Short answer: To add schema markup to a WordPress page, choose the schema type, fill in the details, copy the JSON-LD code and add it to the page head. Then test it in Google’s Rich Results Test. Check your SEO plugin first, so you do not add the same schema twice.
Why use a schema generator?
Short answer: Schema tells search engines exactly what a page is: an article, a service, a business or a list of questions. Writing JSON-LD by hand is easy to get wrong. A generator builds clean code from simple fields.
Real use case: You have a new service page and want Service schema. You fill in the name, description and provider, copy the code and add it to the page.
Benefits
- No coding needed
- Fewer syntax errors than hand-written code
- Helps search engines and AI tools understand the page
- Can make a page eligible for rich results, with no guarantee
Why use this tool
- Free, no signup.
- Private: the code is built in your browser
- Common types in one place
If Rank Math already adds the schema you need, edit that one instead of adding a second copy.

Which type to use

Test it

Common mistakes

- Fake reviews or ratings, which can lead to a manual action
- Expecting schema to boost rankings
FAQ
Will schema improve my rankings?
Not directly. It helps search engines understand a page and can make it eligible for rich results. It is not a ranking guarantee.
Can I add schema if Rank Math already adds it?
Check first. Conflicting schema of the same type can cause confusion.
Is my data sent to a server?
No. The code is generated in your browser.
