Local Schema Markup

LocalBusiness schema: business name, address, phone, hours, geo coordinates. Required for local SEO. Earn rich snippets in Maps and SERPs.

LocalBusiness schema example

<script type='application/ld+json'>
{
  '@context': 'https://schema.org',
  '@type': 'LocalBusiness',
  'name': 'CardPrepAI',
  'image': 'https://cardprepai.com/logo.png',
  'address': {
    '@type': 'PostalAddress',
    'streetAddress': '123 Main St',
    'addressLocality': 'Howell',
    'addressRegion': 'MI',
    'postalCode': '48843',
    'addressCountry': 'US'
  },
  'geo': {
    '@type': 'GeoCoordinates',
    'latitude': '42.6075',
    'longitude': '-83.9294'
  },
  'telephone': '[phone]',
  'openingHoursSpecification': {
    '@type': 'OpeningHoursSpecification',
    'dayOfWeek': ['Monday', 'Tuesday', 'Wednesday', 'Thursday', 'Friday'],
    'opens': '09:00',
    'closes': '17:00'
  }
}
</script>

Per-page implementation

Add to:

1. Homepage
2. Contact page
3. Location pages (if multi-location)
4. About page

Not necessary on every page — focus on local-relevant pages.

Validation

1. Google Rich Results Test
2. Schema.org Validator
3. Search Console > Structured data report
4. Verify accuracy (don't fake hours/address)
