How to use it

Start with the question. Give it a short title, add any detail the asker provided, and put their name in if you have it. Then add the answers people have posted. Each answer can carry an author name and an upvote count, and you can mark one as the accepted answer with the radio button. The code updates live as you fill things in.

When it looks right, copy the block and paste it into the page that shows the same thread, or download the raw JSON for your codebase. As ever, the markup has to match what visitors see on the page.

Q&A schema (QAPage) is built for pages where one person asks a question and others answer it, like a forum or community thread. It is not the same as FAQ schema, which is for pages where you write both the questions and the official answers. Using the right type helps Google show the most useful answer and avoids a structured data mismatch that could get the whole thing ignored. Test the output in the Rich Results Test before you go live.

Frequently asked questions

How is Q&A schema different from FAQ schema?

FAQ schema is for a page where you provide both the questions and the official answers. Q&A schema (QAPage) is for a page built around a single user question that other people can answer, like a forum or community thread.

What is the accepted answer?

The accepted answer is the response marked as the best or correct one, often by the person who asked or by a moderator. Marking it helps search engines highlight the most useful answer.

Can I use Q&A schema on a normal FAQ page?

No. If you wrote the answers yourself, use FAQ schema instead. Using QAPage on a standard FAQ page can count as a structured data mismatch and may cause Google to ignore it.
