Knowledge Graph Settings

To get started, click on Search Appearance in the All in One SEO menu.

On the Global Settings tab, scroll down to the Knowledge Graph section.

You’ll see fields for Website Name and Alternate Website Name.

The Website Name field will default to the name you’ve entered in the Site Title field under Settings » General in WordPress. You can replace it with another name if you wish.

The Alternate Website Name field can be used to enter any alternate name you have for your site.

Knowledge Graph settings on the Global Settings screen

Google may use the Website Name or Alternate Website Name in mobile search results.

Person or Organization

Next, you’ll see is Person or Organization.

Use this option to select whether your website or blog is for a person or for an organization. Based on the selection here, additional fields will be displayed as detailed below.

Organization Settings

If you selected Organization you will see the following fields:

In the Name field, enter the name of your organization or business
In the Phone Number field, enter the phone number for your business you’d like listed on search engines
In the Contact Type field, select the type that best describes the Phone Number you entered
In the Logo field, upload the logo for your organization or business. The image MUST be a minimum size of 112px by 112px and must be in JPEG, PNG, SVG, WEBP, or GIF format. The image URL MUST be crawlable and indexable. If you don’t set a logo here, All in One SEO will use the logo set in your theme (if there is one).

NOTE:
Phone numbers are formatted in a specific way that’s required by search engines. When you enter your phone number, you can type it as you normally would with the area code (and leading zero if there is one), then the number.

All in One SEO will format it as an international number in the source code, adding the plus sign and country code and removing any leading zero from the area code.

Person Settings

If you selected Person you will see the following fields:

Choose a Person setting in Schema Markup settings

In the Choose a Person field, choose the primary owner for your site from the list of users. Only users with the role of Author, Editor, or Administrator will be listed here
You can also select Manually Enter Person from the drop down and then complete the Name and Logo fields
In the Name field, enter the name of the primary owner for your site
In the Logo field, upload an image of the primary owner for your site. The image MUST be a minimum size of 112px by 112px and must be in jpg, png, or gif format. The image URL MUST be crawlable and indexable.
