Why add video schema markup?

Video schema markup tells Google exactly what your video is about. Without it, search engines may not index your videos or show them as rich results. Adding structured data can significantly increase your click-through rate from search results.

Features

  • Google-compliant: Generates VideoObject schema following Google's guidelines.
  • Live Preview: See how your video will appear in Google search results.
  • Validation: Real-time checks ensure your markup is complete and valid.
  • Copy & Paste: Just copy the code and add it to your page's <head> section.

How to use this tool

  • Fill in your video details (title, description, thumbnail URL, etc.)
  • Check the rich snippet preview to see how it will look on Google
  • Make sure the validation shows green (all required fields filled)
  • Copy the JSON-LD code and paste it into your page's HTML <head>

FAQ

Common Questions

What is video schema markup?↓
Video schema markup (VideoObject) is structured data you add to your HTML that tells search engines about your video content. It helps Google display rich snippets with video thumbnails, duration, and upload date directly in search results.
Where do I paste the generated code?↓
Paste the JSON-LD script tag inside the <head> section of the HTML page where your video is embedded. In Shopify, you can add it via the theme editor's custom code section or directly in a Liquid template.
Do I need both contentUrl and embedUrl?↓
Google recommends providing at least one of them. contentUrl is the direct link to the video file (e.g., .mp4), while embedUrl is the URL of the embedded player (e.g., YouTube embed link). Providing both gives the best results.
How do I verify my schema markup works?↓
After adding the code to your page, use Google's Rich Results Test (search.google.com/test/rich-results) to validate it. You can also check the Schema Markup Validator at validator.schema.org.
Will this guarantee my video appears in Google search?↓
Schema markup significantly improves your chances of getting rich snippets, but Google ultimately decides which results to enhance. Having valid markup, quality content, and a well-structured page are all important factors.
