Features
The generator covers every field Google cares about for articles: headline, description, author (Person or Organization), date published and modified, featured image, article URL, section, and publisher details with logo. It outputs clean, validated JSON-LD wrapped in a ready-to-paste script tag, with one-click copy and JSON download.
Benefits & Use Cases
Article structured data makes your content eligible for Top Stories carousels, enhanced headlines and date display in search results — all of which lift click-through rates. Publishers use it to establish authorship signals and help Google understand paywalled or frequently updated content.
Tips
Use the exact headline shown on the page, keep dateModified current whenever you update the article, and make sure the image URL meets Google's size guidelines (at least 1200px wide). Validate every page with Google's Rich Results Test before publishing.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Article schema?
Article schema is structured data (JSON-LD) that tells search engines your page is an article, along with its headline, author, publish date and image. It makes the page eligible for rich results like Top Stories.
Where do I put the generated code?
Paste the script tag into the <head> section of your article page, or just before the closing </body> tag. It must appear on the article page itself, not only on the homepage.
Is the publisher logo required?
Google recommends a publisher logo (at least 60x60px, in an ImageObject) for full Article rich-result eligibility, especially for news. The generator includes it whenever you provide a logo URL.
Will Article schema improve my rankings?
Schema doesn't directly boost rankings, but rich results increase visibility and click-through rate, which brings more qualified traffic. It also helps Google correctly attribute authorship and dates.
