How to Create a Structured Data Code for Rich Results on the SERP
Schema markup can provide major benefits to your web page. Most notably, using structured data allows search engines to properly read/understand the context of your page. As a result, search engines can pull snippets of content from your page and place it within the organic results on the SERP (search engine results page). These rich results increase a page’s SERP visibility and are visually more enticing. This, of course, is exactly what any site wants as it draws the user to its organic result on the SERP and increases the chances of garnering a click.
Yet, the technical aspects of implementing structured data markup have acted as a barrier for many, thereby preventing sites from benefiting from it.
Enter the Structured Data Markup Generator.
Using the Structured Data Markup Generator
The Schema.org based structured data generator tool allows you to easily create JSON-LD markup. Here’s a step-by-step tutorial on how to create the code for your structured markup implementation:
Step 1: Select the schema format you would like to create.
Step 2: Fill in all appropriate fields. Note, each format has its own fields. On the right, you’ll notice the tool automatically creates the code needed for Google to produce its Rich results as you work your way through the fields.
Step 3: Click ‘Validate’ to send your script to Google’s Structured Data Testing Tool. When in the Google Structured Data Tool, click the green arrow button to validate your code.
Step 4: Click ‘Test’ to send your script to Google’s Rich Results Test Tool to see if your page is eligible for rich results, then select the device type and click the Test Code button.
Step 5: After your code has been validated and tested, click the copy button to copy the code to your clipboard, then paste the code into your page’s HTML. (Note, Google has said they can read JSON structured data in both a page’s header and body.)
