## **📌 Implementation Tips** - Place this markup on the **profile page only**, not on all site pages. - Replace URLs, IDs, and counts dynamically if you have multiple profiles. - Test in **Google Rich Results Test** and **Search Console**. - Keep images in **accessible, indexable formats** (no blocked folders).
