At a glance

When the user wants to optimize for entity recognition, Knowledge Graph, or entity-based SEO.

  • Wants to optimize for entity recognition
  • SKILL.md covers Scope, What Is an Entity?, Why Entity SEO Matters and Entity Signals (Content Best…, plus 6 more sections
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md
  • Knowledge Graph

What it does

Entity SEO is an agent skill from kostja94/marketing-skills. When the user wants to optimize for entity recognition, Knowledge Graph, or entity-based SEO. Also use when the user mentions "entity SEO," "entity optimization," "Knowledge Graph," "Knowledge Panel," "entity signals," "brand entity," "entity linking," "entity relationships," or "entity-first content." For structured data, use schema-markup.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.7k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Marketing & SEO, covering Schema markup, Knowledge graphs and Diagrams. The repository describes itself as: Agent Skills for Marketing — SEO, Social, Influencer & More. 160+ open-source skills for SEO, content, 40+ page types, paid ads, channels, and strategies. Add project context… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Wants to optimize for entity recognition
  • Knowledge Graph
  • Entity-based SEO
  • The user mentions entity SEO

Example prompts

  • “entity SEO,”
  • “entity optimization,”
  • “Knowledge Graph,”
  • “/entity-seo”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 8dd89c5. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • semrush.com
    • searchengineland.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Entity SEO loads about 1.7k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 89 tokens; SKILL.md has 682 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~89
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.7k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SEO: Entity SEO

Guides entity-based SEO—making your brand, product, and authors recognizable as distinct entities in search engines' knowledge systems. Google moved from keyword-matching to meaning-based understanding (Hummingbird, RankBrain, BERT, MUM); entity understanding is central to how search processes queries. Content structured around entities can receive ~3.2× more visibility in AI-powered search. References: Semrush, Search Engine Land.

When invoking: On first use, if helpful, open with 1–2 sentences on what this skill covers and why it matters, then provide the main output. On subsequent use or when the user asks to skip, go directly to the main output.

Scope

  • Entity definition: Singular, unique, well-defined things (person, place, organization, product, event)
  • Entity vs keyword: Entities = underlying concepts; keywords = text strings
  • Knowledge Graph: Google's entity database; powers disambiguation and related concepts
  • Implementation: Schema (Organization, Person); entity signals in content; consistency across platforms

What Is an Entity?

An entity is a thing or concept that is singular, unique, well-defined, and distinguishable—e.g. person, place, organization, product, event. Entities have:

AttributeMeaning
Unique identity"Apple Inc." ≠ "apple (fruit)" despite same word
AttributesFounding date, location, industry
RelationshipsConnections to other entities (e.g. Apple Inc. → Steve Jobs, iPhone)

Entity SEO = optimizing so search engines can identify, categorize, and connect your brand/product/author within the knowledge graph. Keywords are ambiguous; entities maintain consistent meaning across contexts.

Why Entity SEO Matters

  • Search evolution: Google uses entities to understand intent, not just match phrases
  • Knowledge Graph: Billions of entities and relationships; disambiguation, related concepts
  • AI search: Entity-optimized content ~3.2× more visible in AI results
  • E-E-A-T: Entity signals support Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, Trust. See eeat-signals
  • GEO: AI Overviews, Copilot, Perplexity cite entities; clear identity improves citation. See generative-engine-optimization

Entity Signals (Content Best Practices)

PracticePurpose
Clear brand/product nameConsistent naming; avoid confusion with similar entities
Author identityPerson schema; author bio; link to author page
Organization identityOrganization schema site-wide; logo, sameAs
Citable paragraphsEach block understandable on its own; supports AI extraction
ConsistencySame name, description, logo across website, social, directories

Schema for Entity SEO

Organization
  • Placement: Minimum—homepage; Optimal—root layout / global component (layout.tsx, _document, global header) so it appears on every page. Do not confine to About page; About uses AboutPage schema. See schema-markup for full placement table.
  • Required: @id, name, url; add logo, sameAs (social, Wikidata)
  • Optional: description, address, contactPoint; use most specific type (LocalBusiness, SoftwareApplication, etc.) when applicable

@id: Use stable URL (e.g. https://example.com/#organization) for entity linking across pages. Link Organization ↔ WebSite on homepage for sitelinks searchbox.

Show full SKILL.md (273 more words)Show less
Person
  • Use: Author pages; Article author; team members
  • Properties: name, url; affiliation (Organization); sameAs (LinkedIn, Twitter)
  • @id: Enables entity linking; e.g. https://example.com/author/jane/#person

See schema-markup for full VideoObject, Article, Product, etc.; Organization and Person are core for entity SEO.

Knowledge Panel & Knowledge Card

FeatureDescriptionObtainability
Knowledge PanelEntity info (brand, person, place) in SERPWikiData, partnerships; most sites cannot directly obtain
Knowledge CardTop-of-SERP semantic answerSame as Knowledge Panel

Actions (limited control):

  • Claim: Google Business Profile; suggest updates when available
  • Consistency: Same brand name, description, logo across all platforms
  • Entity Home: Authoritative About page as primary reference
  • WikiData / Wikipedia: Can support Knowledge Panel generation

See serp-features for Knowledge Panel in SERP context; multi-domain-brand-seo for Hub-Spoke entity consistency.

Entity & Multi-Domain / Brand

When using multiple domains (Hub-Spoke):

  • Consistency: Same brand name, description, logo across Hub and Spoke
  • Entity Home: Authoritative About page on Hub as primary reference
  • Schema: Organization with subOrganization for related entities
  • Entity confusion: Avoid legacy brands, sub-brands, directories diluting brand perception

See multi-domain-brand-seo for full strategy.

GEO & AI Citation

Entity signals strengthen GEO citation:

  • Direct-answer format + entity signals = clearer AI extraction
  • Citable paragraphs with clear brand/product/author identity
  • Distribution: Website, YouTube, forums, Reddit—consistent entity identity across platforms

See generative-engine-optimization for full GEO strategy.

Output Format

  • Entity audit (brand, product, author identity gaps)
  • Schema (Organization, Person; @id placement)
  • Consistency checklist (name, logo, description across touchpoints)
  • Knowledge Panel (claim if eligible; suggest updates)
  • schema-markup: Organization, Person; @id for entity linking
  • eeat-signals: E-E-A-T; author bio; Person schema
  • generative-engine-optimization: GEO; entity signals for AI citation
  • serp-features: Knowledge Panel, Knowledge Card; SERP context
  • multi-domain-brand-seo: Entity & Knowledge Panel; Hub-Spoke consistency
  • about-page-generator: Entity Home; authoritative brand reference
