Breadcrumb Schema Generator

How to use

1. 1Pick an input mode: From URL to auto-build the trail from a page URL, or Manual list to add each step by hand.
2. 2In From URL mode, paste the page URL and click Build breadcrumbs from URL. The path is split into steps, slugs are humanized into labels, and a Home step is prepended.
3. 3Edit the name and URL of any step. Use the Up, Down, and Remove buttons to reorder, and Add step to extend the list.
4. 4Read the visual preview to confirm the trail reads correctly, then check the Checks panel for warnings about missing names, non-absolute URLs, or duplicate steps.
5. 5Switch the Output tabs to JSON-LD, Microdata, or RDFa, then click Copy to copy the markup into your page template (JSON-LD goes near the closing body tag or in the head).

About this tool

Breadcrumb Schema Generator builds schema.org BreadcrumbList markup that tells Google how the current page sits inside your site hierarchy. A correctly marked-up breadcrumb is what unlocks the small grey path that appears under the page title in Google's search results (instead of a raw URL), so it is one of the highest-ROI pieces of structured data for any blog, documentation site, eCommerce store, or recipe site. The tool offers two ways to build the list. From URL mode takes any page URL such as https://example.com/blog/web-development/css-grid-explained and splits the path into ordered steps. The origin becomes a Home step, every path segment becomes its own step, hyphens and underscores are converted to spaces, and the slug is humanized into Title Case (with common acronyms like CSS, HTML, SEO, and API kept upper case and short connector words like of, the, and to kept lower case in the middle of the label). Each step's href is the running prefix up to that segment, so the path reconstructs exactly. Manual list mode lets you add, edit, reorder (up and down), and remove name plus URL pairs by hand, useful when the page does not map cleanly to its URL path (custom categories, gated content, single-page apps). Three output formats are produced in parallel: JSON-LD (the form Google recommends, wrapped in a script type=application/ld+json block ready to paste before the closing body tag or inside the head), HTML microdata (an ordered list with itemscope, itemtype, and itemprop attributes, useful when JSON-LD is not an option), and RDFa (an alternative inline syntax using vocab and typeof attributes). A live visual preview renders the trail exactly as a user would read it, with the final step shown as the current page (no link, bold) and earlier steps as links to their URLs. Built-in checks flag empty names, empty URLs, non-absolute URLs (BreadcrumbList items must be full http or https URLs, not paths), duplicate URLs, very long labels, and steps that point to a different host. Everything runs locally in your browser; the URLs and labels you enter are never uploaded.
