What questions should I include in FAQ Schema?

Include questions your target audience actually asks—use Google Search Console, customer support tickets, and 'People Also Ask' to find real queries. Prioritize high-intent questions about pricing, features, use cases, and comparisons. FAQ Schema is perfect for conversational, long-tail queries like 'How long does implementation take?' or 'Can I integrate with Salesforce?' GEO platforms identify these questions through AI search analysis.

Does FAQ Schema help with Google rankings too?

Yes. Google can display FAQ rich results in search, increasing click-through rates. However, for GEO, the benefit is even greater—FAQ Schema is arguably the #1 structured data type for AI citations because LLMs primarily serve answers to questions. GEO platforms prioritize FAQ Schema in all generated content for this exact reason.

What is FAQ Schema?

FAQ Schema is a Schema.org markup type that explicitly identifies question-answer pairs on a webpage. Implementing FAQ schema makes it extremely easy for LLMs and answer engines to extract relevant Q&A content. This is particularly valuable for GEO because LLMs often look for direct answers to user questions. FAQ schema helps ensure your answers are properly understood, indexed, and potentially cited in AI responses.

How Qwairy Makes This Actionable

Qwairy's AI-generated articles automatically include FAQ Schema markup in both content structure and metadata. This ensures your content is optimally formatted for AI extraction and citation.

Frequently Asked Questions

An FAQ section is just HTML text—AI systems must parse and interpret it. FAQ Schema explicitly marks each question and answer with structured metadata, eliminating ambiguity. This dramatically increases extraction accuracy and citation likelihood. Think of it as the difference between a conversation transcript vs. labeled dialogue—the structure makes all the difference for machines.
