We use it to define <strong>the activities related to search engine optimization that triggers digital experiences in physical environments and vice versa<\/strong>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Think of it. For example, if you are a manufacturer, you have to not only put your product <strong>on the shelf in the store<\/strong>, but also <strong>on the shelf for anyone browsing the Web for information<\/strong>. If you want to save time and money, <strong>you need a unique identifier for this product that will allow all your stakeholders fast and easy access to the data about it<\/strong> (price, description, availability, to mention just a few).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In other words, as search is inevitably permeating physical environments, so should SEO activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fortunately, together with the increasingly complex digital user behavior come the increasingly connected and mature technologies to live up to the empowered users&#8217; expectations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Enter GS1 Digital Link.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"gs1\">Making Barcodes Speak Linked Data (GS1 Digital Link)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>GS1 Digital link is developed by <span id=\"urn:local-annotation-489811\" class=\"textannotation disambiguated wl-organization\" itemid=\"http:\/\/data.wordlift.io\/wl0216\/entity\/gs1\">GS1<\/span>, a not-for-profit global supply chain standards organization working to improve the efficiency, safety and visibility of supply chains. <strong>GS1 is best known for the barcode &#8211; the single standard for product identification<\/strong>. As <a href=\"https:\/\/wordlift.io\/blog\/en\/gs1-digital-link-standard-future\/\">GS1 standards<\/a> aim to provide a framework that allows products, services, and information about them to move efficiently and securely across physical and digital channels, <strong>the organization started developing a standard that would \u201cextend the power and flexibility of GS1 identifiers by making them part of the web.\u201d<\/strong> &nbsp; &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, the standard is ready to facilitate the exchange and comparison of structured data and bridge the gap between usually incomplete data behind a scanned barcode. <strong>GS1 Digital Link promises to enhance the shopping experience for consumers<\/strong> by simplifying B2B data sharing and providing a standards-based unified way of describing products..<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Why would a user want to<strong> access a Product Knowledge Graph from a barcode<\/strong>?&nbsp; <br>He might want to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Learn more about the product<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Compare the product to other products<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Search for offers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Browse reviews<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Check compatibility<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Find technical specifications<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Very simply put, <strong>the GS1 Digital Link works based on providing a simple, standards-based structure for the data about a product<\/strong>. With <a href=\"https:\/\/wordlift.io\/digital-link-solution\/\">GS1 Digital Link<\/a>, information such as expiration dates, nutritional and medical product data, warranty registration, troubleshooting instructions, even social media links are becoming available with a single scan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1244\" height=\"557\" src=\"https:\/\/wordlift.io\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/01\/gs1-digital-link-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14524\" style=\"width:700px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wordlift.io\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/01\/gs1-digital-link-1.png 1244w, https:\/\/wordlift.io\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/01\/gs1-digital-link-1-300x134.png 300w, https:\/\/wordlift.io\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/01\/gs1-digital-link-1-1024x458.png 1024w, https:\/\/wordlift.io\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/01\/gs1-digital-link-1-768x344.png 768w, https:\/\/wordlift.io\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/01\/gs1-digital-link-1-150x67.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1244px) 100vw, 1244px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-small-font-size\">Image source: <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gs1.org\/sites\/default\/files\/19gsgl0234b_m01_digital_link_factsheet_2_pager.pdf\">GS1 Digital Link Flyer<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The GS1 Digital Link work is a treasure trove for anyone interested in publishing clean, structured and meaningful data on the Web.

In other words, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/wordlift.io\/blog\/en\/diving-deep-into-product-knowledge-panels\/\">all kinds of data derived from (and accessed from) one comprehensive Product Knowledge Graph<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To understand the value of a Product Knowledge Graph for e-commerce, let\u2019s have a look at a model. In 2018 researchers Turban, Outland et al. created the following model (in their book <a href=\"https:\/\/www.springer.com\/us\/book\/9783319587141\">Electronic Commerce 2018 A Managerial and Social Networks Perspective<\/a>):<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wordlift.io\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/01\/how-portal-works.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14527\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-small-font-size\">Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/affordable-ecommerce-textbook.com\/downloadslides.html\">Slides for Chapter 2&nbsp;<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, let\u2019s take it from this model and enhance it with the understanding and practice of Linked Data and e-commerce. The model will be pretty much the same, however the data that will feed a portal is data that you have control over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Person- &gt; 2.

This is what he did in 2010. With a bag of chips.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this talk, <strong>the Web&#8217;s inventor talks about the barcode as a universal way for retailers to \u201ctalk\u201d about products<\/strong> and the various other languages packages use to convey information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A decade later <strong>all these components can be integrated and put in a Product Knowledge Graph<\/strong>, benefiting both consumers and producers. As we saw GS1 Digital Link opens the possibilities for such integration. WordLift pushes the idea one step forward by helping producers, retailers and e-commerce businesses publish their data to allow any search engine or platform to consume it in a meaningful way for the user.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Executive summary This post is part of a series that dives deep into the power of data for e-commerce.
