This factor reports whether RankGear finds a JSON-LD @type of Nursing in a page’s raw HTML source (1 = present, 0 = absent). It is a string match on the source text, not a validation of the structured-data graph, so a hit confirms the label appears — not that the schema is complete or correct.

What it measures
This factor reports whether RankGear finds an @type value of Nursing in the raw page source. Nursing is a schema.org type used to describe a nursing service or medical specialty, and its presence signals that the page declares itself as that kind of entity via JSON-LD markup.
How RankGear measures it
RankGear searches the raw HTML for the string "@type": "Nursing", allowing flexible whitespace around the colon and an optional schema: prefix on the type value. Matching is case-insensitive, so capitalization differences do not change the result. Any match returns 1; no match returns 0.
What RankGear looks for
"@type": "Nursing"
"@type":"schema:Nursing" <!-- optional schema: prefix, flexible whitespace, any case -->| Value | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 1 | A @type of Nursing was found in the raw source. |
| 0 | No Nursing type string was found. |
How to optimize it
Use the Nursing type only for a genuine nursing service or medical specialty, and back it with accurate practitioners, credentials, services, location, and contact details. Every property should reflect content a user can verify on the page itself. Because RankGear only checks for the presence of the type string, treat a 1 as confirmation that the label exists — not as proof the markup is valid — and only add it where the type honestly describes the page.
Important considerations
- The detector pattern-matches source text; it does not parse or validate a JSON-LD graph.
- A matching string that sits outside valid JSON-LD (for example, in a comment or a code sample) can still produce a 1.
- Capitalization differences do not affect detection, since matching is case-insensitive.
- Validate the complete structured data independently — a schema validator confirms correctness this presence check cannot.
- This is a correlation-based prioritization signal within a measured result set, not a cause of ranking; the presence of the type does not make a page rank.
