This factor reports whether RankGear finds a DigitalDocumentPermissionType @type value in a page’s raw HTML source (1 = present, 0 = absent). It is a text-pattern check, not a full JSON-LD validation, so a match only signals that the string appears — not that the surrounding structured data is valid.

What it measures
This factor reports whether RankGear finds an @type value of DigitalDocumentPermissionType in the raw source of the page. DigitalDocumentPermissionType is a Schema.org enumeration used to describe the kind of permission granted on a digital document. The factor answers a single yes/no question: does that type string appear in the markup at all?
How RankGear measures it
RankGear searches the raw HTML for "@type": "DigitalDocumentPermissionType", allowing flexible whitespace around the colon and value and optionally accepting a schema: prefix. Matching is case-insensitive, so capitalization differences do not change the result. A match returns 1; no match returns 0.
What RankGear looks for
"@type": "DigitalDocumentPermissionType"
"@type": "schema:DigitalDocumentPermissionType"| Value | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 1 | The DigitalDocumentPermissionType type string was found in the raw HTML. |
| 0 | The type string was not found in the raw HTML. |
How to optimize it
Use DigitalDocumentPermissionType only for a valid digital-document permission enumeration, and only where the property genuinely expects that enumeration, with property values that match the visible content. Treat the 1/0 result as an observation about what is present in your markup rather than a target to chase — adding the string where it does not belong will register as present but will not describe your content accurately.
Important considerations
- The detector pattern-matches source text rather than validating a full JSON-LD graph.
- A matching string that sits outside valid JSON-LD can still produce a 1.
- Capitalization differences do not affect detection.
- Validate the complete structured data independently before relying on it.
- This is a prioritization signal that relates to positions within a measured result set — presence of the type does not by itself cause or guarantee any ranking.
