About This Check

Checks whether FAQPage schema is present in your JSON-LD. Useful when you have real FAQ content on the page.

Why This Matters

LLM Discoverability

FAQPage schema presents question–answer pairs in a format LLMs are optimised to consume directly; well-structured FAQ pages dramatically increase the probability of being used as an AI answer source.

SEO Impact

FAQ rich results expand the SERP footprint significantly; pages with FAQ schema can occupy two to three times the normal result space, substantially boosting click-through rates.

What To Do Next

96.8% of audited sites need attention on faq (578 of 597 sites are warning or failing).

  • Prioritize faq on templates that create many URLs, because one template fix can improve a large share of structured data.
  • After changing the page, re-run the audit and compare the observed value for this check instead of relying on visual inspection alone.
  • Use the 3.2% pass rate as a benchmark: if your site fails here, passing the check moves it closer to the visible majority of crawlable, AI-readable pages.
