Named entity in schema (GEO)

Organization/Person/WebSite JSON-LD must include a name field.

Pass condition in our engine: Schema includes a name on a primary entity type.

This GEO check is part of SEO-GEO scoring 2.2.1, last updated 2026-09-18. About 90 percent of the evaluation runs on the HTML we crawl, so you can verify the same pass condition with a free report.

1. Problem description

A type without a name is an empty node. Entity clarity scoring looks at that name and whether it appears in the title and H1.

2. Most common causes

  • JSON-LD copied from a tutorial with placeholder omitted.
  • name is nested incorrectly so parsers miss it.

3. How to fix it

  1. Set name on Organization, Person or WebSite to your real brand or person.
  2. Use the same spelling everywhere.
