What is article schema generator?

Article schema is structured data that tells search engines who wrote a page, when it was published and who stands behind it. It can help your content be understood and shown with the right details.

This generator writes the JSON LD code for you. You paste it into the page, and you do not need to learn the format.

How to use the article schema generator

  1. Choose the type and fill in the details of the article.
  2. Press Generate.
  3. Copy the code into the head or body of the page and test it.

How the article schema generator works

Your inputs are put into a JSON LD object using schema.org properties: headline, description, image, datePublished, dateModified, mainEntityOfPage, author and publisher. Empty fields are left out. Headlines are cut to 110 characters, the recommended limit.

Worked example

A blog post with a headline, an author and a published date creates a BlogPosting object of about 20 lines.

Common uses of the article schema generator

  • Blog posts and guides.
  • News and magazine pages.
  • Adding author details for trust.
  • Fixing missing dates in search results.
  • Preparing a template for writers.

Tips and common mistakes

The data in the schema must match what is visible on the page.

Update the modified date only when you make a real change.

Background: what to know before you rely on it

Structured data is a shared vocabulary called schema.org that major search engines support. Google uses it to understand entities such as authors and organizations, and sometimes to show richer results. Article markup is simple, but quality matters: accurate dates, a real author and a clear publisher add trust, especially for topics where expertise matters. Avoid marking up content that is not on the page, and keep the markup in sync when you edit the article. Check Search Console for structured data warnings after you publish.

Private, free and fast

This tool runs entirely in your browser. What you type or choose is not uploaded to a server and is not saved after you close the page, which keeps it fast and private. It is free to use as often as you like. See more in all seo tools, or browse the full list of tools.
