Schema markup is structured data that helps search engines understand your content and enables rich results — enhanced listings showing star ratings, FAQs, and prices directly in Google Search.

JSON-LD Implementation

Google recommends JSON-LD as the preferred format. Add it as a script tag in your page head. JSON-LD is easier to maintain because it is separate from your HTML content.

Essential Schema Types

Every website needs Organization, WebSite, and BreadcrumbList. Service businesses add LocalBusiness. Blogs add Article. E-commerce adds Product. FAQ pages add FAQPage.

Validate Your Schema

Use Google's Rich Results Test after implementation. Check Search Console Enhancements to see which rich results are eligible and which have errors.
