Series

Series is a Intangible subtype. A Series in schema.org is a group of related items, typically but not necessarily of the same kind. See also [[CreativeWorkSeries]], [[EventSeries]].

Full example of schema.org/Series json-ld markup

The markup is verified as valid with Rich Results Test from Google.

schema.org/Series

<script type="application/ld+json">
{
  "@context": "https://schema.org",
  "@type": "Series",
  "name": "Example Series"
}
</script>

Minimal valid version

The smallest markup that still produces a valid Series entity. Use it as the floor. Reach for the advanced example above when you want search engines and AI agents to understand more about your content.

schema.org/Series (minimal)

<script type="application/ld+json">
{
  "@context": "https://schema.org",
  "@type": "Series",
  "name": "Example"
}
</script>

Google rich results this unlocks

Series 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). Series becomes the trunk that the primary type branches off viamainEntityorbreadcrumb. Include it on every page as the backbone of your markup.

Common Series 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.

01
Using bare Intangible instead of the specific Series subtype
Wrong
```
"@type": "Intangible"
```
Right
```
"@type": "Series"
```
Specific subtypes carry domain context consumers use; reach for the narrowest applicable type.
