FAQ
What is HowTo schema?
HowTo is a Schema.org type that marks up step-by-step instructions for completing a task. When added as JSON-LD, Google may show a rich result with the steps, total time, and an image carousel in search results.
How do I add HowTo schema to my page?
Generate the JSON-LD with this tool, then paste the <script type="application/ld+json"> block into the HTML <head> of the page. The visible instructions on the page must match the schema steps.
Should every step have an image?
Images are optional per step but highly recommended — Google can show a step image carousel in rich results. Use absolute https URLs and at least 696px wide images for best results.
What extra features does this tool have compared to others?
(1) Add/remove steps dynamically. (2) Reorder steps up/down. (3) Per-step image URL. (4) Total time calculator (minutes → ISO 8601 PT#H#M). (5) Estimated cost input (parses $10 USD into MonetaryAmount). (6) Supplies list. (7) Tools list. (8) Bulk paste steps (Name | Text). (9) History (localStorage, last 20). (10) Shareable URL — encode the form in the fragment.
Is my data sent anywhere?
No. HowTo schema generation is pure string templating in your browser. History is stored in localStorage on this device only.
