Free Schema Markup Generator

Generate valid schema.org JSON-LD for Article, Organization, Local Business, Product, Person, Breadcrumb & How-to. Fill the form, copy the code, paste it into your page. It removes ambiguity for anything that parses the page and keeps you eligible for the rich results Google still supports — it is not a way to get cited in AI answers.

Fill the required fields: Headline, Article URL, Author name

JSON-LD — paste into your page's <head>
<script type="application/ld+json">
{
  "@context": "https://schema.org",
  "@type": "Article"
}
</script>

Tip: validate the result with Google’s Rich Results Test. Only add aggregateRating if the reviews are real — fake ratings violate Google’s policy.

Which schema type fits your page

Match the markup to what the page actually is, not what you wish it ranked for. One page usually needs one primary type, sometimes paired with a Breadcrumb:

  • Article — blog posts, news, guides. Names the author, publisher, and publish/modified dates.
  • Product — a single item with a price, brand, SKU, and (only if genuine) an aggregate rating.
  • LocalBusiness — a storefront or service with an address, phone, price range, and opening hours.
  • Organization or Person — your brand or an author entity, with sameAs links to social and profile URLs.
  • HowTo — a step-by-step procedure; Breadcrumb — the navigation trail to the page.

What each type unlocks in search

Structured data doesn’t change rankings directly — it makes you eligible for richer listings, and only for the ones Google still runs. Google’s current search gallery lists Article, Breadcrumb, Local business, Organization, Product and Profile page, among others; FAQ and HowTo are no longer in it (developers.google.com/search/docs/appearance/structured-data/search-gallery, read 2026-09-23). So Product markup can surface price and stock; LocalBusiness feeds local listings and map results; Breadcrumb replaces the raw URL with a readable trail; Article clarifies authorship and freshness. HowTo still parses cleanly and does no harm, it just wins no Google result format any more. The sameAs field on Organization and Person states which real-world organization or author the page is about, so anything parsing it has one unambiguous answer instead of a guess — no AI engine documents it as a citation factor.

Why JSON-LD, not Microdata

This generator outputs JSON-LD in a single <script> block — Google’s recommended format. Unlike Microdata or RDFa, it lives separately from your visible HTML, so you never touch page templates or risk breaking layout, and you can drop, edit, or remove a block without hunting through markup. Blank fields are stripped automatically, so the output stays valid even when you only fill the essentials.

Frequently asked questions

What is schema markup and why does it matter?

Schema markup (structured data) is code, usually in JSON-LD, that describes your page to search engines and AI assistants — what is an article, who is the author, what is the price, what are the steps. What it reliably does is remove ambiguity for anything that parses the page. It also keeps you eligible for the rich results Google still supports: Article, Breadcrumb, Local business, Organization, Product and Profile page are all in Google’s current search gallery (read 2026-09-23). FAQ and HowTo are not — HowTo rich results went away in 2023 and Google ended FAQ rich results on 7 May 2026. Treat schema as machine-readability, not as a way to get cited in AI answers.

Where do I put the generated code?

Paste the entire <script type="application/ld+json"> block anywhere inside your page’s HTML — the <head> is ideal, but the <body> works too. Add it to the specific page the data describes (e.g. the Article markup goes on that article’s page).

Is the JSON-LD valid and Google-approved?

The generator outputs clean schema.org JSON-LD in the format Google recommends. After pasting it, confirm it parses with the Schema Markup Validator at validator.schema.org, which covers every schema.org type. Google’s Rich Results Test only covers the types that still have a rich result, so Article, Breadcrumb, Local business, Organization and Product will report there and flag missing recommended fields, while a HowTo block will report nothing — Google retired that rich result in 2023.

Should I add an aggregateRating to my Product?

Only if those ratings are real and come from genuine reviews. Inventing star ratings to win rich snippets violates Google’s structured-data policies and can trigger a manual action. Leave the rating fields blank unless you have authentic reviews to back them up.

Does structured data help with AI search (AEO/GEO)?

Nobody can promise that, and we will not. No AI engine documents structured data, or the sameAs property, as something it uses to decide what to cite. Google states that structured data is not required for its generative AI features and that there is no special markup to add (AI optimization guide, last updated 2026-07-10, read 2026-09-23). Microsoft is the one operator that claims a benefit, saying schema helps its AI systems read content with more confidence for Copilot and AI answers in Bing (Microsoft Advertising blog, 2025-10-08, read 2026-09-23). OpenAI and Perplexity publish nothing either way, and a May 2026 difference-in-differences study by Ahrefs (an SEO tool vendor) found no citation uplift from adding schema — though every page it measured was already cited heavily, so it says nothing about pages AI has not found yet. What structured data verifiably does is remove ambiguity: it states which organization published the page, who wrote it, when it was updated, what the price is. That is worth having whether or not an engine uses it.
