Our player supports JSON-LD tagging (“JavaScript Object Notation for Linked Data”). JSON-LD tagging is by default enabled in the playout settings.
JSON-LD tags provide structured data: a standardized format for providing information about a page. Using JSON-LD helps search engines to better understand the content of your page, resulting in a better (video) SEO.
When using JavaScript embeds, a JSON-LD block is injected in the <head> of the page. When using iframe embeds, however, the JSON-LD block is injected in the <head> of the iframe.
The JSON-LD block contains either a schema.org VideoObject, an schema.org AudioObject, or a schema.org MediaObject, depending on the clip’s media type.
