Schema.org in React

Add machine-readable JSON-LD so search and AI systems understand entities. Framework notes for React.

Problem Overview

Without structured data, crawlers and assistants infer your product from HTML alone. Schema.org JSON-LD makes entities explicit.

Why It Matters

Structured data improves rich-result eligibility and AI extractability — Organization, WebSite, SoftwareApplication, Article, FAQPage, and more.

Framework-Specific Explanation

In React, inject JSON-LD into the document head or early body from the server/static build so crawlers see it without executing client JS.

Step-by-Step Solution

  1. Define Organization JSON-LD sitewide.
  2. Add page-type schema (WebSite, SoftwareApplication, Article, FAQPage) where accurate.
  3. Validate JSON and keep markup in sync with visible content.
  4. Re-scan with MoneyGap after deploy.

Code Examples

<script type="application/ld+json">
{
  "@context": "https://schema.org",
  "@type": "Organization",
  "name": "Acme",
  "url": "https://acme.example",
  "logo": "https://acme.example/logo.png"
}
</script>

Common Mistakes

  • Invalid JSON in application/ld+json scripts
  • Marking up content that is not visible on the page
  • Missing @context or wrong @type
  • Duplicating conflicting entities across layouts

Validation Checklist

  • [ ] Valid JSON-LD in the document
  • [ ] Types match visible content
  • [ ] Organization present sitewide
  • [ ] Tested with a rich-results / schema validator

AI Readiness Notes

Schema.org is a core AI Readiness input. Prefer JSON-LD over microdata for maintainability.

Deployment Checklist

  • [ ] JSON-LD present in View Source
  • [ ] No conflicting duplicate Organization nodes
  • [ ] FAQ schema only on real FAQ content

Browser Extension Tips

Use a shared report to confirm structured-data findings before a launch review.
