JSON Schema with Multiple Affiliations

[seo_columbus]

I have an attorney that has multiple affiliations that I want to mark up with JSON schema. What is the best way to do this?...

Option #1:

"affiliation": "Example 1, Example 2",

Option #2

"affiliation": "Example 1",
"affiliation": "Example 2",

Or, is there another way to do this that I haven't considered?

Just to clarify, my recommended format is not exactly Option 1, but it is close. They need to be sure to encase each individual 'affiliation/example' within it's own set of quotation marks, not just separated by a comma. Without doing so, search engines will see all the affiliations as a single entity rather than individual affiliations. Also, be sure to include all 'affiliations/examples' within brackets [ ]

See how Moz's set up their 'sameAs' schema? This is the format that should be followed.

Yes, I agree with Joe. Option 1 is the way to go as option 2 would most likely rewrite the existing Affiliation schema.

Hello,

Your best option would be to follow the format below:

"affiliation": ["example 1", "example 2", "example 3"]

Don't forget to include a comma (,) after the closing bracket if there is another property following this.

Hope this helps!
