Schema Markup Validator
Extract and validate the structured data on any page: JSON-LD parse errors, schema types found, and missing required properties for rich results. Free, no signup.
What structured data buys you
Schema markup (JSON-LD) tells machines what a page is — an article, a product, an organization, an FAQ — instead of leaving them to infer it. Google uses it for rich results like breadcrumbs, products and reviews; AI assistants lean on it when deciding what to cite. This validator extracts every JSON-LD block and microdata item from a URL, reports JSON parse errors per block (a single stray comma silently kills the whole block), and checks the required properties for common types.
Where to start if you have none
For most small sites the highest-value types are Organization on the homepage, BreadcrumbList on interior pages, and Article/BlogPosting on posts. Skip markup for things your pages don't visibly contain — schema that misrepresents the page is a manual-action risk, not a shortcut. Once markup is in place, a full page check confirms crawlers can see it alongside everything else that matters.
