Top search providers, include Bing, Google and Yahoo!, have agreed to work together to create a single schema, so webmasters could use to explain their sites. The new join forces will be known as schema.org initiative. By using a single schema for all search engines, it will help them to understand structured data behind web pages.
Today, each search providers recognize so many different sites and data behind those sites, as schema.org website explains that “Many sites are generated from structured data, which is often stored in databases. When this data is formatted into HTML, it becomes very difficult to recover the original structured data.” The schema.org initiative will share all schemas for webmasters from around the world, so they can use them to easily explain their sites in simpler vocabulary.
