For example, if you provide information on how to tile a kitchen backsplash, tie a tie, or build a treehouse, you can add How-to structured data to your pages to enable the page to appear as a rich result on Search and a How-to Action for the Assistant. <br /> <br /> Add structured data to the steps, tools, duration, and other properties to enable a How-to rich result for your content on the search page. If your page uses images or video for each step, make sure to mark up your visual content to enhance the preview and expose a more visual representation of your content to users.

This feature lets you expand your content to new surfaces, to help users complete tasks wherever they are, and interactively progress through the steps using voice commands.<br /> <br /> As shown in the Google Home Hub example below, the Assistant provides a conversational, hands-free experience that can help users complete a task. This is an incredibly lightweight way for web developers to expand their content to the Assistant.

For example, an FAQ page on an e-commerce website might provide answers on shipping destinations, purchase options, return policies, and refund processes. By using FAQPage structured data, you can make your content eligible to display these questions and answers to display directly on Google Search and the Assistant, helping users to quickly find answers to frequently asked questions.<br /> <br /> FAQ structured data is only for official questions and answers; don't add FAQ structured data on forums or other pages where users can submit answers to questions - in that case, use the <a href="https://developers.google.com/search/docs/data-types/qapage">Q&A Page markup</a>.<br /> <br /> You can learn more about implementation details in the <a href="https://developers.google.com/search/docs/data-types/faqpage">FAQ developer documentation</a>.<br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-FUQKOc-DCEVpu1zy52BjcV299HDNvR8yfhRuS8v8LM-dGMFBIgtl5GXt6TNIkyjd6scj2bWxQ2fHYtU8QJsuXzZ5Jw5V14OZiI53RDvAtY9iVgOspmCIMcKSdfyFTtxfvrts/s1600/Q%2526A-Page-markup.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="FAQ on Search" border="0" data-original-height="948" data-original-width="814" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-FUQKOc-DCEVpu1zy52BjcV299HDNvR8yfhRuS8v8LM-dGMFBIgtl5GXt6TNIkyjd6scj2bWxQ2fHYtU8QJsuXzZ5Jw5V14OZiI53RDvAtY9iVgOspmCIMcKSdfyFTtxfvrts/s400/Q%2526A-Page-markup.png" title="" width="342" /></a></div> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <br /></div> To provide more ways for users to access your content, FAQ answers can also be surfaced on the Google Assistant.
