Schema Markup Validator FAQ

Common questions about this free tool, answered clearly.

Will schema markup get me rich results?

Schema makes you eligible for rich results, but it does not guarantee them. Google decides based on quality and the schema type. Some types, like FAQ rich results, were retired in 2026, though the markup still helps search and AI understand your page.

Which schema format should I use?

Use JSON-LD. Google recommends it and it is the easiest format to add and maintain. It sits in a single script tag instead of being mixed into your HTML.

Does schema help with AI search?

Yes. Structured data helps AI tools understand your entities, authors and facts, which improves how accurately they describe and cite you. It is one of the clearest signals you can give them.
