Question and answer page (Q&A Page) schema markup is a schema.org type that is used for pages that contain a question and one or multiple answers to that question.
It's great for FAQ pages, or for a page with a single question proposed, and multiple answers given by users.
It's also great for SEO purposes because structured pages are better indexed by Google.

Q&A Page Schema Markup requires 3 schema classes:

  1. QAPagehttps://schema.org/QAPage )

  2. Questionhttps://schema.org/Question )

  3. Answerhttps://schema.org/Answer )


To create a QAPage Structured FAQ page:

  • just after the <!DOCTYPE html> tag insert:
    <html itemscope itemtype=”http://schema.org/QAPage”>

  • each question needs to be proposed as:
    <div itemscope itemtype=”http://schema.org/Question”>
        <div itemprop=”text”>Who is John Doe?</div>
    </div>

  • and each following answer as:
    <div itemscope itemtype=”http://schema.org/Answer”>
        <div itemprop=”text”>John Doe a fictitious name used in legal proceedings for a male party whose true name is not known.</div>
    </div>


A full and simple FAQ page code example using Microdata:


<div itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/FAQPage">
    <div itemscope itemprop="mainEntity" itemtype="http://schema.org/Question">
        <h2 itemprop="name" class="classyschema-faqpage-question">Who is John Doe?</h2>
        <div itemscope itemprop="acceptedAnswer" itemtype="http://schema.org/Answer">
            <div itemprop="text">
                <p>John Doe a fictitious name used in legal proceedings for a male party whose true name is not known.</p>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>
    <div itemscope itemprop="mainEntity" itemtype="http://schema.org/Question">
        <h2 itemprop="name" class="classyschema-faqpage-question">How old is John Doe?</h2>
        <div itemscope itemprop="acceptedAnswer" itemtype="http://schema.org/Answer">
           <div itemprop="text">
               <p>No one knows how old is John Doe.</p>
           </div>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

 

the result of this code is: 

Who is John Doe?

John Doe a fictitious name used in legal proceedings for a male party whose true name is not known.

How old is John Doe?

No one knows how old is John Doe.

 

NOTE

You can customize code by adding a class attribute, such as:

<div itemscope itemprop="acceptedAnswer" itemtype="http://schema.org/Answer" class="my-CSS-class">
