Google rich results this unlocks

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

Common TaxiStand 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.

    Using TaxiStand for a taxi operator

    Wrong
    TaxiStand for the taxi company itself
    Right
    TaxiService (Service subtype) for the operator; TaxiStand for the curbside pickup location

    TaxiStand is a physical place; TaxiService is the intangible business. Distinguish them.
