Structured Data (Schema)

6 min readUpdated 9 August 2026
Structured data is a hidden note in your pages that tells Google exactly what they are: a local business, a product, an FAQ, a blog article. It's what powers the rich results you see in search: star ratings, opening hours, FAQ dropdowns, product prices. For the basics you don't write any code, Limecube builds it for you.
You'll find it under SEO Manager › Structured data.

What Limecube already does for you

The Already on your site panel lists the structured data Limecube adds automatically, with nothing for you to do:
  • An Organization tag built from your site name, logo and social links.
  • FAQ data from your Accordion elements.
  • Menu data from a Food menu, Product data from shop products, and Article data from blog posts.
You can switch FAQ or Menu schema off for a single element by editing that block on the page and toggling its schema option.

Adding site-wide structured data

In the Site-wide structured data card, pick a Type. LocalBusiness is right for most service and shop sites: choose it and Limecube builds the data from a simple form (name, address, opening hours). Pick Other only if you want to paste your own JSON-LD. Either way it's added to every page.
The JSON-LD output box shows exactly what will be added, a live validator flags any problems as you type, and Test in Google opens Google's Rich Results test for the page you choose from the picker beside it. Click Apply to save.
Google's Rich Results test fetches your live page, so it can't reach a site that's still on its temporary Limecube address or a local preview. Test once your site is published.

Listing the services you offer

On the Business plan, the Services you offer builder lets you add up to 10 services. Click + Add new, then fill in the Service name (required), and optionally a category, the area served, a short description and a linked page, and click Apply. Each one becomes a Service tag attached to your business, so Google understands what you actually do.

Structured data for a single page

To add your own JSON-LD to one page, open Page Settings › SEO and paste it into the Schema markup field (Business plan). Page-level structured data is added on top of your site-wide type, so both apply.

Tips

  • Pick LocalBusiness unless you know what you're pasting. The form fills in the fields Google expects, and it's a superset of the automatic Organization tag.
  • Test in Google before relying on it, and only on your published site.
  • Keep it truthful. Structured data that doesn't match what's on the page can get your rich results ignored.
  • You rarely need to touch a page's own JSON-LD. Blog posts, products, menus and FAQs are all handled for you.
