Overview

About the FAQ Schema Markup Generator

FAQ Schema (FAQPage structured data) is machine-readable code implemented via JSON-LD that tells search engines your content is an official Question & Answer page.

When eligible, Google displays expandable FAQ accordions directly below your search result, significantly increasing your organic screen real estate and click-through rates.

This free tool lets you easily add custom questions and answers, auto-formats standard Schema.org JSON-LD syntax, and enables testing with Google official Rich Results tool.
