Session 005 closed with the icon question settled but the structured-data item on the checklist still open: Yoast’s free plan already produced Article, WebPage, Person, BreadcrumbList and WebSite schema, but the site had never told Yoast who it actually represents. This session filled that gap.
What was already there
Yoast’s Site representation setting was already switched to Organization, but the organization name and logo fields underneath it were empty. Yoast was quietly filling the gap with the WordPress site title and site icon as defaults, which meant the JSON-LD graph had no explicit Organization node at all — just the fallback values baked into other nodes.
What got done
Filled in the Organization name (“Duperval Consulting”) and Organization logo fields in Yoast’s Site representation settings. For the logo, used the same glasses-mark SVG-derived icon already serving as the site’s favicon, at its 1024×1024 export rather than the smaller 512×512 crop, since Yoast recommends 696×696 or larger. Verified the change by fetching the homepage’s JSON-LD script directly: the @graph now lists an Organization node with the correct name, logo URL and dimensions, alongside the pre-existing WebPage, BreadcrumbList, WebSite and ImageObject nodes.
What went wrong
Yoast’s site representation is either/or: a site is configured as an Organization or a Person, not both, which made the checklist’s “Organization & Person” phrasing slightly misleading. Laurent confirmed the site is a company rather than a personal brand, so only the Organization side needed filling in — no Person data was added, and none of the already-live Person schema (which Yoast generates separately, likely tied to the post author) needed to change.
Still open
Real meta descriptions for the two public pages and both earlier build-log posts are still outstanding — this post is the first one to ship with one. Other profile links (Facebook, X, etc.) in the same Yoast settings panel were left blank; nobody supplied any yet.
Who did what
Claude Sonnet 5 configured Yoast’s site representation, chose the logo asset, and verified the resulting schema graph. Laurent confirmed the site should be represented as an Organization rather than a Person.
