The guide
This is the kind of code the generator writes, here for a fictional dental practice. The opening hours use the openingHoursSpecification format that Google documents.
<script type="application/ld+json">
{
"@context": "https://schema.org",
"@type": "Dentist",
"name": "Harbourline Dental",
"url": "https://harbourlinedental.example",
"telephone": "+1 303 555 0188",
"address": {
"@type": "PostalAddress",
"streetAddress": "120 Market St",
"addressLocality": "Denver",
"addressRegion": "CO",
"postalCode": "80202",
"addressCountry": "US"
},
"openingHoursSpecification": [{
"@type": "OpeningHoursSpecification",
"dayOfWeek": ["Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday"],

}
</script>Google requires two properties for LocalBusiness markup and recommends several more:
| Property | Required? | Note |
|---|---|---|
| name | Required | Your business name, as on your Google Business Profile. |
| address | Required | Include as many parts as you can: street, town, region, postcode, country. |
| telephone | Recommended | The main number customers should call. |
| url | Recommended | The page for this location. |
| openingHoursSpecification | Recommended | Days with opening and closing times. |
| geo | Recommended | Latitude and longitude, to at least five decimal places. |
| priceRange | Recommended | A relative range, such as $$, or a numeric range. |
| aggregateRating | Only for review sites | Google recommends it only for sites that collect reviews about other businesses. |
Google asks for the most specific LocalBusiness type that fits, such as Dentist, LegalService or AccountingService rather than plain LocalBusiness. If more than one fits, list them as an array. Pick a type in the generator and it is used for the @type.
Search engines and AI assistants compare your markup with your Google Business Profile and directory listings. Use the same name, address, phone number and hours everywhere, and update all of them when anything changes. Local SEO covers the profile, reviews and location pages; the Schema Markup Generator writes Organization markup for your homepage.
The short answers
LocalBusiness schema is structured data that states your business name, type, address, phone number, opening hours and website in a format search engines read reliably. A more specific type, such as Dentist or LegalService, describes you more precisely.
It helps search engines confirm your details. Your Google Business Profile, reviews and consistent listings matter more for local results, so make sure the markup matches them exactly.
Type them in the short form, one range per line or separated by commas: Mo-Fr 09:00-17:00, Sa 10:00-14:00. The generator turns them into the openingHoursSpecification format Google documents, and tells you if a line can't be read. Leave the field empty if your hours vary.
Questions
Local schema usually means LocalBusiness structured data: markup that states a business's name, type, address, phone number and opening hours for search engines. It should match your Google Business Profile exactly.
Your homepage or contact page, wherever the address and phone number are shown. If you have several locations, give each location page its own markup.
Use the most specific schema.org type that fits, such as Dentist, LegalService or Restaurant. It is still a LocalBusiness to search engines.
Yes, but only include an address you show publicly. Many service-area businesses leave the street out and list the areas they serve on the page instead.
Links to your official profiles, such as your Google Business Profile, LinkedIn, Facebook or a directory listing. They help search engines and AI assistants connect those profiles to your business.
No. The code is built in your browser, and nothing you type is sent to us.
