YundaDeskFAQ Schema Generator (JSON-LD)
FAQ schema is structured data that marks up question-and-answer content so search engines and AI engines can read it unambiguously. Enter your Q&A pairs below and get paste-ready JSON-LD — generated entirely in your browser.
At least 2 pairs recommended; answers must match the text visible on your page.

First, the honest part: FAQ rich results today
Since August 2023, Google officially limits FAQ rich results (the expandable Q&A entries in search results) to well-known, authoritative government and health websites — regular commercial sites no longer get that treatment even with valid markup. Any tool promising "add this and get rich results" is working from outdated information.
Why it's still worth adding
- AI engines and answer placement (AEO/GEO). ChatGPT, Perplexity and AI Overviews parse pages for retrieval; explicitly structured Q&A makes your content easier to understand, quote accurately, and cite — and Q&A is the content shape AI retrieval favors most.
- Search engines beyond Google. Bing and others keep their own handling and display logic for FAQ markup.
- Content discipline. Maintaining schema forces every page's Q&A to be explicit and self-consistent — foundation work that pays off in every channel.
Three hard rules (from Google's structured data guidelines)
- Answers must match visible page text. Putting content in schema that isn't on the page is structured-data abuse and can draw a manual action. Write the Q&A on the page first, then mark it up.
- One FAQPage per page. Multiple FAQPage blocks conflict; merge all pairs into a single mainEntity array.
- Only mark up actual FAQs. Product lists, reviews and forum threads belong to other schema types — don't force FAQPage onto them.
How to use the generated code
- Copy the code and paste it anywhere inside the page's
<head>or<body>(both work). - Make sure the page shows the exact same Q&A as visible text.
- Validate with Google's Rich Results Test (search.google.com/test/rich-results) or the Schema.org validator (validator.schema.org).

Frequently asked questions
Can I still get FAQ rich results with this markup?
For most commercial sites, no — since August 2023 Google restricts FAQ rich results to authoritative government and health sites. The realistic payoff of FAQ schema is AI-engine comprehension, other search engines, and content organization, not Google's rich result styling.
Should the JSON-LD go in the head or the body?
Either — Google confirms both placements work. Most teams use the head for manageability; injecting via a tag manager into the body is also supported.
Can schema answers be more detailed than the visible page text?
No. Structured data must faithfully reflect visible content. Adding information that isn't on the page violates Google's guidelines and can get your site's structured data ignored or manually penalized.
Does this tool store my questions and answers?
No. The code is generated locally in your browser — this page sends no network requests and your content never touches a server.
