Google rich results this unlocks

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

Common TelevisionStation 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

    TelevisionStation for the broadcast service

    Wrong
    Mixing TV broadcast details with the business entity
    Right
    BroadcastService for frequencies, channels, call signs; TelevisionStation for the operating business

    Same reason as RadioStation vs BroadcastService; keep business and broadcast separate.
