GoodRelations Annotator:
Describe your business on the Linked Data Web for eCommerce.

With this on-line service, you can create a machine-readable description of your business and your range of products using the GoodRelations vocabulary for e-commerce. Such meta-data will be considered by leading-edge search engines and recommender systems. See here for more information on how to use this tool.

Note: We have just upgraded the GoodRelations Annotator so that it returns handy RDFa snippets instead of RDF files.
If you encounter any problems, please tell us at tools@ebusiness-unibw.org. The previous version is still available here.
