Free tool

Does your store expose accurate ecommerce structured data?

A schema checker should say exactly what it checked. StoreCited inspects raw HTML from the submitted public homepage and at most one representative product page discovered through homepage links. It detects the presence of Product, Offer, Review, AggregateRating, FAQPage, BreadcrumbList, and Organization JSON-LD types in that fetched sample. That is useful inventory, not complete validation. StoreCited does not certify required properties, factual accuracy, or agreement with visible content. It pairs type presence with a StoreCited readiness score and clear next checks, without presenting markup as observed ranking, citation, or recommendation performance.

What this checks

What StoreCited inspects — and what it does not

Which JSON-LD types are detected?

The free checker looks for Product, Offer, Review, AggregateRating, FAQPage, BreadcrumbList, and Organization types in raw HTML returned for the bounded public sample. A type can appear more than once or within a connected graph; the result is still a presence observation. StoreCited does not claim that every expected type belongs on every page. Product and Offer commonly describe commerce facts, while Review and AggregateRating require genuine supporting content. FAQPage should represent visible questions and answers. BreadcrumbList and Organization describe different entities and relationships. Presence alone does not establish valid properties, eligibility, or factual consistency.

How does the checker inspect a Shopify store?

StoreCited fetches the submitted homepage and may follow homepage links to at most one representative product page. The service returns raw HTML, Markdown, links, and metadata. JSON-LD detection uses the raw HTML; visible-content clues use Markdown. The checker does not enter the theme editor, inspect Shopify admin, crawl every product, or audit private catalog feeds. It also does not stand in for any named crawler. If a script is absent from the fetched raw HTML, StoreCited reports that absence for this sample. It does not declare that no other fetcher, page, rendering path, or platform channel can expose it.

What must be validated after type detection?

Open the live page and verify that every marked-up fact is visible, current, and owned by the correct entity. For Product and Offer, review identity, variant scope, URL, image, price, currency, availability, condition, seller, and identifiers where applicable. For Review or AggregateRating, confirm genuine visible reviews and correct aggregation. Check FAQPage text against the page, BreadcrumbList order against navigation, and Organization facts against public company details. Then apply Google's feature-specific guidance and open Schema.org vocabulary as relevant. StoreCited's presence result starts this work; it does not complete property or policy validation.

These official sources define the platform-specific controls and evidence limits behind this readiness check. StoreCited's result remains a dated observation of its own public fetch.

Frequently asked questions

Does StoreCited validate every Product schema field?
No. The free checker detects whether selected JSON-LD types appear in the fetched raw HTML. It does not certify every required or recommended property, verify each value, or confirm feature eligibility. Use the result as a type inventory, then validate Product and Offer properties against current Google documentation, Schema.org vocabulary, and the facts visible on the exact page.
Which schema types does the free checker look for?
It checks the fetched sample for Product, Offer, Review, AggregateRating, FAQPage, BreadcrumbList, and Organization JSON-LD types. These types serve different purposes and do not all belong on every page. A detected type means StoreCited found it in raw HTML; it does not mean the implementation is complete, accurate, or eligible for a particular feature.
Does schema presence mean the visible page is consistent?
No. JSON-LD can be present while its values disagree with visible price, availability, product identity, reviews, policies, or company facts. StoreCited's type check does not resolve that question. Compare every important property with the exact visible page and relevant source of truth, especially across variants, sale states, out-of-stock states, and template changes.
Does missing schema prove a product cannot appear in AI results?
No. StoreCited reports what its bounded fetch detected; it does not know every provider's retrieval, index, feed, or commerce channel. Missing markup is a prompt to inspect the page and decide whether accurate structured data belongs there. Adding it improves an explicit public representation when done correctly, but does not guarantee indexing, citation, recommendation, or sales.
Does the free scan check every Shopify product page?
No. It starts with the submitted homepage and may inspect at most one representative product page discovered from homepage links. Theme and app output can differ by template, product state, market, or variant. After reviewing the sample, test additional high-value products and edge states before treating a finding as site-wide or deploying a broad schema change.
