Question About Schema
@Lane Houk , I've implemented product schema on a web page with physical products and am now getting this error in SEMrush. Does this completely negate the effectiveness of having the schema on the page? This company doesn't have individual reviews / ratings for their products.

What the error means Google requires Product structured data to include at least one of these three properties: • aggregateRating — average review score • offers — price/availability info • review — individual review(s) Your markup has none of them, so the product rich result is invalid and won’t appear in search. How to fix it Add an offers block (easiest and most common) to your Product schema. Example JSON-LD to drop into the page’s <head> : <script type="application/ld+json"> { "@context": "https://schema.org/", "@type": "Product", "name": "Your Product Name", "image": "https://yoursite.com/image.jpg", "description": "Short product description", "sku": "SKU123", "brand": { "@type": "Brand", "name": "Your Brand" }, "offers": { "@type": "Offer", "url": "https://yoursite.com/product-page", "priceCurrency": "USD", "price": "49.99", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "itemCondition": "https://schema.org/NewCondition" } } </script>

SEO/AEO Industry News Analysis - May 2026
Here is my latest research on the big moves and news in our industry for the last 4-6 weeks. This takes all of the happenings in the industry and distills all that news down to the most important few things you should be aware of and possibly focus on right now! Key Developments 1. Google's llms.txt Contradiction Creates Confusion The Split: Google Search and Chrome Lighthouse are sending contradictory signals about llms.txt files. - Google Search Team: Published optimization guide stating llms.txt is NOT needed for generative AI features. John Mueller compared it to the obsolete keywords meta tag. - Chrome Lighthouse 13.3: Added experimental "Agentic Browsing" audit that CHECKS for llms.txt presence and flags server errors. The Truth: llms.txt helps browser-based AI agents parse site structure (functionality), NOT search rankings (discovery). Mueller's framework: "discovery vs. functionality." Citation: [[https://www.searchenginejournal.com/googles-llms-txt-guidance-depends-on-which-product-you-ask/575431/]] 2. Google AI Mode Hits 1 Billion Monthly Active Users Usage Data Released (First Time Ever): - 1B+ monthly active users globally - Queries doubled EVERY QUARTER since launch - Average AI Mode query is 3x longer than traditional search - Follow-up queries up 40%+ monthly - 1 in 6 searches are multimodal (voice, image, video) - Image-based searches up 40%+ month-over-month Behavior Shifts: - Searches becoming more conversational and iterative - Planning and decision queries changing fastest - Top categories: Creative content, media, education, fashion, food, health, tech, travel, productivity, development Citation: [[https://www.searchenginejournal.com/google-shares-first-ai-mode-usage-data-after-one-year/575443/]]

@Amanda Hamilton - have you done a live Google search in incognito mode to check against what GSC and SEMRush are telling you?

@Amanda Hamilton also I would tend to believe GSC more than anything else, but I would definitely check against live search results to see
