        "text": "For each page, pick a primary schema type that matches the *main purpose* of that URL, then optionally nest it inside `WebPage` and relate it back to `Organization`/`LocalBusiness`. Avoid mixing multiple competing primary types on a single page.\n\nSearch engines want a clear answer to “what is this page about?” Per-page JSON-LD should reinforce that answer rather than introduce ambiguity.\n\nKey factors:\n- **Content intent:** Informational (Article, BlogPosting, FAQPage, HowTo) vs commercial (Product, Service, LocalBusiness).\n- **Interactive elements:** Use `QAPage` instead of `FAQPage` if users can add answers.\n- **Location context:** For local services, combine `Service` or `LocalBusiness` with `areaServed` and city.\n- **Uniqueness:** Don’t copy the same entity details onto unrelated pages.\n\nDecide the primary schema type page-by-page, document that mapping, and keep your JSON-LD minimal but unambiguous.\n\nThis keeps your structured data aligned with how you actually want each URL to surface in search.",
