SpyFu vs Schema & Structured Data for WP: at a glance
What is SpyFu?
SpyFu spent autumn publishing site-audit articles; the feed still shows no product change.
Every recent SpyFu entry is a blog post. Since mid-September the topics have converged on site audits: e-commerce audits, running audits for clients, using audits to win clients, audit tooling, how often to audit and how to prioritise findings. None of the posts describes a change to the product.
What is Schema & Structured Data for WP?
Schema Pro 2.12.4 fixes a security issue in structured data on search results pages.
Schema Pro 2.12.4 leads with a security fix for how the plugin outputs structured data on search results pages.

Since 2.12.0 added dataset, profile, forum and Q&A schema types in August, every release has been cleanup.
SpyFu vs Schema & Structured Data for WP: editorial side-by-side
SpyFu
5.0MARKETING
SpyFu spent autumn publishing site-audit articles; the feed still shows no product change.
◆ Current state
Every recent SpyFu entry is a blog post. Since mid-September the topics have converged on site audits: e-commerce audits, running audits for clients, using audits to win clients, audit tooling, how often to audit and how to prioritise findings. None of the posts describes a change to the product.
◆ Where it's heading
The sustained audit series reads like content marketing around SpyFu's site-audit tool, but the feed carries no release notes for it, so readers cannot tell what the tool does now that it did not before.
◆ Prediction
More SEO how-to posts are the likeliest next entries; the feed gives no sign of product release notes.
Schema & Structured Data for WP
5.0MARKETING
Schema Pro 2.12.4 fixes a security issue in structured data on search results pages.
◆ Current state
Schema Pro 2.12.4 leads with a security fix for how the plugin outputs structured data on search results pages. It also makes Regenerate Schema safer to run and fixes how addresses and special characters appear in markup. Since 2.12.0 added dataset, profile, forum and Q&A schema types in August, every release has been cleanup.
◆ Where it's heading
The product follows a long cycle: one feature release that widens rich-result coverage, then months of output-accuracy and WordPress-compatibility fixes. Recent work keeps returning to output handling, and this is the first release in the post-2.12 run to lead with security.
◆ Prediction
Expect more point releases until the next minor version. Based on the 2.11 to 2.12 gap of about five months, 2.13 with new schema types is unlikely before early 2027.
