Knowledge Graph
Definition
A Knowledge Graph is a semantic data model that organizes information about entities (such as people, brands, places, or topics) and the relationships between them.
Search engines and AI systems use knowledge graphs to understand context, identify connections, and deliver more relevant and structured results. Instead of focusing only on keywords, businesses are recognized as entities within a broader information network.
