  • Runs in your browser
  • One-click copy

Structured data

Clean, machine-readable Q&A in seconds

If you have ever tried to hand-write structured data, you know it is fiddly in a way that punishes one misplaced comma. A single bracket out of place and the whole thing breaks, so most people either skip it or copy an example off a forum and hope.

Add your question-and-answer pairs, hit generate, and copy a valid FAQPage JSON-LD block. No coding, no syntax errors, no guesswork.

First, an honest heads-up

Adding FAQ schema will not get you an FAQ rich result in Google any more. Google retired them, and they have vanished from search for nearly every site. A lot of older guides still will not tell you that.

  • Google’s own Rich Results Test has dropped FAQ support, so validate at schema.org instead.
  • FAQPage JSON-LD itself is still valid markup, and still read by everything that is not Google’s rich-snippet pipeline.
  • We would rather say that plainly than sell you a feature that no longer exists.

The markup did not stop being correct. One consumer of it stopped showing a snippet.

So why bother with it now?

Because Google rich snippets were never the only audience for structured data. A labelled, machine-readable version of your Q&A is useful to everything else that reads the web.

  • Think of it less as an SEO rich-snippet play and more as future-proofing your content for AI and assistants.
  • Questions and answers in your schema should also be visible to real visitors on the page — do not invent Q&A just for the markup.
  • You do not need dozens. Usually three to eight real questions your visitors actually ask.

What the tool actually does

You add your pairs — as many rows as you need — hit generate, and it builds a valid FAQPage JSON-LD block instantly. One click copies the whole script block, ready to paste into your page’s head. That is the entire workflow.

  • Standards-compliant schema.org FAQPage output, the kind that passes validation cleanly.
  • Built in your browser — nothing you type is sent anywhere unless you choose to email yourself a copy.
  • Escaping and commas are handled for you, which is the part that breaks when it is done by hand.

    "acceptedAnswer": { ... }
  }] }
</script>
Copied verbatim from the generator above — that is the exact shape it hands back.

Three steps, and it is on the page

The whole thing is designed to be finished in one sitting, because structured data that sits in a draft helps nobody.

  • Paste it into the page’s <head>, or anywhere in the body — JSON-LD does not care where it sits.
  • Keep it in step with the visible page. If you edit an answer, edit the markup.
  • Validate at schema.org rather than Google’s Rich Results Test, which no longer covers FAQ.

Why Parix.ai gives this away

We build sites that get read correctly by machines as well as people, and structured data is part of that groundwork. These tools are the same checks we run for clients, put on a public page — which is the whole reason there is no paywall and no sign-up on any of them.

Who uses it

Anyone adding structured data without wanting to hand-write JSON. Site owners who read that FAQ rich results were retired and want to know whether the markup is still worth having. It is.

Questions answered

Frequently asked questions

Everything you might be wondering about the FAQ Schema Generator.

Will this get me FAQ rich results in Google?
No — and any tool that promises this is out of date. Google retired FAQ rich results: since 2023 they appeared only for a small set of authoritative government and health sites, and Google has announced it is dropping FAQ rich results entirely and removing FAQ support from the Rich Results Test and Search Console. Add FAQPage schema for valid, machine-readable structured data — not to win a rich snippet in Google Search.
Then is FAQ schema still worth adding?
It can be, for the right reasons. It is still valid schema.org structured data, and it gives AI answer engines, voice assistants, non-Google search engines, and your own tools (on-site search, chatbots) a clean, labelled version of your Q&A. Just set expectations correctly — the days of FAQ rich snippets lifting clicks in Google Search are over for almost everyone.
What is FAQ schema and JSON-LD?
FAQ schema marks up a page's questions and answers using the schema.org FAQPage type. JSON-LD (JavaScript Object Notation for Linked Data) is the recommended format — a small <script> block you add to a page that describes the content in a way machines can read.
Where do I paste the generated code?
Put the <script type="application/ld+json"> block anywhere in your page's HTML — the <head> is ideal. In WordPress you can add it via a custom HTML block, your theme's header, or an SEO plugin's schema field.
How do I check that my schema is valid?
Use the Schema.org validator at validator.schema.org — paste your code or URL and it confirms the FAQPage markup is valid and flags any errors. (Google's Rich Results Test is dropping FAQ support, so the Schema.org validator is the reliable choice for FAQs.)
Do the questions need to actually appear on the page?
Yes — best practice is for the same questions and answers to be visible to visitors on the page, not hidden or invented. Use real Q&A that matches your content.
Is this free and private?
Yes. The schema is built in your browser and nothing you type is sent anywhere, unless you choose to email yourself a copy.
How many questions should I include?
Add the real questions your visitors ask — usually 3 to 8 is plenty. Relevance matters more than quantity, and every answer should also be visible on the page.
What does an FAQ schema example (JSON-LD code) look like?
A minimal FAQPage example is: {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"FAQPage","mainEntity":[{"@type":"Question","name":"Your question?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Your answer."}}]}. This tool builds that exact FAQ schema code for every question you add and wraps it in a ready-to-paste <script> block.

A worked example

Real input, real output — so you know what to expect before you run it yourself.

Two shipping questions
Sample input
Q1: Do you ship overseas? A1: Yes, to [countries]. Q2: How long does delivery take? A2: [X] to [Y] working days.
Sample output
One <script type="application/ld+json"> block holding a FAQPage with two Question items, each with its acceptedAnswer, ready to copy. Any "<" in your text is written as <, so the block cannot break the page it is pasted into.
