Schema.org / Structured Data

Schema Deprecation Awareness (2023-2025)

Schema Type	Status	Data	Note
HowTo	DEPRECATO	Sept 2023	Non genera più rich results. Non usare.
FAQ	RISTRETTO	Aug 2023	Solo siti gov/health autorevoli.
SpecialAnnouncement	DEPRECATO	July 2025	Rimosso completamente.
VideoObject	ATTIVO	-	Supporta live streaming + key moments
Organization	ATTIVO	-	Sempre raccomandato
Product	ATTIVO	-	Con AggregateRating per e-commerce
BreadcrumbList	ATTIVO	-	Sempre raccomandato
Article	ATTIVO	-	Per blog/news

Regola: Mai raccomandare HowTo schema. FAQ schema solo per gov/health. Verificare sempre lo stato attuale su Google Search Central.

Organization Schema

// components/schema/organization.tsx
export function OrganizationSchema() {
  const schema = {
    '@context': 'https://schema.org',
    '@type': 'Organization',

      telephone: '+39-XXX-XXXXXXX',
      contactType: 'sales',
      availableLanguage: ['Italian', 'English'],
    },
  }

  return (
    <script
      type="application/ld+json"
      dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{ __html: JSON.stringify(schema) }}
    />
  )
}

Service Schema (per servizi di sviluppo)

// components/schema/service.tsx
export function ServiceSchema({ service }: { service: Service }) {
  const schema = {
    '@context': 'https://schema.org',
    '@type': 'Service',
    name: service.name,
    description: service.description,
    provider: {

    hasOfferCatalog: {
      '@type': 'OfferCatalog',
      name: 'Servizi di Sviluppo',
      itemListElement: [
        {

  return (
    <script
      type="application/ld+json"
      dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{ __html: JSON.stringify(schema) }}
    />
  )
}

SoftwareApplication Schema

// Per prodotti SaaS
export function SoftwareSchema({ product }: { product: Product }) {
  const schema = {
    '@context': 'https://schema.org',
    '@type': 'SoftwareApplication',
    name: product.name,

    <script
      type="application/ld+json"
      dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{ __html: JSON.stringify(schema) }}
    />
  )
}

FAQ Schema

DEPRECATION WARNING (Aug 2023): Google ha ristretto FAQ rich results solo a siti governativi e sanitari autorevoli. Per tutti gli altri siti, FAQPage schema non genera più rich snippets in SERP. Usalo solo se il sito rientra in queste categorie. In alternativa, struttura le FAQ come contenuto normale con heading H2/H3 — è comunque utile per GEO (AI Search).

// components/schema/faq.tsx
// NOTA: Genera rich results SOLO per siti gov/health.
// Per altri siti, il markup è comunque utile per AI search (GEO).
export function FAQSchema({ faqs }: { faqs: FAQ[] }) {
  const schema = {
    '@context': 'https://schema.org',
    '@type': 'FAQPage',
    mainEntity: faqs.map((faq) => ({
      '@type': 'Question',
      name: faq.question,
      acceptedAnswer: {
        '@type': 'Answer',
        text: faq.answer,
      },
    })),
  }

  return (
    <script
      type="application/ld+json"
      dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{ __html: JSON.stringify(schema) }}
    />
  )
}

BreadcrumbList Schema

// components/schema/breadcrumb.tsx
export function BreadcrumbSchema({ items }: { items: BreadcrumbItem[] }) {
  const schema = {
    '@context': 'https://schema.org',
    '@type': 'BreadcrumbList',
    itemListElement: items.map((item, index) => ({
      '@type': 'ListItem',
      position: index + 1,
      name: item.name,
      item: item.url,
    })),
  }

  return (
    <script
      type="application/ld+json"
      dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{ __html: JSON.stringify(schema) }}
    />
  )
}

Core Web Vitals Optimization

LCP (Largest Contentful Paint) < 2.5s

// 1. Preload hero image
// app/layout.tsx
export default function RootLayout({ children }) {
  return (
    <html>
      <head>
        <link
          rel="preload"

        />
      </head>
      <body>{children}</body>
    </html>
  )
}

// 2. Priority per immagini above-the-fold
import Image from 'next/image'

<Image
  src="/hero.webp"
  alt="Hero"
  width={1200}
  height={630}
  priority // Carica subito, senza lazy loading
  sizes="100vw"
/>

// 3. Font optimization
import { Inter } from 'next/font/google'

const inter = Inter({
  subsets: ['latin'],
  display: 'swap', // Evita FOIT
  preload: true,
})

INP (Interaction to Next Paint) < 200ms

// 1. Evita hydration blocking
// Usa Server Components di default

// 2. Per interazioni pesanti, usa useTransition
'use client'
import { useTransition } from 'react'

    <input 
      onChange={(e) => handleSearch(e.target.value)}
      className={isPending ? 'opacity-50' : ''}
    />
  )
}

// 3. Lazy load componenti non critici
import dynamic from 'next/dynamic'

const HeavyChart = dynamic(() => import('./Chart'), {
  loading: () => <Skeleton className="h-64" />,
  ssr: false,
})

CLS (Cumulative Layout Shift) < 0.1

// 1. Sempre dimensioni esplicite per immagini
<Image
  src="/image.jpg"
  alt="..."
  width={800}  // Sempre specificare
  height={600} // Sempre specificare
/>

// 2. Skeleton per contenuti dinamici
function PostList() {
  const { data, isLoading } = usePosts()
  
  if (isLoading) {
    return (
      <div className="space-y-4">
        {[...Array(5)].map((_, i) => (
          <Skeleton key={i} className="h-24 w-full" />
        ))}
      </div>
    )
  }
  
  return <>{/* actual content */}</>
}

// 3. Font con size-adjust
const inter = Inter({
  subsets: ['latin'],
  display: 'swap',
  adjustFontFallback: true, // Previene layout shift da font
})

// 4. Riservare spazio per ads/embeds
<div className="min-h-[250px]"> {/* Altezza minima riservata */}
  <AdComponent />
</div>
