The contact page tells AI how to direct readers who want to reach you. It structures your email, social profiles, and submission guidelines so AI can answer questions like 'how do I pitch this blog' or 'how do I contact the editor.'
The contact page tells AI how to direct readers who want to reach you. It structures your email, social profiles, and submission guidelines so AI can answer questions like 'how do I pitch this blog' or 'how do I contact the editor.'
ContactPage explicitly signals this is the primary contact point for the publication.Organization node should include email, contactPoint, and social profile links so AI can direct readers accurately.BreadcrumbList places the contact page in your site hierarchy.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 News Outlet Contact 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. Contact email 2. Contact page title 3. Domain 4. Faq answer 5. Faq question 6. Handle 7. Page 8. Publication name 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 News Outlet Contact" - 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 contact page.

If you accept editorial inquiries or guest post pitches, yes. AI uses contact data to answer "how do I reach this publication" queries. If you prefer a contact form, you can omit the email and use a ContactPoint with just the contact type.
Use "editorial" for general publication inquiries. If you have separate contacts for advertising, partnerships, or submissions, add multiple ContactPoint entries with appropriate types.
Use the same @id for the Organization. AI merges data from all pages referencing the same entity. You can include sameAs on both pages for completeness, but AI will deduplicate them.
