FAQ Schema Generator
Generate valid FAQ schema markup in JSON-LD format for Google rich results. Add your questions and answers — or paste them in bulk — and get structured data code ready to copy into your HTML. Supports unlimited FAQs, live preview, and Google-compliant formatting.
Paste Q&A pairs and they'll be parsed automatically. Or add them manually below.
From questions to rich results.
Create Google-compliant FAQ structured data in three steps.
Add Questions and Answers
Enter your FAQ pairs one by one, or paste them in bulk using the "Q:" and "A:" format. The generator accepts unlimited questions and validates that every entry has both a question and a complete answer before generating the schema code.
Preview the JSON-LD Code
The tool generates valid JSON-LD structured data in real time as you type. The output follows Google's recommended FAQPage schema specification, including proper @context, @type, and mainEntity markup. Preview the code before copying to ensure accuracy.
Copy and Paste into Your HTML
Copy the generated JSON-LD code with one click and paste it into your page's <head> section or before the closing </body> tag. The structured data works on any website — WordPress, Shopify, Next.js, static HTML, or any CMS that allows custom code injection.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is FAQ schema markup?
FAQ schema markup is structured data in JSON-LD format that tells Google your page contains frequently asked questions with answers. When implemented correctly, Google may display your FAQs directly in search results as rich snippets — expanding your listing with dropdown questions and answers that increase visibility and click-through rates.
How do I add FAQ schema to my website?
Generate the JSON-LD code using this tool, then paste it into your page's <head> section or before the closing </body> tag. On WordPress, use a Custom HTML block or an SEO plugin. On Shopify, add it to theme.liquid. The JSON-LD format works on any platform that allows custom code injection — no template modifications needed.
Does Google still show FAQ rich results in 2026?
Yes, Google still supports FAQ rich results, though eligibility was narrowed in August 2023. Well-known, authoritative websites and government/health information pages are most likely to receive FAQ rich results. Even without visible rich results, FAQ schema helps Google understand your content structure and topical coverage.
How many FAQs should I include in the schema?
Include 5 to 10 genuine FAQs per page. Each question must appear visibly on the page and have a comprehensive answer (50-150 words). Google may ignore schema with too many low-quality FAQs. Focus on questions your audience actually asks — use our People Also Ask Scraper to discover real user queries.
Can I use HTML formatting in FAQ schema answers?
Yes, Google supports limited HTML in FAQ schema answers including anchor links (<a>), ordered and unordered lists (<ol>, <ul>), bold (<b>), and italic (<i>). This allows you to add clickable links and formatted lists within your rich result answers, making them more useful and engaging for searchers.
What is the difference between FAQ schema and HowTo schema?
FAQ schema (FAQPage) is for pages with questions and answers. HowTo schema is for step-by-step instructions that guide users through a process. Use FAQ schema when your content answers common questions about a topic. Use HowTo schema when your content teaches users how to complete a specific task.
Where should I place JSON-LD code on my page?
Place the JSON-LD <script> tag in the <head> section or just before the closing </body> tag — both positions work. Google's crawler processes JSON-LD regardless of its position in the HTML. The <head> placement is slightly preferred because it ensures the structured data is parsed early during page rendering.
How do I test if my FAQ schema is valid?
Use Google's Rich Results Test (search.google.com/test/rich-results) to check if your FAQ schema is eligible for rich results. For deeper validation, use the Schema Markup Validator at validator.schema.org. Both tools accept either a live URL or raw JSON-LD code, and will flag any errors or missing fields.
