About the Article Schema Generator (News & Blog)

Article structured data (including BlogPosting, NewsArticle, and TechArticle) helps search engines understand article headlines, author identity, publication dates, and hero images. Implementing Article schema enhances content visibility in Google Search and Google Discover.

Rich article markup also supports Google's E-E-A-T (Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, Trustworthiness) evaluation by explicitly linking content to verified author and publisher entities.

This Article Schema Generator provides a simple form to configure headline, description, publication date, author, and image details, producing valid <script type="application/ld+json"> code ready for immediate use.

A common error is omitting dateModified when updating older content; search engines rely on accurate modification timestamps to determine content freshness. Another error is using relative image URLs instead of full absolute HTTPS URLs.

Tip: Always update both datePublished and dateModified whenever you refresh an existing article, and include an absolute image URL formatted in 16:9 or 1200x675 resolution.
