Article structured data helps search engines understand a page as a specific piece of content — with a headline, author, and publication date — which can make it eligible for enhanced search result features like rich snippets.
This generator builds a valid schema.org Article JSON-LD snippet from your article's headline, author, publisher, and publication dates, ready to paste into your page.
How it works
Enter your article's headline, author, publisher, and publication date (plus optional fields like a description, modified date, and images). The generator builds a complete JSON-LD snippet following schema.org's Article type, ready to paste into your page's head or body.
- Enter headline.
- Enter description (optional).
- Enter author name.
- Enter date published.
- Enter date modified (optional).
- Enter image URL (optional).
- Enter publisher name.
- Enter publisher logo URL (optional).
- Click Calculate to see your results.
Examples
A blog post with an author and publisher
An article titled "How to Bake Sourdough Bread" by Jane Doe, published through DocNectar, generates a complete JSON-LD Article snippet with the headline, author, publisher, and ISO-8601-formatted publication date.
Who should use it
- Adding structured data to a blog post or news article to improve search engine understanding.
- Making a content page eligible for enhanced search result features like rich snippets.
Industry applications
- SEO and content marketing
- Publishing and digital media
Advantages
- Generates valid, correctly-escaped JSON-LD following the schema.org Article specification.
- Supports optional fields like images and a publisher logo for richer display eligibility.
Limitations
- Adding schema doesn't guarantee any specific search result appearance — that's entirely at the search engine's discretion.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Using a headline longer than the ~110 characters Google recommends for the Article schema's headline property.
- Forgetting to update the "date modified" field when significantly revising an already-published article.
Best practices
- Keep the headline concise and match it closely to your page's actual visible title, since mismatched schema and visible content can be flagged as misleading by search engines.
Tips
- Validate your generated schema with Google's Rich Results Test after adding it to your page, to confirm it's recognized correctly before relying on it.
