Article Schema Generator: Article, BlogPosting & NewsArticle JSON-LD
Turn a blog post or news story into valid schema.org Article markup in seconds. Fill in the headline, author, publisher, dates and images once, watch the JSON-LD build live with a Google SERP preview beside it, and copy the exact <script> tag to paste, all in your browser, nothing uploaded.
What is the article schema generator?
The Article Schema Generator builds valid Article, BlogPosting and NewsArticle JSON-LD, nesting author and publisher graphs with published/modified dates, hero images and keywords. A live SERP preview and required/recommended validity check confirm rich-result eligibility. It's free and runs in your browser, so draft headlines never leave your device.
The GigAI Article Schema Generator builds the structured data that tells Google a page is a piece of editorial content (an Article, a BlogPosting or a NewsArticle) as clean, valid JSON-LD. Unlike a generic schema hub, it is tuned entirely for publishers and content SEOs: it grades your headline against Google's ~110-character truncation limit, builds the nested Person author and Organization publisher graphs correctly (including the publisher logo as an ImageObject), handles datePublished and dateModified as proper ISO dates, accepts one or many hero images for the best rich-result eligibility, and lets you attach article keywords and the article body. As you type, the output pane regenerates live with empty fields stripped, and a required/recommended validity check grades the markup against schema.org's rules for your chosen type so you can see, before you ship, whether it qualifies for an article rich result and exactly which recommended fields (image, author, datePublished, publisher) are still missing. A Google SERP-style preview shows how the underlying page could appear, and one click copies the ready-to-paste `<script type="application/ld+json">` block or downloads the raw JSON. Because generation, validation and preview all happen on your device using the browser's own JSON engine, your unpublished headlines, author names and draft content never leave your machine. There is nothing for us to store, log or see.

How to use the article schema generator
- 1
Pick the article type
Choose Article for general content, BlogPosting for a blog, or NewsArticle for news. The validity check adapts to the type you select.
- 2
Fill the headline, author & publisher
Enter the headline (watch the length coach), the author's name and URL, and the publisher's name and logo. Load the example first if you want a realistic starting point.
- 3
Add dates, images & keywords
Set datePublished and dateModified, paste one or more hero image URLs, and optionally add article keywords and the article body. The JSON-LD and SERP preview update live.
- 4
Read the validity check
Green means the required headline is present. Warnings point to recommended fields (image, author, datePublished, publisher) that improve rich-result eligibility.
- 5
Copy the script tag & test it
Copy the `<script type="application/ld+json">` block (or download the JSON), paste it into the article's `<head>`, then confirm with Google's Rich Results Test before publishing.
What Article Schema Generator includes
Article, BlogPosting & NewsArticle
Switch between the three editorial schema.org types from one dropdown. The @type updates instantly and the validity check adapts to that type's required and recommended properties.
Correct author & publisher graphs
Enter an author name and URL and a publisher name and logo, and the tool nests them as a proper Person and an Organization with the logo as an ImageObject, the shape Google actually reads.
Live headline length coaching
Google truncates long headlines around 110 characters. A live counter warns you before your title gets cut, so the headline that reaches searchers is the one you wrote.
Google SERP preview beside the code
A pixel-aware Google snippet preview updates as you type, so you see how the underlying article could look in search results. Not just the raw JSON-LD.
Rich-results validity check
Every field is graded against schema.org's required (headline) and recommended (image, author, datePublished, publisher) sets, so you know at a glance whether the markup is eligible.
100% in your browser
Markup is built with the browser's native JSON engine on your device. Unpublished headlines, author names and draft content are never uploaded, stored or logged.
Why use our article schema generator
Qualify for article rich treatments
Enhanced article listings, Top Stories and the article carousel all lean on correct Article structured data. This generator produces it cleanly so you skip the syntax errors that silently disqualify a page.
Know it's valid before you publish
The inline check flags a missing headline as an error and missing recommended fields as warnings, so you fix eligibility problems in the tool rather than discovering them later in Search Console.
Standardise markup across every author
Share a pre-filled link or a downloaded snippet so every writer emits the same Article shape, consistent publisher, logo and author markup that search engines can trust.
Safe for unpublished drafts
Because everything runs locally, you can build markup for embargoed news or draft posts containing internal headlines and author data without any of it leaving your machine.

Common problems, solved
Hit a snag? Here are quick fixes for the issues people run into most.
The validity check shows an error for the headline.
headline is the one required property for Article, BlogPosting and NewsArticle. Add it and the error clears: without it the markup is not eligible for an article rich result.
It warns that author, image, datePublished or publisher is missing.
Those are recommended, not required, so the markup is still valid, but Google favours complete article markup for rich treatments. Add each one you can. A hero image and a named author matter most.
My publisher logo isn't showing up in the output.
The logo is only added when you also provide a publisher name, because schema.org nests the logo inside the publisher Organization. Fill the publisher name and the logo appears as an ImageObject.
Google's test flags an issue my tool didn't.
This tool is a pragmatic linter for required/recommended properties, not a full schema.org shape validator. Always confirm with Google's Rich Results Test, which adds Google-specific article eligibility rules on top of valid JSON-LD.
Get the most out of it
Keep the headline under about 110 characters, Google truncates longer ones in search, and the length coach flags it live as you type.
Always set dateModified when you update an article. A fresh modified date signals to Google that the content is current.
Provide at least one high-resolution hero image (16:9, 4:3 and 1:1 crops are ideal): image is the recommended field with the biggest rich-result impact.
The author URL should point to a real author bio page. A linkable Person adds credibility and strengthens the author graph.
After copying, run the markup through Google's Rich Results Test. Passing this tool's check is necessary, but Google applies its own article eligibility rules.
