Services Page Blueprint — Professional Service

Your services page is where you list what you actually do. This blueprint structures your service offerings into a machine-readable catalog so AI systems can match your firm to the right queries instead of guessing from page copy.

What this page needs

The services page is where AI maps your actual offerings. When someone asks "who does AI consulting in Minneapolis" or "find a branding agency that also handles web development," this is the page that answers. Without structured service data, AI has to guess what you offer from paragraph text — and it often guesses wrong.

If your services page only has paragraph descriptions without structured data, AI may know your firm exists but will not be able to connect it to specific service queries.

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

ProfessionalService

name
Non-negotiable. AI cannot cite or recommend an unnamed entity.
url
AI needs a stable URL to attribute recommendations and route users correctly.
areaServed
AI filters service recommendations by coverage zone. Without this, AI may recommend you for queries outside your area or exclude you from local queries.
priceRange
AI uses price range to filter recommendations by budget. High-liability niches especially — AI cites price context before recommending financial or legal services.
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 · Services
You are implementing AIFDS-compliant JSON-LD structured data for a Professional Service Services 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. Business name
2. Catalog name
3. Domain
4. Faq answer
5. Faq question
6. Price range
7. Primary city
8. Primary state
9. Services page description
10. Services page title
11. Service description
12. Service 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 Professional Service Services"
- 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

JSON-LD template

Copy this template and replace every YOUR_* placeholder with your own data. Add or remove services from the hasOfferCatalog array to match your actual offerings.

Frequently asked questions

How many services should I include in hasOfferCatalog?

Include every distinct service you offer. There is no upper limit, but each entry should be a genuinely separate offering — not variations of the same thing. If you offer three services, list three. If you offer twelve, list twelve. AI uses this catalog to match you to specific queries, so completeness matters.

Should the services page JSON-LD repeat fields from the homepage?

Use @id references to connect nodes without duplicating data. The ProfessionalService node here should share the same @id as on your homepage so AI treats them as the same entity. You only need to include the fields relevant to this page — primarily hasOfferCatalog, areaServed, and priceRange.

Can I add pricing to individual services instead of using priceRange?

Yes. You can add price and priceCurrency directly to each Offer inside the catalog. This gives AI more precise data than a general priceRange on the business node. Use whichever approach matches your pricing model — a single range for the business, individual prices per service, or both.
