- Runs in your browser
- Nothing uploaded
- Free, no sign-up
Build valid FAQPage JSON-LD structured data from your Q&A pairs.
Updates as you type. Switch between pretty JSON, compact JSON, and ready-to-paste
<script> tag. Eligible for Google's rich-result rendering when
the same Q&A is visible on the page.
FAQ Pairs
How to Use FAQ Schema Generator
- Add a pair. The tool starts with two empty cards. Click + Add FAQ (or press Ctrl/Cmd + Enter) to add more - focus jumps to the new question field.
- Type your question and answer. Output updates after a 150 ms debounce, so fast typing doesn't thrash. Cards with empty fields are silently dropped - only pairs with both filled count.
- Pick a format. Pretty JSON for readability, Compact JSON for minimal bytes (good for inline pages), or Script tag for paste-into-HTML use. Toggle anytime - the same data re-renders.
- Read the stats line. Shows question count, total characters, longest question and answer lengths, dropped empty pairs, and warns if any answer is below 50 characters (Google often skips very short answers).
- Copy to clipboard. The Copy button uses the modern Clipboard API with an
execCommandfallback for older browsers and locked-down contexts. - Or download a file. Pretty/Compact saves as
faq-schema.json; Script tag saves asfaq-schema.html. Drop straight into your page or pipeline. - Paste into your page. Put the script tag anywhere inside
<head>or<body>- same page as the visible Q&A. Google requires the visible text to match the schema text.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is FAQ schema?
FAQPage is a Schema.org type that marks up a page as containing a list of questions and their authoritative answers. When Google parses it and trusts the page, your FAQ entries can appear as expandable rich snippets in search results – taking up more screen real estate and improving click-through rates.
Where do I paste the generated code?
Paste the <script type="application/ld+json"> tag inside <head> or anywhere in <body> of the page that displays the FAQ. Google requires the visible Q&A text to match the schema text – if they differ, the page can lose rich-result eligibility.
How many FAQs should I include?
Google requires at least 2 to be eligible for rich results, with no documented upper limit. Most well-performing FAQ pages have 5-15. Each answer should be substantial enough to be useful (the tool warns when answers are under 50 characters – Google often skips very short ones).
What’s the difference between Pretty, Compact, and Script formats?
Pretty JSON is indented with two-space breaks – easy to read and diff. Compact JSON is one minified line – fewer bytes, useful when inlining in heavily-templated pages. Script is the Pretty JSON wrapped in a <script type="application/ld+json"> tag – paste straight into HTML without further edits.
Will this guarantee rich snippets in Google?
No tool can guarantee that. Google chooses which structured-data pages get rich treatment based on overall page quality, content relevance, schema validity, and adherence to its quality guidelines. Valid schema is necessary but not sufficient.
How does the tool handle HTML in answers?
JSON.stringify escapes embedded quotes automatically, and Schema.org Answer text is plain text (not HTML). Inline HTML in your answer becomes literal text in the schema – so <b>bold</b> would appear as the characters “<b>bold</b>” in the snippet, not bolded text. Keep answers as plain prose.
What does the “longest A” stat mean?
It’s the character length of your longest answer. Useful sanity check: very long answers (over a few hundred characters) tend to be truncated in rich snippets, so you might want to tighten them. Very short answers (under 50 chars) get a warning because Google often skips them entirely.
Does this work offline?
Yes. Once the page is in your browser, three static files (HTML, CSS, JS) provide everything. Disconnect the network and the tool keeps generating schema. There are no analytics scripts, no third-party fetches, no cookies set.
Is my FAQ data uploaded to a server?
No. All schema construction runs in your browser via plain JavaScript on the DOM input values. The text you type never leaves the device – no network calls fire on input, on Copy, or on Download. You can verify in DevTools → Network: empty after the initial three-file page load.
