JSON-LD Schema Implementation

Every page on Cloutinet automatically generates structured data markup. Product pages use the following schema structure:

{
  "@context": "https://schema.org",
  "@type": "Product",
  "name": "[Product Name]",
  "description": "[Product Description]",
  "image": "[Product Image URL]",
  "offers": {
    "@type": "Offer",
    "price": "[Price]",
    "priceCurrency": "NGN",
    "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock",
    "seller": {
      "@type": "LocalBusiness",
      "name": "[Business Name]",
      "address": "[Location]",
      "telephone": "[Phone]"
    }
  }
}

Automatic SEO Title Generation

Product page titles are programmatically generated using this formula:

SEO Title = [Product Name] + " in " + [City] + " | " + [Business Name]
Example: "Rice 50kg Bag in Port Harcourt | Mary's Foodstuff Store"

Sitemap Generation

Cloutinet generates a dynamic XML sitemap that automatically includes every new business and product page within minutes of creation. This sitemap is submitted to Google Search Console for immediate crawling.
