Technical SEO FAQ · URL Architecture, Internal Linking & Information Architecture
How important are breadcrumbs for Technical SEO?
Breadcrumbs can help communicate site hierarchy to users and search engines.
Implement them as actual navigational links and, where appropriate, structured data.
The important distinction is that breadcrumb structured data describes a breadcrumb trail; it does not replace the actual internal linking architecture.
