7 Reasons Why Your Schema Isn't Showing in Google
Google ignores schema markup that doesn't meet their strict requirements. Here are the most common issues and how to fix them fast.
1. Validation Errors in Your Schema Code
Most common issue: Syntax errors, missing required fields, or incorrect data types. Google's Rich Results Test shows errors, but doesn't always explain HOW to fix them. Our AI detects and corrects all validation issues automatically.

Each schema type has required fields. FAQ needs 'acceptedAnswer', Product needs 'offers' with 'price', Article needs 'author' and 'datePublished'. Miss one field = Google ignores the entire schema. SchemaBooster ensures all required fields are included.
Check for missing fields3. Content Mismatch Between Schema & Page
Your schema says '$99' but page shows '$89'? Google rejects it. Schema content MUST match visible page content exactly. This is the #1 reason Product and Review schemas fail after passing validation.
Learn about content matching4. Google Policy Violations
Spammy reviews, hidden content, misleading information, or schema on irrelevant pages violate Google's guidelines. Policy violations = permanent rejection until fixed. Check Search Console for manual actions.
Review Google's policies5. Page Not Indexed or Crawled Yet
Google can't show schema if they haven't crawled your page. New pages take 3-7 days to index. Check 'URL Inspection' in Search Console. If not indexed, request indexing manually.
Fix indexing issues6. Schema Added Recently (Needs Time)
Even perfect schema takes 7-14 days to appear after Google recrawls. If your schema validates and has no errors, wait 2 weeks before panicking. Google doesn't guarantee rich results immediately.
Speed up the process7. Wrong Schema Type for Content
Using Recipe schema on a product page? Article schema on FAQ content? Google ignores schema that doesn't match page type. Use the correct @type for your content or Google won't show it.
