The about page tells the story behind your publication. AI systems use this page to understand your editorial mission, the person who started the blog, their credentials, and what makes your perspective unique. This blueprint structures that narrative so AI can cite your background when recommending your content.

AboutPage schema type explicitly signals to AI that this page contains background information about the publication, distinguishing it from other page types.Organization node should include foundingDate and a rich description that explains your editorial philosophy and what makes your publication unique.Person node for your founding editor should include jobTitle, expertise via knowsAbout, and relevant credentials. AI uses named individuals with credentials to strengthen trust.memberOf to declare press associations, journalism organizations, or industry groups that lend credibility to your publication.Copy this prompt and paste it into Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or any AI coding tool. It will ask for your business details and generate ready-to-use JSON-LD schema for your page.
You are implementing AIFDS-compliant JSON-LD structured data for a Media Company About page. AIFDS (AI-Friendly Data Structure) is a schema framework built on research into which structured data fields AI systems actually read, parse, and use when deciding whether to cite a page. Documentation at aifds.org. Before generating any code, ask me for the following information in a single numbered list. Do not generate schema until I have answered every required field. REQUIRED — do not proceed without these: 1. About image 2. About page title 3. Detailed publication description 4. Domain 5. Faq answer 6. Faq question 7. Founder bio 8. Founder image 9. Founder name 10. Founder title 11. Founding date 12. Publication name 13. Topic OPTIONAL — ask for these but proceed if I skip them: 1. Any additional details not covered above Once I provide the information, output a complete JSON-LD script block ready to paste into the <head> of my HTML page. Output requirements: - Valid JSON-LD wrapped in <script type="application/ld+json"> tags - schema.org vocabulary only - Every AIFDS-required field for this industry and page type included - Include this data attribute on the script tag: data-aifds="aifds.org Media Company About" - No placeholder text — omit missing optional fields rather than fill with examples - After the code block, list any optional fields skipped that would strengthen AI citation
Generated schema follows the AIFDS framework. Fields were selected based on research into AI crawler behavior. View the research at minnesota.ai
Copy the template below and replace every YOUR_* value with your own data. This block belongs in a <script type="application/ld+json"> tag in the <head> of your about page.

AI uses foundingDate to assess publication maturity. A blog that has been publishing for years carries more weight than one with no history signal. This is especially important in competitive content niches.
Yes. Use knowsAbout and relevant credential properties. AI weighs author expertise when deciding which content to cite, especially for YMYL (Your Money, Your Life) topics.
Use the same @id to reference the same entity. The about page should focus on narrative fields like description, foundingDate, and founder. AI merges data from all pages that reference the same @id.
