In sameAs schema, link the external profiles that officially confirm your identity: your LinkedIn company page, primary social accounts you actively maintain, Wikidata or Wikipedia entries if they exist, and the major industry profiles genuinely under your control. Skip abandoned accounts, unverified listings and directory pages you would not defend as officially yours.
What sameAs actually does
It is an identity assertion: these URLs and this entity are the same thing. Knowledge graphs and language models use it to merge signals: your reviews there, your posts here, your facts everywhere, into one confident entity. Done well, it accelerates knowledge panels and sharpens how AI assistants describe you. Done carelessly, it merges you with noise.
The profiles that earn a slot
For an Organization: LinkedIn, the social platforms you actively run, Google Business Profile URL, Crunchbase where accurate, Wikidata, YouTube channel, and the one or two industry databases that matter in your niche. For a Person entity: LinkedIn, active social handles, author pages on publications, Google Scholar or ORCID where relevant. The test for every candidate: does this URL confirm identity, and would you publicly claim it?
What to leave out
Dead accounts with three posts from 2019, aggregator listings you never claimed, review sites where the URL is a search result rather than a profile, and anything with wrong facts you cannot edit. sameAs is not a link list; every weak entry dilutes the assertion’s confidence.
Placement and hygiene
Put the array inside your Organization schema on your entity home page, and mirror the loop: each listed profile should link back to your site. Review quarterly: platforms die, handles change, and a sameAs pointing at a stranger’s recycled username is worse than none.
How many sameAs links is ideal?
Quality caps it naturally: five to twelve strong, verified profiles beat twenty questionable ones. When you run out of URLs you would defend, stop.
Does sameAs help with AI assistants specifically?
Yes: it is one of the cleanest machine-readable identity signals you control, and consolidated identity is exactly what makes models describe you confidently instead of hedging.
sameAs wiring is part of Entity SEO, deepening into AI Knowledge Graph and paying off in Knowledge Panel Management.
