What Google does with WebSite markup
Google uses this to pick the site name shown above each result. Put it on the home page, keep the name consistent with the page title and logo, and add an alternate name (such as an acronym) if people know the site by one. The sitelinks search box it once powered was retired in 2024, so a SearchAction is no longer needed.
Fields Google looks for
