What Is JSON-LD?
JSON-LD (JavaScript Object Notation for Linked Data) is a data format added to web pages that explains the meaning of content to machines. Google, ChatGPT, and other AI engines read this data to get reliable information about your business.
Core Schema Types for Local Businesses
- LocalBusiness: Business name, address, phone, opening hours, category. The essential schema for AI to recognize your business.
- FAQPage: Question-answer pairs. The most-cited source when ChatGPT and Gemini answer questions about your business.
- AggregateRating: Review count and average score. Influences ranking in "best X" queries.
- BreadcrumbList: Page hierarchy. Helps AI understand your site and cite the correct page.
Why Is FAQPage Schema So Important?
AI engines use FAQPage schema directly as a source when answering user questions. For "Is this clinic open on weekends?" it will present your FAQPage answer verbatim. That's why adding at least 5 Q&A pairs is strongly recommended.
