Local Business Schema Generator
Generate LocalBusiness JSON-LD with address, hours and geo for local SEO. The markup updates live as you type — copy it, paste it into your page, and you are eligible for rich results.
What is local business schema markup?
Structured data is machine-readable code, written in the JSON-LD format Google recommends, that describes your page content to search engines explicitly instead of leaving them to guess. This generator builds that markup for you: enter your details once and it produces a valid schema.org snippet you paste into your page. Search engines like Google and Bing read it to understand your content and, when eligible, upgrade your listing to a rich result.
Rich results — star ratings, FAQ dropdowns, event dates, product prices and more — consistently earn higher click-through rates than plain blue links, which makes correct structured data one of the fastest, cheapest wins in technical SEO.
Why local business schema matters for SEO
LocalBusiness schema feeds the map pack and local knowledge panels — your address, opening hours and phone number straight in the results. For any business serving a physical area, it is one of the highest-leverage pieces of markup for winning "near me" searches.

Which business type should I choose?
Use the most specific schema.org type available — Dentist, Restaurant, Plumber, LawFirm — rather than the generic LocalBusiness. Specific types qualify for more tailored rich results.
Does LocalBusiness schema replace a Google Business Profile?
No — they work together. Your Business Profile powers Maps, while on-site LocalBusiness schema confirms the same details on your website, which strengthens local ranking consistency.
Will this markup guarantee rich results in Google?
No tool can guarantee rich results — Google decides eligibility per page based on content quality, policy compliance and overall site signals. What valid markup does is make your page eligible: without correct structured data you are not in the running at all. Combine it with visible matching content, a crawlable page and solid on-page SEO for the best chance.
Is the Local Business Schema Generator free to use?
Yes — the Local Business Schema Generator is completely free, with unlimited use, no signup and no email required. It is built and maintained by WebSoft IT Development Solutions.
How do I add the generated JSON-LD to my website?
Copy the generated <script type="application/ld+json"> block and paste it into the <head> (or anywhere in the HTML) of the page it describes. On WordPress use a header-scripts plugin or your theme settings; you can also inject it with Google Tag Manager. Then confirm it with our JSON-LD Validator and Google’s Rich Results Test.
