Each episode or content piece is a standalone production that AI can cite, summarize, and recommend. This blueprint structures the episode with host attribution, publish dates, and production context.

BlogPosting or Article depending on the content format. Guest posts may use Article to distinguish them from native blog content.Person node with external sameAs links so AI can verify the author independently.publisher is your publication; the author may be someone else. AI uses this distinction for attribution accuracy.articleSection to place the post within a topic category, helping AI understand its context.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 Single Episode 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. Author name 2. Author social profile 3. Author url 4. Domain 5. Faq answer 6. Faq question 7. Featured image 8. Modified date 9. Post excerpt 10. Post slug 11. Post title 12. Publish date 13. Topic category 14. Topic slug 15. Word count 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 Single Episode" - 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 single episode page.

The Blog blueprint is for posts authored by your editorial team. The Single Post template handles all article types including guest posts, sponsored content, and syndicated articles where the author-publisher relationship differs.
Yes. Sponsored posts should include "isAccessibleForFree": true or false as appropriate, and you can note the sponsorship relationship. Transparency in structured data helps AI handle sponsored content correctly.
Optional but helpful. wordCount helps AI assess content depth. A 3,000-word deep dive signals different value than a 300-word quick tip, and AI may prioritize longer-form content for detailed queries.
