So if you've read anything about AI SEO, you'll have heard the word Schema used, sometimes known as structured data.

In this episode, Tony Cosentino and I will demystify the schema jargon, show you where schema actually moves the AI SEO needle and give you some practical steps to implement it.

And don't worry, no technical degree is required.
