About
Microdata is an 
HTML specification used to embed structured metadata within web page content by annotating elements with machine-readable attributes.
It uses attributes such as itemscope, itemtype, and itemprop to define entities and their properties directly in markup, supports vocabularies such as Schema.org, and is one of the structured data formats supported by Google alongside 
JSON-LD and 
RDFa.
The Open Graph protocol is a web metadata standard that defines how webpages are described as structured objects for use in social graphs and enables their consistent representation.
It specifies a set of HTML meta properties that start with "og:" (such as og:title, og:type, og:image, and og:description) to add semantic meaning to a page's content and control how that content should be represented.
