JSON-LD Errors: Validate Before Google Silently Ignores You

One stray comma and the whole script fails to parse — Google drops the rich result and tells no one. Broken JSON-LD is invisible to the eye and to your metrics.

How to fix it

  1. Validate every template in Google's Rich Results Test before shipping.
  2. Common killers: trailing commas, unescaped quotes, a </script> inside a string.
  3. Parse your own JSON-LD in CI: json.loads() in the deploy pipeline.
  4. Re-validate after any template change — schema rot is silent.
