- Counts
- A failure costs points in its category.
Impact is importance multiplied by the confidence tier’s weight — SPECIFICATION 1.0, RESEARCH 0.7, EMERGING 0.3, EXPERIMENTAL 0.1. Two rules backed by the same class of evidence therefore always carry the same weight, which is what makes the score reproducible rather than hand-tuned.
Questions about this rule
- Does SCHEMA_ORGANIZATION_EXISTS affect my score?
- Yes. It is an importance 6 rule at RESEARCH confidence, so a failure costs 6 × 0.7 points of impact in the Structured Data category before that category is normalised to 100.
- What does RESEARCH confidence mean?
- Backed by large-sample study or industry research, not a specification. Confidence is a declared tier rather than a per-rule number, so every rule backed by the same class of evidence carries the same weight - which is what makes the score reproducible instead of hand-tuned.
- How do I check SCHEMA_ORGANIZATION_EXISTS on my own site?
- Paste your URL into the box above and it runs only this rule, usually in a couple of seconds. It is also included in the Structured Data checker and in a full scan.
