better understand page content and present better search results. While H1s and metas help Google to
understand what the page is about, structured data helps identify page content: e.g. job postings,
products, reviews, author headshots, video thumbnails, etc. Google can then present a search result
along with a “rich snippet” based on the mark-up.
