Every section of your content should have an FAQ

FAQs are a must-have in every section of your Content. Google has a recommended Schema for FAQ. You can find it on Google Search Central. It's a priority to appear in LLM search results today. Google has a clear structure for Q&A and FAQ sections of your content pages and I've outlined it in detail below.

I've summarized what you need for FAQ's below into four easy steps and I've included a Sample FAQ section. 

·       Like in other areas, they recommend focusing on the user first to solve their problems. Research the questions consumers are asking and provide valuable, unique insights and Content that demonstrates your expertise on the subject. 

·       Structure your Content for ease and readability. Organize your topics, use clear questions formatted with H2 and H3 headings, and provide short, concise answers. For longer answers, include a TL; DR: or summary. 

·       It must be readable on all devices and, when applicable, leverage structured data, the FAQ Page, or QA Page schema markup to ensure the rich snippet includes your QA content.   

·       Also, like several of Google's new AIO (AI Optimization) recommendations, they want the Content to be regularly updated and reviewed to ensure it is relevant, accurate, and up to date. Also, include your E-E-A-T + Content Authority Keywords here. 

At the end of the day, Google wants to see that you're providing the best experience and most insightful Content for your audience, which includes providing an FAQ about your article. 

Below is a sample FAQ for LLM Search. Most sections in this guide will have at least one Q&A section so that you can become familiar with them. You must include an FAQ for your Content to appear in AI search results. 

Q&A SECTION NEEDED FOR LLM SEARCH

Q: Do I still need long-form Content for SEO?

A: Yes, but break it into modular, scannable chunks. Long-form still ranks, but structured depth now trumps sheer length.

Q: Can I measure success with AI SEO?

A: Partially. You'll need to track:

·       AI Overview citations (manually or with third-party tools)

·       Server logs for LLM bot activity

·       Referral spikes from new domains (LLMs can link obscure Content)

Q: What if my site has low authority?

A: That matters less than it used to. If your Content is explicit, structured, and covers key intent topics, then it will be cited over higher-ranking sites.
