always one tag out of place and it’s been impossible to get everything to pass the Google Structured Testing Tool but this plugin took the pain away.</p>

<p>★★★★★ by ecoman via CodeCanyon</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Perfect tool for structured data. And “Made in Germany” 🙂</p>
</blockquote>
<p>★★★★★ by mjankowski via CodeCanyon</p>

<p>I tried a few Rich Snippets plugins but they were all too complicated or simply didn’t work. Thanks to SNIP I have finally figured it out and now my website looks much better in Google search results. Strongly recommend!</p>
</blockquote>
<p>★★★★★ by Azraph via CodeCanyon</p>
<blockquote>
<p>It was hard to choose for which reason this plugin is the best rich snippet plugin available, it’s super customizable, the documentation is just amazingly extensive, not to mention the awsome video crash course on structured data that’s freely available on the author’s site, the customer support was, in my experience, one of the best support you could wish for. The overall quality of the product is top-notch, everything just works as it’s supposed to. Finally, this plugin is so flexible it will fit whatever your needs/setup is, you can automate and retrieve data from any field in posts_meta and even the wp_options table which practically covers any plugin and/or custom fields situation.</p>
</blockquote>
<h3>Get premium support</h3>
<p>I offer regular support on the WordPress.org forums. But I hope you understand that I have to give priority to my premium customers. This one-to-one email support is available for people who have purchased the Pro version of the plugin.</p>

<p><a href="https://wpsemplugins.com/downloads/wordpress-schema-plugin/" rel="nofollow ugc">Get Pro Version</a></p>
<p>We created this plugin for our own websites and for our clients websites after trying dozens of free and premium schema and rich snippet plugins for WordPress. There are some great ones out there for specific kinds of content.  There are also some plugins that try to automate schema markup without the ability to customize on a page-by-page level.</p>
<p>We could not find an easy-to-use, comprehensive JSON-LD plugin that provided features that most business websites need, that also included a high level of manual tweaking.</p>
<p>So we made our own and we get great results with it. And we strive to make these (the free and pro versions) the <a href="https://bloggerlocal.com/national/reviews/best-wordpress-schema-plugins" rel="nofollow ugc">best WordPress schema plugins</a> you can find, especially for bloggers, local businesses and ecommerce sites.</p>
<h4>What is Structured Data & Schema?</h4>
<p>Structured data adds context to your website content by way of using standardized search engine “vocabulary” at Schema.org. When implemented correctly, structured data increases the chances that search engines like Google will show additional information about your content directly in the search engine results pages (aka SERPs) via “rich snippets”. In other words, if you are searching for a WordPress rich snippet plugin, this may be the one you are looking for….</p>
<h4>What is a Rich Snippet?</h4>
<p>Rich snippets are the extra information that you often see right in the search results, such as:</p>
<ul>
<li>Star ratings</li>
<li>Events and event times</li>
<li>Embedded site search box</li>
<li>Videos</li>
<li>Breadcrumbs</li>
</ul>
<p>In other words, rich snippets are the visible result of structured data that appears in the SERPs.</p>
<h4>Does Structured Data Help With SEO?</h4>
<p>Absolutely! There is no question that structured data that produces rich snippet “bling” that improves SERP click through rates (CTR). Virtually every search engine expert on the planet will tell you that organic click through rates are a major search engine optimization ranking factor. This, structured data has a very high correlation (ie indirect relationship) with search engine rankings.</p>
<p>Proper structured data and schema markup on a website are also thought to increase a web page’s chances of triggering a “position zero” knowledge box or answer box at the verp top of the SERPs, and may even help improve your rankings in voice search.</p>
<p>Is there a direct effect on SEO?  Maybe.  Recent communication from Google indicates that <a href="https://searchengineland.com/google-may-add-structured-markup-data-to-ranking-algorithm-230402" rel="nofollow ugc">structured data may become a direct ranking factor in the near future</a>.</p>
<h4>Is This a “One and Done: Plugin Installation?</h4>
<p>No!  The big difference with our WordPress schema plugin and some of the other ones out there is that our allows for a high degree of manual customization.  There are some sitewide schema settings you can apply, but in general, you set schema up page-by-page, just as you do with many SEO plugins.</p>
<p>Just like all things on the Internet, it’s garbage in, garbage out. Just installing this plugin will not do anything for your website unless you use it correctly, and properly and accurately configure the data.</p>
<p>In other words, you should never add schema markup code the backside of your web page, if the data does not exist on the front.</p>
<p>Please don’t use our plugin to spam Google or any other search engine.</p>
<h4>Why JSON-LD?</h4>
<p>In summary, there are three structured data formats:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>MicroData</strong> (HTML based)</li>
<li><strong>RFDa</strong> (HTML based)</li>
<li><strong>JSON-LD</strong> (Java Script based)</li>
</ul>
<p>We used JSON-LD for many reasons. For one, JSON is less invasive from a coding standpoint. Second, Google can read JSON-LD data that is dynamically injected from Javascript code and embedded widgets. In layman’s terms, JSON is the latest and greatest…it’s where structured data is headed and in our opinion, it should be used to implement structured data on all WordPress websites.<br />
