About the Image Schema Generator

The Image Schema Generator creates schema.org ImageObject JSON-LD that describes a single image in detail. Enter the image URL, a caption, description, creator, credit line, licence URL and dimensions, and a valid script block is generated live — ideal for photos, illustrations and diagrams you want machines to understand.

ImageObject markup helps search engines attribute images correctly and surface licensing information, which can qualify a photo for the licensable-image treatment in Google Images. The creator and creditText fields make authorship explicit, and a license URL points to your usage terms.

The tool runs fully in your browser and omits any field you leave blank, so the output stays clean and valid. It suits photographers, publishers and developers marking up hero images, stock libraries and portfolio pages.

Frequently asked questions

What is ImageObject schema used for?

ImageObject is schema.org structured data that describes an individual image — its URL, caption, creator, credit and licence. Search engines use it to attribute images correctly and to show licensing details, and other schema types (Article, Product, Recipe) can reference an ImageObject instead of a bare URL.

How does image schema help with image SEO?

It makes an image's meaning, authorship and usage rights explicit rather than leaving search engines to guess from the file. Combined with descriptive alt text and a crawlable, fast-loading file, ImageObject markup can make a photo eligible for the licensable-image badge and richer treatment in Google Images.

What license fields does Google use for images?

Google looks for a 'license' property pointing to a page that states your usage terms, and optionally an 'acquireLicensePage' where users can obtain rights. Providing a license URL here is what makes an image eligible for the 'Licensable' label in Google Images.

Do I need width and height in ImageObject?

They're optional but recommended. Declaring width and height in pixels helps search engines understand the image's true resolution — Google prefers high-resolution images, generally at least 1200 px wide for rich results — and reinforces the dimensions of the file you're marking up.

Can I reference this ImageObject from other schema?

Yes. Rather than giving Article, Product or Recipe schema a plain image URL, you can supply a full ImageObject like the one generated here, complete with caption, creator and licence. Reusing one described image keeps your structured data consistent across a page.
