Voice search is gaining in popularity as more searches are being conducted on mobile devices than PC’s. It is more important than ever to ensure that the content on your website is being translated into the language of search engines (schema.org). Voice search relies on the knowledge graph connections that schema markup enables, and as more websites use schema markup, voice search will become a more valuable tool.
