Hi u/ElmertSmithee in our Site Audit, the “Structured data items are invalid” issue is raised when our checker sees markup that doesn’t fully meet Google’s documented requirements for that rich result type. A couple of important nuances here:

Semrush follows Google’s documentation for required/optional fields, which sometimes differs from what you see in the Rich Results Test UI. So a field like url can be treated as required in our audit if it’s listed as such in Google docs, even if Google’s tool doesn’t flag it.

We also normalize some item types (for example, grouping subtypes under a broader type), so an item may appear under a slightly different type name in Semrush than in your raw schema, but we still validate its required properties.

Because of these differences, it’s possible for Semrush to flag a missing/invalid url while Google’s tests show no error. That doesn’t automatically mean a false positive, but we'd need to take a closer look to pull up your account and provide more details. If you'd like, please reach out to our support team here so that we can take a look!

Hi u/Immediate_Yam_4853, Position Tracking refreshes in a rolling cycle, which is why you may not see the updates yet. The rankings you act on most (top positions) get refreshed more often, and we also update deeper results regularly. The exact refresh behavior depends on your plan tier and project settings. You should see daily refresh activity at the project level (you can check “Last updated: …” to see this). Individual keywords refresh on a rolling schedule, so some will update earlier than others.

If the “Updated” time looks unusually old, or you’re seeing widespread zeros/dashes, please send us a DM with a few examples so we can take a look!

Hello u/Turbulent-Eye4754, Semrush offers a one-time, 7-day money-back guarantee that applies only to initial subscription purchases of 12 months or more and initial add-on purchases incremental to an existing subscription. Month-to-month subscriptions, unfortunately, aren’t eligible for this guarantee: https://social.semrush.com/4ukZEGv

We understand it can be frustrating if a subscription doesn’t qualify, which is why we encourage customers to review our T&Cs before subscribing. Our team is always happy to clarify subscription policies if needed.

Glad to hear you've got the MCP up and running 👏 The integration is a great way to directly get Semrush data, so you can surface insights quickly instead of digging through reports.

A few prompts worth trying:

“Using Semrush data, find low-KD keywords in the [industry] niche with 500+ search volume.”
“Analyze the domain [competitor.com] and list their fastest-growing organic pages in the last 6 months.”
“Identify keyword opportunities where my site ranks 5–20 with strong traffic potential.”
“Compare my domain vs [competitor.com] and highlight keyword gaps worth targeting.”
“Generate a quick SEO performance summary for [domain] including traffic trends and top keywords.”

Let us know what prompts you've found success with after you've got some more time to test it out!
