Google rich results this unlocks

ParkingFacility is a structural type. It does not produce a rich result on its own.

Its value comes from combining it with a primary type whose markup earns a rich result (Article, Product, Event, and so on). ParkingFacility becomes the trunk that the primary type branches off viamainEntityorbreadcrumb. Include it on every page as the backbone of your markup.

Common ParkingFacility mistakes

Mistakes that pass validation but silently fail to earn rich results or mislead consumers walking the graph. Avoid these and your markup will be ahead of most sites in the wild.

  1. 01

    ParkingFacility without capacity or pricing

    Wrong
    ParkingFacility with only name and address
    Right
    Populate maximumAttendeeCapacity for lot size and Offer entries for pricing

    The useful signals for parking discovery are capacity and price. Without them the entity barely differs from a generic Place.
