Recommended Schemas Checker — do you have the foundational types?
Three schema types form the baseline every site should have: Organization, WebSite and BreadcrumbList. This check looks for all three. Together they tell engines who runs the site (Organization), describe the site itself and can enable a sitelinks search box (WebSite), and clarify where each page sits in your structure (BreadcrumbList) — the foundational markup a well-optimised site provides.

In short: Beyond page-specific markup, a few foundational schema types should be present site-wide: Organization (the publisher), WebSite (the site), and BreadcrumbList (the navigation path).
What does the recommended schemas check look for?
It checks for the three foundational schema types every site benefits from having. Specifically:
Organization — identifies who runs the site (name, logo, URL), supporting your entity and brand presence.
WebSite — describes the site itself and can enable a sitelinks search box in Google results.
BreadcrumbList — shows each page's position in the site hierarchy, often surfaced as breadcrumbs in results.
All three present passes; one or two present is a warning; none of the recommended types is a fail.
How is it evaluated, and how is it scored?
GEObubbly checks the page (and site) for Organization, WebSite and BreadcrumbList schema. It's a core, scored Structured Data check that runs directly against the markup.
Why the recommended schemas matter for SEO and GEO
Beyond page-specific markup like articles or products, three schema types form the baseline every site should provide, because each describes a different layer of your presence. Organization identifies the entity behind the site — name, logo, URL — underpinning your entity and brand recognition. WebSite describes the site as a whole and, with the right markup, can enable a sitelinks search box directly in Google's results. BreadcrumbList declares where each page sits in your hierarchy, which Google often surfaces as breadcrumb trails in the search listing and which helps engines understand your site structure. Together they give engines a clear, consistent picture of who you are and how your site is organised — a foundation that page-level schema builds on. They're typically site-wide, so adding them once benefits every page. For GEO, this structural clarity helps AI engines map your site and attribute content to the right entity.

FAQ
Three foundational types benefit virtually every site: Organization, which identifies who runs the site and underpins your entity and brand recognition; WebSite, which describes the site as a whole and can enable a sitelinks search box in Google; and BreadcrumbList, which declares each page's place in your hierarchy and often appears as breadcrumb trails in search results. Beyond these baselines, page-specific types like Article, Product, FAQ and Review add value where relevant. Starting with the three foundational types gives engines a clear picture of your identity and structure that everything else builds on.
