Add sameAs Links So Assistants Can Identify You

AI Readiness Analyzer

What is this warning?

Your structured data names an entity but does not link it to anything else. sameAs points at the profiles that already identify you elsewhere, which is how an assistant resolves 'Example Corp' to the specific organisation you are rather than treating the name as a string it has never seen.

How to Fix This Issue

How to Fix It

The Problem

An organisation or person is declared with no external identity links:

{
  "@type": "Organization",
  "name": "Example Corp"
}

The Solution

Add sameAs pointing at profiles you control or that authoritatively describe you:

{
  "@type": "Organization",
  "name": "Example Corp",
  "sameAs": [
    "https://www.linkedin.com/company/example-corp",
    "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Example_Corp",
    "https://github.com/example-corp"
  ]
}

Why This Works

Disambiguation is most of the work in recognising an entity. Linking to identities that are already established saves an assistant from guessing which Example Corp you are.
