Beginner's Guide to Schemafy: Schema Markup for Shopify Stores
Shopify stores can benefit greatly from implementing schema markup to help search engines better understand their website's content. Schemafy is a Shopify app that makes it easy for merchants to add schema markup to their online store. This beginner's guide will walk you through the installation, configuration, and usage of Schemafy to get started with schema markup.
Installation of the App
Installing Schemafy is easy and can be done directly from the Shopify app store by following these simple steps:
- Visit the Schemafy app page on the Shopify app store
- Click the "Install" button
- Follow the instructions to complete the installation process
Please note that the app is free for development stores and the subscription only starts once the store goes live. This allows merchants to set up the app and test it before launching their store.
Adding Schema to Your Online Store
Once you have installed Schemafy, you will see an option to select a theme to install the Schemafy extension in your theme. Simply select the theme you want to add the schema markup to and follow the steps to complete the setup.
First-Time Configuration
After the installation and setup, you will be redirected to a configuration wizard. Here, you will configure the schema markup for your online store. The following are the steps to configure the schema markup:
- Select the type of schema you want to enable. Schemafy offers the following options: All, Organization, Website, Webpage, Article, Breadcrumb, & Product Schema. We recommend enabling all types of schemas for best results. However, if you are an expert and know what you are doing, you can disable any types you don't need.
- Provide information about your organization and online store. We recommend at least providing the name and URL of your organization, which can be the same as your website. The more information you provide, the better chance you have of improving your website's search engine optimization.
- After providing the required information, the app will take care of the rest and configure the schema markup for your online store. You can always update this configuration from the settings page.
Schema Success!
Once you have completed the first-time configuration, your online store will now have schema markup. We recommend testing your store pages in Google's Schema Markup Testing Tool to make sure everything is working correctly. If you see any errors, don't hesitate to contact our expert support for assistance. Schema warnings are fine, but errors can impact your website's performance.
