What Is an Article Schema Generator?

An article schema generator formats blog posts and news content into Article, BlogPosting, or NewsArticle JSON-LD — structured data defined by schema.org that tells search engines the headline, author, publish date, and featured image of a piece of content. It's one of the core requirements for a page to be eligible for Google's Top Stories carousel and article-style rich results.

How to Use This Generator

  1. Pick a type: BlogPosting for most blog content, NewsArticle for news publishers, or the generic Article type otherwise.
  2. Fill in the headline, URL, and description exactly as they appear on the live page.
  3. Add a featured image — Google recommends at least one image at 1200px wide or larger.
  4. Set author and publisher details, including a publisher logo for full rich-result eligibility.
  5. Copy the JSON-LD and paste it into your post, then confirm with Rich Results Test.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Missing publisher logo. Google requires a publisher logo for full Article rich-result eligibility.
  • Headline mismatch. The schema headline should match the visible page title.
  • No dateModified. Leaving this out makes it harder for Google to know your content is kept current.
  • Relative image or article URLs. Always use full, absolute URLs.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between Article, BlogPosting, and NewsArticle?

All three inherit from the same base type. BlogPosting is for blog-style content, NewsArticle is intended for news publishers and can unlock Top Stories eligibility, and Article is the generic fallback for anything else.

Do I need both datePublished and dateModified?

datePublished is required for full eligibility; dateModified is optional but recommended, especially if you update posts after publishing.

What image size does Google recommend?

At least 1200px wide, with an aspect ratio of 16x9, 4x3, or 1x1, for the best chance at a large-format rich result.
