The types worth implementing

LocalBusiness, Service, FAQPage, BreadcrumbList, Article and Review. Those cover almost every rich result opportunity a service business can realistically earn.

Match the markup to the page

Structured data must describe content that is visibly on the page. Marking up reviews you do not display, or FAQs that do not exist, is a manual action waiting to happen.

Validate after every change

Run the Rich Results Test after publishing. Schema silently breaking during a redesign is one of the most common causes of lost rich snippets.
