Create entity inventory<\/h3><p>First, relevant entities are identified. For each entity, documentation is provided:<\/p><ul><li>preferred name<\/li><li>alternative spellings<\/li><li>Type<\/li><li>primary URL<\/li><li>stable internal identifier respectively <code>@id<\/code><\/li><li>central features<\/li><li>Relationships to other entities<\/li><li>official external profiles<\/li><li>Person responsible for changes<\/li><\/ul><p>The inventory prevents plugins, templates, and editorial teams from generating different versions of the same identity.<\/p><h3 id=\"2-kanonische-entity-seiten-festlegen\">2. Define canonical entity pages<\/h3><p>Every important entity needs a clear &#8222;home&#8220; location on the website. For organization, this is usually the homepage or a company page. For a central person, a &#8222;about me&#8220; or profile page works well. Products and services have their own target pages.<\/p><p>A page can mention multiple things, but should retain a clear primary purpose.<\/p><h3 id=\"3-stabile-id-werte-verwenden\">3. Stable <code>@id<\/code>-values use<\/h3><p>&#8222;In JSON-LD a stable&#8220; <code>@id<\/code> make the same entity referenceable across various markup blocks. For example, an article can be on <code>https:\/\/example.com\/#person-markus<\/code> As an author, cite, while the about-me page provides the same ID in detail. The <code>@id<\/code> connects objects within the markup; it generates neither external verification nor a guaranteed search or AI rendering.<\/p><p>Important:<\/p><ul><li>no staging domain in production IDs<\/li><li>not generate new IDs per page for the same person<\/li><li>Unify HTTP\/HTTPS and www variants<\/li><li>IDs not equipped with changing tracking parameters<\/li><li>Account for changes to the domain or structure in the migration planning<\/li><\/ul><h3 id=\"4-beziehungen-modellieren\">4. Model relationships<\/h3><p>Entities gain context through correct relationships. Examples:<\/p><ul><li>a person <code>worksFor<\/code> or is <code>founder<\/code> of an organization<\/li><li>an article has a <code>author<\/code><\/li><li>A service is provided by a provider <code>provider<\/code> offered<\/li><li>a profile page has a person as <code>mainEntity<\/code><\/li><li>a content is <code>about<\/code> to a specific topic<\/li><\/ul><p>Not every possible Schema.org property is automatically meaningful. Only relationships that are real, visible, and maintainable are used.<\/p><h3 id=\"5-sameas-gezielt-einsetzen\">5. <code>sameAs<\/code> use purposefully<\/h3><p>Schema.org defines <code>sameAs<\/code> as a URL of a reference page that uniquely identifies the entity. Suitable are genuine official profiles or unique identification pages of the same person or organization.<\/p><p>Not suitable are:<\/p><ul><li>thematically similar articles<\/li><li>Directories with uncertain or outdated entries<\/li><li>Pages of a partner, simply because the brand is mentioned there<\/li><li>Search results or tracking URLs<\/li><li>Profile of another person with the same name<\/li><\/ul><p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/sameAs\">Schema.org \u2013 sameAs<\/a><\/p><h3 id=\"6-interne-verlinkung-als-sichtbare-beziehung-nutzen\">6. Use internal linking as visible relationships<\/h3><p>Internal links make relationships understandable for both humans and crawlers. A specialist article should link to the author&#8217;s profile. A person page should lead to relevant services and published content. References should link to the delivered service, without falsely making the client organization into its own entity.<\/p><\/div><\/section><section class=\"sw-section\" id=\"sw-section-7\"><header><span class=\"sw-eyebrow\">Guide \/ 07<\/span><h2>External validation and brand authority<\/h2><\/header><div class=\"sw-section-body\"><p>A website can describe its identity, but external sources help with verification. Relevant are for example:<\/p><ul><li>consistent official social and professional profiles<\/li><li>Customer and partner pages with correct mentions<\/li><li>Industry directories with well-maintained data<\/li><li>Interviews, guest articles and conference profiles<\/li><li>cited studies, datasets or methods<\/li><li>independent reporting<\/li><\/ul><p>Quantity is not automatically quality. A single professionally relevant profile with consistent information can be more valuable than many automatically generated directory entries.<\/p><p>External mentions must not be considered as <code>sameAs<\/code> may be misunderstood.
