Ever noticed products on Google that show ratings, prices, and images—right in the search results? That’s the power of Product and Review schema markups at work. As more shoppers turn to online search to find what they need, it’s critical for businesses and SEOs to present products in a way that’s both user-friendly and search-engine friendly. Knowing how to add Product and Rating schema markup helps bridge that gap.
In this guide, you’ll learn how to do just that to enhance your listings, boost visibility, and improve your chances of earning rich results.
Product is a structured data type from Schema.org that gives search engines detailed information about an item you sell or offer. Common fields include:
You can use this schema markup alone, but I recommend adding a Rating schema to supplement the value it gives to your SEO. The Rating schema adds a numeric rating score (e.g., 4 out of 5), helping improve your product’s visibility in search and boosting credibility with potential buyers.
Here’s a basic JSON-LD schema markup for a Product using Schema.org’s Product type—without Rating.
<script type=”application/ld+json“>
{
“@context”: “https://schema.org“,
“@type”: “Product”,
“name”: “Noise-Canceling Wireless Headphones”,
“image”:[[
“https://example.com/photos/headphones-front.jpg”,
“https://example.com/photos/headphones-side.jpg”
],
“description”: “Premium noise-canceling over-ear headphones with 40-hour battery life and Bluetooth 5.0 support.”,
“sku”: “NCWH-500”,
“mpn”: “1234567890”,
“brand”: {
“@type”: “Brand”,
“name”: “HeadphonesBrand”
},
“offers”: {
“@type”: “Offer”,
“url”: “https://example.com/product/noise-canceling-headphones”,
“priceCurrency”: “PHP”,
“price”: “19999.99”,
“priceValidUntil”: “2025-05-30”,
“availability”: “https://schema.org/InStock”,
“itemCondition”: “https://schema.org/NewCondition”,
“seller”: {
“@type”: “Organization”,
“name”: “HeadphoneStore”
}
}
}
script>
While AggregateRating is commonly used for averages across multiple reviews, the Review schema is useful when representing a single product rating — such as an expert score, internal assessment, or first-party rating.
