# Schema generator for AI citation

Build valid **FAQPage, Article and Organization** JSON-LD in your browser. Nothing you type leaves the page.

Questions and answers

Word each question exactly as the visible heading on your page. A mismatch between schema and visible text is the single most common reason FAQ markup gets ignored.

Answer

## Output

<script type="application/ld+json">
{
  "@context": "https://schema.org",
  "@type": "FAQPage",
  "mainEntity": []
}
</script>

Paste into `<head>`. Every value must match what is visible on the page: schema that contradicts the page is worse than none.

How it works

1. 1Pick a schema type
2. 2Fill in the fields that matter
3. 3Copy the script tag into your page

What you get

- Three typesFAQPage, Article and Organization.
- Fields that earn attributionsameAs, dateModified, author and publisher, prompted first.
- Runs in your browserNo server call, no analytics on what you type.

## Frequently asked questions

- ### Does schema markup help AI cite my page?  
It helps, but less than the writing does. Structured data tells an engine what a page is and who published it, which supports entity resolution and attribution, worth 4 points for the schema itself plus most of the 7-point entity clarity check in the CrawlRadar model. It cannot rescue a page whose content is unquotable.
- ### Which schema type should I use?  
Use FAQPage for a page of questions and answers, Article or BlogPosting for editorial, and Organization once, sitewide, in your layout. A page can carry more than one: an article with an FAQ section legitimately has both.
- ### Why is there no HowTo schema?  
Google retired HowTo rich results in September 2023, and no answer engine documents reading HowTo markup, so the generator does not offer it. For a procedure, write the steps as a numbered list under a heading that names the task: a crawler and a reader both get the order from the list itself.
- ### Does my JSON-LD have to match the visible page?  
Yes, exactly, and this is the most common way schema fails. If your FAQPage lists a question that is not visible on the page, or an answer worded differently from the visible one, the markup is at best ignored and at worst treated as manipulation. Write the page first, then describe it.
- ### Is anything I type here sent to a server?  
No. This generator runs entirely in your browser. There is no API call and no analytics on the field contents. You can verify it by opening your network tab while you type.
- ### What is sameAs and why does it matter so much?  
sameAs is an array of URLs pointing at other profiles for the same entity: your LinkedIn company page, Wikipedia article, Crunchbase profile, GitHub organisation. It is how an engine confirms you are a real, known entity rather than an anonymous site making claims. Only list profiles that exist; a sameAs pointing nowhere is a claim an engine can check and find false.

## What “citation-tuned” means here

It means the form prompts for the fields that decide whether an engine can attribute your page, rather than every field the vocabulary allows. Three fields do most of the work, and generic generators tend to hide all three.

- **`sameAs`** :  the corroboration signal. Without it, an `Organization` block is an unverifiable claim about yourself.
- **`dateModified`** :  whether an engine can tell your page is still current. Half of the freshness check.
- **`author` and `publisher.logo`** :  a named human and a real publisher, which is the difference between a document with an author and a document with none.

## Where to put each type

| Type         | Put it on                       | Common mistake                                                                    |
| ------------ | ------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Organization | Every page, from your layout    | Omitting sameAs, which is the field that makes it worth anything                  |
| Article      | Posts and guides                | A dateModified that moves on every deploy, which is a trust signal you spend once |
| FAQPage      | Pages with visible Q&A headings | Questions in the schema that do not appear on the page                            |

## How to install it

1. Fill in the form and copy the `<script>` tag.
2. Paste it into the page’s `<head>`, or anywhere in the body. Both are valid, and a template partial is usually the right home.
3. Confirm every value matches the visible page. This is the step people skip and it is the step that decides whether the markup counts.
4. Re-scan with the [GEO score checker](/tools/geo-score-checker) to confirm the block parses. Invalid JSON-LD is dropped silently: no warning, no error, just gone.

## What schema cannot do

It cannot make an unquotable page quotable. Structured data describes content; it does not create it. A page whose sections open with three sentences of setup will lose the 13-point answer-first check no matter how complete its `Article` block is, and that check alone outweighs schema and FAQ markup combined.

Marking up a page you have not first made worth quoting is the most common way to spend an afternoon on GEO and move the score by four points.
