Acquire Better Search Rankings with How-To Schema and FAQ- Schema Blocks

Schema markup is an important part of the website since it helps search engines to understand the content on the page. This can result in higher search rankings with an increased click-through rate.

To help you display the complex content easily and to pull more traffic to the website, Spectra introduces two new awesome blocks –

  • How-to Schema
  • FAQ – Schema

As the name suggests these useful blocks come with in-build schema support. They offer ready to use a structure that will save you a lot of time in putting things together. You can fill the required content and go live in minimum efforts.

Let’s see what’s more exciting about these blocks.

How-to Schema

Imagine you need to write a step by step procedure to achieve a certain goal. To frame the process you will need many blocks like the main heading and description, required tools, materials, stepwise text and images, targeted results, etc. Well, this is not all. To make sure your content ranks higher in the search result you will need to add appropriate schema to the page manually.

So much to do, right?

To save you from this hassle How-to Schema block serves you all required things in one place along with inbuilt schema support.

This block can be used to describe the how-to procedures in tutorials, recipes, some routines, etc. You just need to add this block, fill your content and you’re done!

  1. I’m loving the new blocks! I haven’t used the FAQ Schema yet but I’m using the other new blocks like the WP Search. They are great. Thank you for your hard work.

    If there was a premium version for these blocks, I would definitely buy them.

    I’m probably asking for a bit too much, but I hope you could add the following blocks on the next big update (hopefully pretty soon):

    – Contact Form (Not for Contact Form 7 – But an individual lightweight form built into the Spectra Blocks)

    – I don’t know if the Table of Contents Block are SEO friendly. If not, I hope you could add that option too. Also some more appearance options would be nice. For reference you could take a look at the “LuckyWP Table of Contents” plugin.

    – Could you add support for Font Awesome icons for Inline Notice block? So that we can also add icons before the head line?

    – Also Font Awesome support for the Icon List block would be great

    – An Advanced Button Block (for singular button like on Qubely) would be nice.

    – This may be difficult, but I would like to see a Table block that is Mobile-Friendly and easy to use. I have lots of chart/tables I would like to add into my wordpress posts.

    – Vertical & Horizontal Tabs (I can probably say most people will want this).

    Thank you so much for these wonderful blocks. I’ve been using them on two of my sites and will use them more in my upcoming projects.

    More and more I work with Gutenberg, Spectra and Astra … a PRO version of Spectra would be nice !!!
    Also better Spectra compatibility with Toolset.
    Thank you!!!

    1. Glad that you are loving our plugin and theme, Wilfrido!

      We are hearing you about the Spectra Pro and wee do have lots of new things lined up. So stay tuned! 🙂

  3. Really cool blocks that can be used to rank posts faster in the Serps! Another block that would compliment these really well when writing review type posts would be a star ratings block with JSON LD Schema added 🙂
