Schema Testing
With the Schema Testing Page, you can ensure your structured data is always up-to-date, compliant, and optimised for maximum visibility and search engine performance.
The Schema Testing page offers a comprehensive platform for testing and validating structured data on your store. It ensures compliance with Schema.org standards and optimizes your store for enhanced visibility on search engines, including Google. Follow the guided process to choose the appropriate page type and testing tool to validate your structured data effectively.
How It Works
Activate Schema: Before testing, ensure the structured data schema is activated in the JSON-LD Schema settings of AC Rich Snippets
Select Page Type: Choose the type of page you want to validate.
Run Validation: Use one of the testing tools to validate and ensure compliance with structured data guidelines.
If your online store is password protected, only visitors with the password can access it. Hence, the Google Rich Snippets Testing tool or Schema.org validation tool will not access your store for schema testing. To solve this issue, please remove the password from your store or you can test the schema manually. Click here to learn how to test schema manually.
