Has JSON-LD Attorney

This factor reports whether RankGear finds an @type value of Attorney in the page’s raw source. It returns 1 when the string is present and 0 when it is not — a presence check on the source text, not a validation that the JSON-LD graph is well-formed.

What it measures

This factor reports whether RankGear finds an @type value for Attorney in the raw source. It is a signal that the page declares an Attorney entity in structured data — the schema type used to describe an individual lawyer or a legal professional or firm.

How RankGear measures it

RankGear searches the raw HTML for "@type": "Attorney", allowing flexible whitespace around the colon and value and optionally allowing a schema: prefix. Matching is case-insensitive, so capitalization differences do not affect detection. When the pattern is found the factor is 1; otherwise it is 0.

What RankGear looks for

<script type="application/ld+json">
{
  "@context": "https://schema.org",
  "@type": "Attorney",
  "name": "Jane Doe",
  "jobTitle": "Attorney",
  "telephone": "+1-555-0100",
  "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "addressLocality": "Austin" }
}
</script>

How to optimize it

Use the Attorney type for a real legal professional or firm, and describe them with accurate services, credentials, location, and contact data. Treat this factor as an observation of whether the markup exists, not a target to chase for its own sake: add the schema only where it truthfully describes the page’s subject.

Important considerations

• RankGear pattern-matches source text rather than parsing or validating a JSON-LD graph.
• A matching string that sits outside a valid JSON-LD script can still produce a 1.
• Capitalization differences do not affect detection — matching is case-insensitive.
• All structured data must match visible, truthful content on the page.
• Presence of this markup correlates with pages in a measured result set; it does not by itself cause or guarantee any ranking.
