Pricing Page Blueprint — Employment Agency

The pricing page is where employers evaluate cost before reaching out. Structured data here tells AI exactly what placement models your agency offers and how your fee structure works — so when someone asks AI about staffing costs or compares agencies, your pricing is already in a format AI can parse and cite.

What this page needs

Pricing pages are high-intent pages that AI increasingly references when users ask about staffing costs. Structured data turns your fee descriptions into machine-readable offers that AI can compare across agencies and surface in direct answers.

Why these fields matter to AI

Each field in the template below serves a specific role in how AI systems discover, classify, and recommend your business.

Researched and tested by Minnesota AI

EmploymentAgency

name
Non-negotiable. AI cannot cite or recommend an unnamed entity.
url
AI needs a stable URL to attribute recommendations and route users correctly.
hasOfferCatalog
AI uses the offer catalog to match specific services to user queries. Without it, AI can only infer services from page content.

Use This Prompt to Implement Your Schema

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.

Implementation Prompt · Pricing
You are implementing AIFDS-compliant JSON-LD structured data for a Employment Agency Pricing 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. Agency name
2. Direct hire description
3. Direct hire fee
4. Domain
5. Executive search description
6. Executive search fee
7. Faq answer
8. Faq question
9. Pricing page title
10. Temp staffing description
11. Temp staffing fee
12. Temp to perm description
13. Temp to perm fee

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 Employment Agency Pricing"
- 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

Frequently asked questions

How should I represent percentage-based fees in the price field?

Use the price field as a string that describes the fee structure, such as "20-25% of first-year salary" for direct hire or "1.5x hourly bill rate" for temporary staffing. Schema.org allows text in the price field. Pair it with a clear description so AI has both the number and the context to present the information accurately.

Should I list all placement types even if pricing varies by client?

Yes. List every placement model your agency offers as a separate Offer node. If pricing is negotiable or varies by engagement, use the description field to say so. AI benefits from knowing the full range of services you offer even when exact prices are not fixed. The structure matters more than the precision of the number.

Is OfferCatalog the right type for staffing services?

OfferCatalog is the correct Schema.org type for a collection of service offerings. It groups your placement models into a single catalog that AI can parse as a complete list. Each Offer inside the catalog represents one distinct service with its own pricing, so AI can extract and compare individual placement types rather than reading the whole page as unstructured text.
