How to Generate FAQ Schema Markup
- 1
Add your question-answer pairs
Type your frequently asked questions and their answers into the form fields. Start with the most important questions first. Use the Add Question button to create additional pairs as needed. - 2
Review the SERP preview and fix validation warnings
Check the Google SERP preview to see how your FAQ will appear in search results. Review any validation warnings about empty fields, duplicate questions, or answer length issues and fix them before copying the markup. - 3
Copy or download the JSON-LD and add it to your page
Copy the generated JSON-LD code and paste it into a script tag in your HTML head section. Alternatively, download it as a JSON file. Use Google Rich Results Test to verify the markup after deployment.

About This Tool
FAQ schema markup (FAQPage structured data) tells search engines that your page contains a list of questions and answers. When Google recognizes valid FAQ schema, it can display your questions as expandable rich results directly in search results, significantly increasing your page's visibility and click-through rate. The vocabulary is part of the open Schema.org standard maintained by Google, Microsoft, Yahoo, and Yandex; the per-search-engine eligibility rules live in Google Search Central's FAQPage guidelines.
This tool generates valid JSON-LD markup following the Schema.org FAQPage specification — Google's preferred and recommended format, distinct from the older Microdata and RDFa syntaxes. Add your question-answer pairs, preview exactly how they will appear in Google search results, and copy the ready-to-use code. Built-in validation catches common issues like empty fields, duplicate questions, and answer length problems before you deploy. Once you paste the markup into your HTML <head>, double-check it with Google's Rich Results Test, the official schema.org validator, and our own Structured Data Tester for a fully local pre-deploy validation.
The 2023 narrowing — what changed and what to do. In August 2023 Google announced that FAQPage rich results (the expandable accordion under search listings) would be limited to authoritative government and health websites. The schema itself is still valid, still parsed by Google, and still triggers rich results in Bing and Yandex in many regions. It also still signals topical depth to AI search engines like ChatGPT search, Perplexity, Claude with web search, Bing Copilot, and Google AI Overviews — all of which preferentially cite well-structured Q&A content. So while the visual SERP treatment is rare for general sites today, the markup is far from useless: it's a citability signal for AI-era search and a future-proof bet if Google reverses the narrowing (it has reversed similar narrowings before).
Combine FAQ schema with other structured data types using the Schema.org Generator, optimize your page metadata with the Meta Tag Generator, build the matching XML sitemap with the XML Sitemap Generator, configure crawler access with the Robots.txt Generator, preview your final SERP appearance with the SERP Preview tool, and run a final pre-deploy check with the Structured Data Tester for a complete technical SEO setup.
How It Compares
Yoast SEO generates FAQ schema but only inside WordPress and only on paid plans for advanced FAQ blocks. RankMath has a similar WordPress-only approach. Merkle's Schema Markup Generator handles FAQPage but lacks a live SERP preview and gates exports behind email signup. SEMrush's Schema Generator is part of a paid suite. Most free alternatives output outdated Microdata format instead of JSON-LD, which is Google's recommended format.
This tool generates clean JSON-LD following the latest Schema.org FAQPage specification. It includes a live SERP preview showing exactly how your FAQ will appear in Google, real-time validation for content quality, bulk CSV import for large FAQ lists, and one-click copy or download. Everything runs locally in your browser with no data sent to any server, no signup, no plan tier — works on any platform, not just WordPress.
