Description
The SEO Video Premium addon generates XML sitemaps dedicated to videos and adds VideoObject schema.org markup to Yoast SEO pages, signaling to Google the videos hosted on your WordPress site (YouTube, Vimeo, self-hosted) for indexing as a rich result. It’s built for people who produce video content, run a blog with tutorials, or operate a course website and want to show up in search with a thumbnail and duration directly on the SERP.
