MathSolver Schema Generator — Route Math Queries to Your App
Generate valid MathSolver JSON‑LD with SolveMathAction, including the EntryPoint URL template and example problems to showcase capability.
Why many solver pages underperform
Pain points we solve
- Search engines don’t know how to call your solver endpoint.
- The query parameter name is wrong or undocumented in markup.
- No representative examples make capabilities unclear.
- Manual JSON‑LD is inconsistent across solver landing pages.
How SwiftSchema helps
Solution
The generator outputs a SolveMathAction with an EntryPoint urlTemplate that includes `{math_expression}` and a `query-input` matching your parameter name.
It supports exampleOfWork entries to showcase typical expressions, plus publisher and image when available.
How it works
How it works
- Choose MathSolver in the generator below.
- Enter solver name and canonical URL.
- Provide a SolveMathAction with an EntryPoint urlTemplate using `{math_expression}` and set `query-input` to `required name=math_expression` (or your param).
- Add exampleOfWork items with representative expression strings.
- Copy JSON or Script, paste on the solver page, and validate in the Rich Results Test.
Paste on your solver landing page. Validate. Ship.
What is MathSolver structured data?
MathSolver combines a
Think of the JSON-LD as an API contract. It tells crawlers, “When you have a math expression, call this EntryPoint with this parameter, and here are example problems we excel at.” Without it, even a powerful solver might look like a thin landing page with generic copy. With it, you demonstrate capability, trustworthiness, and readiness to handle structured queries.
Why solver markup matters
- Better routing: Search engines can deep-link into your solver, improving engagement and reducing bounce rates from generic landing pages.
- Capability signaling: exampleOfWorkentries prove you support algebra, calculus, matrices, etc., which helps search quality teams distinguish you from spammy, thin “solvers.”
- Operational clarity: Structured data forces you to document parameter names, supported languages, and canonical endpoints — reducing drift between engineering and marketing.
- Automation: Once the schema exists, you can build automated tests that confirm every deployment includes the right action template and examples.
Essential properties to include
- @type: KeepMathSolveras the primary type; optionally addSoftwareApplicationif you want to surface app metadata.
- nameandurl: Use the brand name of the solver and the canonical landing page URL.
- potentialAction(SolveMathAction):
- target: EntryPoint object withurlTemplatecontaining{math_expression}or your chosen placeholder. Example:https://example.com/solve?q={math_expression}.
- inLanguageoractionPlatform: If you support specific languages or platforms, declare them.
- query-input:required name=math_expression(or whatever parameter name your API expects). Ensure the placeholder in the template matches this string.
- exampleOfWork: CreativeWork entries that showcase typical problems (linear equations, integrals, word problems). Includetextand optionalurlto worked solutions.
- publisher: Organization or Person running the solver. AddlogoandsameAsto reinforce credibility.
- image: Screenshot or icon representing the solver UI.
- isBasedOn/softwareRequirements(optional): Document engines or libraries you rely on (e.g., SymPy, CAS).
Capturing these fields ensures search engines view your solver as robust, not a thin affiliate page.
Preparing content before generating schema
- Document your solver endpoint: Confirm the exact URL pattern, HTTP method, and parameter name(s). Decide whether you’ll support GET with querystrings, POST bodies, or both (Schema prefers GET with urlTemplate).
- Curate example problems: List 5–10 expressions that represent different difficulty levels and topics. Include both the expression and, if possible, a link to a solution page or explanation.
- Gather visuals: Capture a high-resolution screenshot of the solver interface or app icon for the imageproperty.
- Confirm publisher info: Have the organization name, logo, sameAs profiles, and contact info ready.
- Define language support: Note which locales you support (en, es, fr, etc.). Search engines prioritize solvers that clearly state language capabilities.
- Outline onboarding flow: Understand what happens after someone lands from a deep link (terms acceptance, login). Reference it in your page copy so the structured data doesn’t overpromise.
These prep steps ensure the landing page offers substantive content: feature overview, sample problems, privacy details, and support info, all aligned with the JSON-LD.
Implementation workflow inside SwiftSchema
- Select MathSolver in the generator.
- Enter the solver name, canonicalurl, and optionalimage.
- Configure potentialAction:
- Set type to SolveMathAction.
- Provide an EntryPoint urlTemplatewith{math_expression}placeholder.
- Set query-inputtorequired name=math_expression(or your custom parameter).
- Add inLanguageif relevant.
- Set type to
- Add exampleOfWorkentries. Use short, descriptive text (“Solve 2x + 3 = 7,” “Integrate sin(x) dx,” “Find eigenvalues of [[2,1],[1,2]]”) and optional URLs to explanation pages.
- Attach publisherinformation, including logo and sameAs links for trust.
- Export the JSON-LD, embed it on your solver landing page, and pair it with WebPage or SoftwareApplication schema as needed.
- Validate using Google’s Rich Results Test and rerun whenever you change the endpoint or action parameters.
Troubleshooting and QA
- Parameter mismatch: If the placeholder in urlTemplatedoesn’t matchquery-input, search engines won’t route queries correctly. Keep a single source of truth for parameter names.
- Non-HTTPS endpoints: Always use HTTPS for solver URLs. HTTP endpoints may be ignored.
- Missing examples: Pages without exampleOfWorkrisk being flagged as thin or untrustworthy. Ensure you showcase diverse problems.
- Unavailable endpoint: If your solver is behind auth or rate-limited, provide fallback behavior or ensure the EntryPoint remains accessible to crawlers.
- Language mismatch: Declare inLanguageaccurately. If you only support English but listesorfr, you’ll frustrate users and risk quality downgrades.
- Outdated branding: Keep publisherandimageassets aligned with your product; rebrands require updating both.
Automate QA by running smoke tests that fetch the JSON-LD, extract the
Maintenance and scaling
Math solvers evolve — new problem types, API versions, UI redesigns. Whenever you ship material changes, update both the landing page content and structured data. Keep
- Verify the EntryPoint still works and uses HTTPS.
- Refresh example problems to reflect new capabilities (e.g., 3D graphing, differential equations).
- Update screenshots and logos after UI overhauls.
- Confirm publisher metadata (company name, sameAs links) remains accurate.
If you localize the solver, create per-locale pages with localized exampleOfWork entries and
Common Errors & Fixes
- Wrong query param: use {math_expression}and match your endpoint’s parameter.
- Missing EntryPoint: wrap the target URL in an EntryPoint with urlTemplate.
- No examples: provide a few representative expressions to guide usage.
- Non-HTTPS or blocked endpoints: ensure your solver is accessible and not disallowed by robots.txt.
- Outdated publisher data: keep organization names, logos, and sameAs links current.
