Answer first, context after
Put a direct two-to-three sentence answer near the top, then expand. Buried answers get skipped by both readers and models.
Structure is a ranking and citation signal
Clear headings, defined entities, dates, authorship and FAQs make extraction reliable — and citation more likely.
FAQs

Do we need schema?
It helps. Article, FAQ and Organization markup make your content easier to interpret.
