Common errors and how to fix them

Eight issues teams hit when generating schema.

Schema rejected by Google

Cause: Missing required field.

Fix: Run through Rich Results Test; fix flagged field.

Wrong @type

Cause: Used generic LocalBusiness when specific type fits.

Fix: Use specific type (Restaurant, Dentist, etc.) for better SEO.

Address format invalid

Cause: Used inline address, not PostalAddress.

Fix: Use structured PostalAddress with streetAddress, addressLocality, addressRegion, postalCode, addressCountry.

Opening hours wrong format

Cause: Used informal "Mon-Fri 9-5".

Fix: Use openingHoursSpecification with dayOfWeek and times array.

Phone number not E.164

Fix: Use +1 country code prefix.

Multiple LocalBusiness conflict

Cause: Multiple schemas on one page.

Fix: Latitude first, then longitude. Decimal format only.

Schema works but no Knowledge Graph

Cause: Google has not indexed yet.
