Choose questions from transactions
Use support tickets, returns, product filters, reviews, and pre-purchase chat. Do not generate twenty near-duplicate questions around a keyword.
Ring case questions:
- Does it require existing wiring?
- Which Wi-Fi band is supported?
- Which alerts require a subscription?
- What transformer limits apply?
HexClad case questions:
- Which pots and lids are included?
- Does it work on induction?
- What does the lifetime warranty exclude?
Answer with scoped facts
Bad:
Is this the best doorbell? Yes, it is the best smart choice.
Useful:
No existing wiring is required for battery operation. Optional continuous
charging requires a compatible 8–24 VAC system within the documented limits.
Visible HTML first
Use headings and disclosure elements. Keep the answer in returned HTML. Link policy terms rather than copying them.
Schema decision
FAQ content may be useful even when a search platform does not display an FAQ rich result. Add FAQPage only when every question and answer is visible, authored by the site, and accurately represented. Do not mark customer reviews or community questions as merchant FAQ answers.
Validation
curl -sSL https://example.com/products/item -o product.html
rg -n 'FAQPage|Question|acceptedAnswer|Does it require' product.html
Compare schema text with visible text exactly. Remove stale FAQ schema when an app leaves markup after the visible block is deleted.
Acceptance criteria
Each question resolves a real buying risk, has a factual answer, identifies exclusions, remains visible, and has an owner for updates. Schema is optional; useful content is not.
Rollback
Disable the FAQ section in a duplicate theme or restore the prior metaobject entries. Confirm removal from both visible HTML and JSON-LD.
