First Steps
The recommended setup sequence after installing Schemafy — from your first schema to a fully optimized site.
Recommended setup sequence
Week 1 — Build the foundation
Day 1:
- Open the Dashboard → check current schema coverage (likely 0%)
- Smart Builder → create an Organization schema for your homepage (name, URL, logo, social profiles, contact email)
- If you have a physical location: Smart Builder → LocalBusiness schema (address, phone, hours, coordinates)
Days 2–3:
- Meta Tags Manager → configure title and description for your 10 most-visited pages
- Check Open Graph previews for your main pages — control what appears when shared on social
Days 4–7:
- Smart Builder → create schemas for your key service or product pages
- Rich Snippets Manager → Validate All → fix any errors before Google finds them
The 4 ways to create schemas
| Method | Plan | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| **Smart Builder** | Free+ | All users — visual forms, 17 types, templates |
| **Manual JSON Editor** | Basic+ | Advanced users who want full JSON control |
| **Auto-Generator** | Mid+ | Sites with many pages — scans up to 500 at once |
| **AI Generator** | Pro | Fastest creation — AI reads the page and fills every field |
Your first schema (step by step)
- Go to Schemafy → Smart Builder
- Select Organization as the schema type
- Load the "Basic Organization" template
- Fill in: company name, site URL, logo, description
- Under "Select URL" choose your homepage
- Click Save
The schema is live immediately — injected into your homepage on the next page load.
