If you reading this blog, the chances you know exactly what you’re looking for. Surf for https://schema.org , Google has partnered with Microsoft and Yahoo to offer rich snippet (we call it Markup language!) to help search engines understand our websites even better.

How to decode the markup?

Now copy and paste the entire microdata in a text editor (note++), or any editor that detects HTML language. To work with this microdata, the only place where you would be making changes is the “itemprop” line. “itemprop” is the property attribute of an item, do not touch this property name while editing, rather can change the elements that is defined by this property.

Example: “Mom’s World Famous Banana Bread” can be changed “Chilli Chicken recipe”.
