Most people know that Wikipedia is an important resource and has become the encyclopedia of the internet.  From football statistics, to corporate information, it contains over 6.9 million articles on the English language version.  According to Similarweb, it was the 8th ranked Global website with around 4 billion website visits.

The size and dominance make Wikipedia a crucial tool for companies because it enhances credibility, online visibility, and brand authority. Being listed on Wikipedia helps a brand signal trustworthiness to both users and search engines. Those aspects also make it very important for Search Engine Optimization (SEO) as well.
