List of organizations

For which sites

Organizations that people visit in person (e.g., cafes, hair salons).

What it adds to search results

Contains addresses, phone numbers, business hours, and ratings of organizations, as well as markers on the map. Formed from the data indexed by Search.

When a user searches for information about the location or sphere of activity of a particular organization, Search may show them a carousel of company cards that best match the query. A set of filters helps the user refine the query and get an even more relevant list of cards — for example, only organizations located nearby.

How to set it up

You have to provide information about the organization in order to create an answer. There are several ways to do this.

Using Schema.org markup

Yandex processes markup schemas inherited from Organization and Place. Yandex supports schemas that are links (marked with a “+” sign).
