Product Review Schema: Showcase Your Products on SERPs
Another standout feature in AIOSEO 4.6.8 is the introduction of Product Review Schema. This powerful tool lets you showcase your editorial product reviews in rich search snippets, helping your content stand out and attract more clicks.
By adding Product Review schema to your pages, you can highlight the product's pros and cons, making it easier for users to grasp the key points of your product quickly. This schema type is particularly useful for e-Commerce sites and blogs that sell affiliate products.
Car (Vehicle Listing) Schema: Showcase Your Car Inventory
Another exciting addition is the Vehicle Listing (Car) Schema, designed specifically for car dealerships and automotive websites.
With Car schema, your car listings will be more prominent in search results, increasing the chances of attracting potential buyers. This schema type supports a wide range of vehicle details, from make and model to mileage and price, ensuring that users have all the information they need to make an informed decision.
Table of Contents Schema: Enhance Your Post Structure
AIOSEO 4.6.8 also introduces Table of Contents Schema, which automatically outputs schema markup for your posts' table of contents.
This feature helps search engines better understand the structure of your content, potentially improving your rankings and visibility.
By using the Table of Contents block in your posts, you can now benefit from the added schema markup without any extra effort. This schema type is particularly useful for long-form content, as it allows search engines to provide users with a quick overview of the post's main sections.
Plus, it improves your chances of getting jump links on SERPs.
This is an excellent way of increasing your clickthrough rates.
Improved Schema Visualization
Another notable enhancement in AIOSEO 4.6.8 is the improved visibility of schema graphs in the graph overview and schema validator. When using the Block Editor, you can now easily identify the schema graphs associated with your AIOSEO blocks by clicking on the icon in their card.
This feature provides a clear visual representation of your schema implementation, making it simpler to monitor and troubleshoot your schema markup.
