Professional Services
Schema strategy for agencies, consultancies and freelancers — build authority and compete for service-specific searches.
Schema strategy for professional services
For agencies, consultancies, law firms, marketing professionals and freelancers, structured data helps Google understand exactly what you offer — and builds the E-E-A-T signals that matter in competitive professional niches.
Priority schemas
| Schema | Where | What it unlocks |
|---|---|---|
| **Organization** | Homepage | Knowledge Panel, brand recognition |
| **Service** | Each service page | Service name and provider in results |
| **Person** | Team member pages | E-E-A-T · professional Knowledge Panels |
| **FAQPage** | Service pages (objection handling) | Expandable questions in results |
| **Review** | Testimonials page | Star ratings in results |
What you gain
- Google understands what services you offer and for whom
- Service pages compete more effectively in service-specific searches
- Testimonials can display star ratings in results
- Person schemas for team members strengthen E-E-A-T — critical for legal, medical and financial services
Recommended setup flow
- Smart Builder → Organization on the homepage
- Smart Builder → Service schema on each service page — one per page, not one listing all services
- Smart Builder → Person for each team member or expert
- Smart Builder → FAQPage on each service page — use it to address common objections and questions
- Smart Builder → Review on the testimonials page
