HowTo Schema Builder
Create HowTo JSON-LD from a title, supplies, tools, and ordered steps.
Structured data for how-to guides
HowTo schema breaks a task into ordered steps that search engines can read, which historically powered step-by-step rich results and still helps machines and answer engines understand instructional content. This builder turns a title and a list of steps into the JSON-LD, numbering each step and nesting it correctly, so you avoid the fiddly array structure that is easy to malform by hand.
Steps must match the page
Each step in the markup should correspond to a step shown on the page, in the same order, since HowTo structured data is only valid when it mirrors visible content. Paste the result into a script type="application/ld+json" tag and validate it with the Rich Results Test. The JSON-LD is generated in your browser and never uploaded.
