## Check the consumer’s requirements

Yandex documents structured markup for several services and content categories. Its structured-data validator checks recognized markup and requirements used by its services. Correct Schema.org syntax alone does not establish that a service can use the data.

## Read the category guidance

Yandex’s guides cover areas such as products, recipes, software, organizations and media. Use the guide relevant to the page rather than borrowing Google’s property requirements.

## Use this as further reading

CheckMySchema’s Yandex content is reference guidance. It does not run Yandex service-specific checks or promise a particular snippet. Follow up in Yandex Webmaster when Yandex visibility is important to your site.
