FAQ Schema Generator

FAQPage schema is structured data that marks a list of questions and their answers so search engines can read them as a set. This generator turns your question and answer pairs into valid FAQPage JSON-LD. Add each pair, copy the script tag, and paste it into the page where those FAQs already appear.

Runs entirely in your browser — nothing you type is uploaded.

Question 1

Word it exactly as it appears on your page.

Plain text. Quotes and symbols are escaped for you.

Question 2

Word it exactly as it appears on your page.

Plain text. Quotes and symbols are escaped for you.

Fill in at least one question and its answer to generate the markup.

How to

How to use the FAQ Schema Generator

  1. 1

    Add a question

    Type the question exactly as it appears on your page. Phrase it the way a visitor would ask it.

  2. 2

    Write the answer

    Paste the answer text. Keep it to the answer itself — no navigation links or calls to action.

  3. 3

    Add the rest

    Repeat for each pair. Two or three is enough to be useful; there is no upper limit.

  4. 4

    Copy and paste it in

    Copy the script tag into the head of the page holding those FAQs, then confirm with the Rich Results Test.

Examples

FAQ Schema Generator examples

Shipping question

Input
Q: "How long does delivery take?" A: "Orders ship within 24 hours…"
Output
{"@type":"Question","name":"How long does delivery take?"…}

Each pair becomes a Question object with an acceptedAnswer. The wording must match what is on the page.

Answer containing quotes

Input
A: He said "use the code SAVE10" at checkout.
Output
acceptedAnswer.text: "He said \"use the code SAVE10\"…"

Quotes, backslashes and newlines are escaped automatically. Hand-written JSON-LD usually breaks here.

Several pairs

Input
5 question and answer pairs
Output
{"@type":"FAQPage","mainEntity":[ … 5 items … ]}

All pairs belong in one FAQPage block. A page should carry a single FAQPage, not one per question.

Why use it

What the FAQ Schema Generator gives you

Escaping handled for you

Quotes, apostrophes, backslashes and line breaks are escaped correctly — the most common way hand-written FAQ markup breaks.

Valid structure every time

Output is serialised from a real object, so mainEntity, Question and acceptedAnswer nest the way the specification requires.

No limit on pairs

Add as many questions as your page genuinely has. Nothing is capped or gated.

Answer-engine ready

The same clean question-and-answer structure that search engines read is what AI answer engines quote from.

Private

Everything runs in your browser, so unpublished content stays on your machine.

Good to know

FAQ Schema Generator limitations

  • The FAQs must be visible on the page. Marking up questions a visitor cannot see violates Google's guidelines.
  • Since 2023 Google shows FAQ rich results mainly for well-known government and health sites, so most pages will not get the expanded listing.
  • FAQPage is for your own questions and answers. Pages where users submit competing answers should use QAPage instead.
  • Only one FAQPage block belongs on a page, no matter how many questions it holds.

Summary

FAQ Schema Generator in short

  • FAQPage markup groups question and answer pairs into structured data search engines can read.
  • The questions and answers must already be visible on the page.
  • Google now limits FAQ rich results to a narrow set of authoritative sites, though the markup still helps machines understand the page.
  • Use FAQPage for your own answers, QAPage for user-submitted ones.

FAQ

FAQ Schema Generator questions

What is FAQPage schema?

FAQPage schema is structured data marking a page as containing a list of questions with answers. It groups each pair into a Question object with an acceptedAnswer so search engines can read them as a set rather than as loose text.

Is FAQ schema still worth adding in 2026?

Yes, though for different reasons than before. Google restricted FAQ rich results to authoritative government and health sites in 2023, so expect no expanded listing. The markup still helps search engines and AI answer engines parse the page reliably.

Do the FAQs have to be on the page?

Yes. Google requires the questions and answers in your markup to be visible to visitors. Marking up FAQs that only exist in the code is a guideline violation.

How many questions should I include?

Include every FAQ genuinely on the page. There is no minimum or maximum, but do not invent questions to pad the markup — that hurts the page and risks a violation.

What is the difference between FAQPage and QAPage?

FAQPage is for questions you wrote and answered yourself. QAPage is for pages where visitors post a question and others submit competing answers, like a forum thread. Using the wrong one is a common mistake.

Can answers contain HTML?

Google accepts a small set of formatting tags such as <p>, <br>, <ul> and <a> inside an answer. Plain text is safer and more widely supported, so this generator keeps answers as text.

Does it work if my FAQs are in an accordion?

Yes, as long as the answers exist in the page's HTML rather than being fetched on click. Content hidden behind a toggle still counts as visible; content that does not exist until a request fires does not.

Can I use the same FAQs on several pages?

You can, but it is better not to. Duplicate blocks across many pages add no value and dilute what each page is about. Mark up the FAQs that genuinely belong to each page.

How do I check the markup is valid?

Paste the URL into Google's Rich Results Test to check eligibility, or the Schema Markup Validator for schema.org validity. Both report the exact line of any problem.
