FAQ schema (FAQPage JSON-LD) labels your question-and-answer pairs so engines can extract them without guessing. It is one of the highest-leverage AEO moves — and, in our data, missing on 93% of sites.
Steps
- Identify the real questions on the page and write a concise answer for each.
- Add FAQPage JSON-LD listing each question and its accepted answer.
- Make the schema answers match the visible content exactly — never mark up content that is not on the page.
- Validate with a rich-results tester.
- Keep it updated as your questions and answers change.
Why it works
FAQ schema turns your Q&As into machine-readable answer candidates. Because so few sites use it, adding it is a fast way to become eligible for answers competitors are not.
