In short. Company details belong under Rank Math SEO → Titles & Meta → Local SEO, with Organization selected and the Local SEO module enabled.
Definition: As of October 2026, Rank Math documents company identity settings under Rank Math SEO → Titles & Meta → Local SEO in WordPress. Selecting Organization gives access to company details used in Organization structured data, machine-readable information describing a business on its website.
Key facts
- Rank Math's Organization schema guide places module activation under Rank Math SEO → Dashboard; the Local SEO module's Settings button also opens the identity settings.
- The Local SEO documentation separates Website Name, Website Alternate Name, and Person/Organization Name into distinct fields.
- The Titles and Meta documentation places Additional Profiles under Social Meta, where profile URLs supply the Organization schema's
sameAsproperty, which links the organization to its other profiles.
Which identity fields belong in Local SEO?
Rank Math's Local SEO guide describes Person or Company as the choice between operating a website as an individual or an organization. For a company, the Person/Organization Name field holds the company name. Website Name supplies the name property of WebSite structured data, which describes the website itself. Website Alternate Name is optional and supplies alternateName, for example an acronym or shorter website name.
The same documentation provides a Description field for the organization, a URL field for its website address, and a Logo selector using the WordPress media library. If the Local SEO logo is empty, Rank Math uses the Site Logo configured under Appearance → Customize → Site Identity → Logo as a fallback for Organization schema.
Additional Info holds more specific organization information. Legal Name records the registered name when it differs from the organization name. Other fields include Founding Date, VAT ID, Tax ID, and Number of Employees. The documentation says the Tax ID should match the country entered in the address.
Where do location and contact details go?
The Local SEO documentation includes Email, Address, Business Type, Opening Hours, and Phone Number. It specifies a two-letter country code in the address, such as US for the United States or FR for France.
Use Multiple Locations is a PRO feature that stores business locations in a separate WordPress content type. When enabled, it hides shared fields including Address, Business Type, Opening Hours, and Phone Number, because locations have their own details. Selecting Person also hides the Phone Number field in these settings.
The About Page and Contact Page selectors identify the corresponding pages on the website. For visible contact information, the guide documents this shortcode, which can be placed in page content:
[rank_math_contact_info show="name, email, map"]
The show attribute selects which details appear. Address Format separately controls how the address appears in the shortcode output.
How are changes saved and checked?
Rank Math's Organization schema guide instructs users to click Save Changes after completing the details. It then describes checking a page with Google's Rich Results Test: enter the website URL and select TEST URL. The result lists detected structured data and any errors or suggestions.
