They explain:<\/p>\n\n<p>Semantic Web research, now in its second decade, has been successful in encouraging people to publish data on the Web in structured, linked, and standardized ways. The success of what has now become the <a class=\"wl-entity-page-link\" title=\"Web of Data and Web of Entities\" href=\"https:\/\/semantico.com.br\/blog\/en\/Vocabulario\/web-of-data-and-web-of-entities\/\" data-id=\"http:\/\/data.wordlift.io\/wl0221\/entity\/web-of-data-and-web-of-entities\">Web of Data<\/a> can be seen by the large number of triples available in the <a href=\"https:\/\/lod-cloud.net\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/lod-cloud.net\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Linked Open Data<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.linkedlifedata.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"http:\/\/www.linkedlifedata.com\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Linked Life Data<\/a>, and Open Government initiatives.<\/p>\n\n<p>However, this increase in data renders many of the established assumptions inadequate and provides a host of new research challenges.<\/p>\n\n<p>In stark contrast to the early Semantic Web applications that dealt with small ontologies and hand-made data sets, the new Web of Data comes with a plethora of contradictory worldviews and contains incomplete, inconsistent, incorrect, changing, and opinionated ones in the making.<\/p>\n\n<p>This information comes not only from academic sources and reliable institutions, but is often created, copied or translated by the community.<\/p>\n\n<p>In short, the data is confusing and difficult to use. This special issue is dedicated to this confusion and how to deal with it. The approaches in this document can be broadly classified into two classes: first, to provide guidelines or best practices to avoid the mess in the first place, and second, giving users an infrastructure and techniques to build useful applications despite the mess.  <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p>In short, the data is messy and difficult to use.<\/p><cite>S.

What needs to be done is to think about the market you are in, which entities are part of this domain (field of knowledge) and create content around it.<\/p>\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">But what is this so-called entity?  <\/h4>\n\n<p>Well, it is simple: these are the basic themes of your market. Shall we take an example?<\/p>\n\n<p>My market is SEO, and in this domain, that of website optimization, we have:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Search Engine;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Website development;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>On-page <a class=\"wl-entity-page-link\" title=\"Otimiza\u00e7\u00e3o para motores de busca\" href=\"https:\/\/semantico.com.br\/blog\/en\/Vocabulario\/otimizacao-para-motores-de-busca\/\" data-id=\"http:\/\/data.wordlift.io\/wl0221\/entity\/otimizacao-para-motores-de-busca\">SEO<\/a>;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Link Building;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Content Marketing;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Search Engine;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>AEO;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Algorithms;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>and much more&#8230;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>These are the entities, specific themes, basic, of a market (adapting a basic concept of the Semantic Web), that we always use but that need to be explained and defined to our audience, who are often laymen on the subject.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"so_this_is_the_strategy_we_call_semantic_seo\"><\/span>So this is the strategy we call Semantic SEO!<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n<p>The Semantic Web, as I said, is a Web of meaning.
