How to Create a FAQ Page that Drives Traffic - Suffari

A well-crafted FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) page isn’t just a customer service tool — it’s an untapped goldmine for SEO, user engagement, and traffic growth. When built strategically, a FAQ page can rank for long-tail keywords, earn featured snippets, support internal linking, and even appear in AI Overviews and “People Also Ask” boxes.

In this guide, we’ll show you exactly how to create a high-performing FAQ page — from formatting and schema to keyword research and page optimization — that not only answers questions but drives measurable traffic to your website.

Table of Contents

What Are FAQs?

FAQs are concise, informative answers to the most common questions your audience has about your products, services, or industry. They help users make informed decisions, reduce customer service load, and improve trust in your brand.

For example:

• Q: How much does your service cost?

• A: Our website management plans start at $399/month and include 2 hours of development support.

FAQs can be broad or extremely niche. The key is making them useful, relevant, and easy to scan.

FAQ Examples

Here are different types of FAQ formats:

• Single-topic FAQs: A page focused on questions about a specific topic (e.g., “SEO FAQs” or “WordPress Plugin FAQs”).

• Sectioned master FAQ page: One page with links to multiple sub-topics (e.g., Suffari’s master FAQ that links to categories like web design, SEO, domains, etc.).

• In-page accordions: Great for eCommerce product pages or service landing pages.

• Contextual FAQs: Embedded Q&As within blog posts, service pages, or sales funnels.

FAQ or FAQs: What’s the Difference?

“FAQ” is singular (“Frequently Asked Question”) while “FAQs” refers to multiple questions. Both are used interchangeably in digital content, but for clarity:

• Use “FAQ” when referring to a section (e.g., “Our FAQ page”).

• Use “FAQs” when referencing multiple questions (e.g., “These FAQs cover our process”).

Search engines understand both, so focus on consistency and what sounds natural for your audience.

What Is a FAQ Page?

A FAQ page is a centralized location on your website where users can find answers to common questions. It builds trust, reduces friction, and improves your site's authority in search results. A good FAQ page can support your sales process, reduce bounce rates, and help your site rank for informational queries.

What to Put on a FAQ Page

Here's a breakdown of essential elements every FAQ page should include:

Title

Clear, keyword-optimized, and user-friendly. Avoid just “FAQ” — describe the content (e.g., “Website Management FAQs”).

Search Bar

If you have a lot of questions on your FAQ page, then you should always add a search bar for users to easily find questions and answers. This improves UX, reduces bounce rate, and supports better engagement on longer FAQ pages.

Intro Paragraph

A short, friendly paragraph that explains what kind of questions you’re answering and how users can use the page. It sets expectations and can improve on-page SEO when you include target keywords naturally.

Table of Contents Linked to Each Section or Question

For a better user experience, adding a table of contents can help users get to their answers without scrolling. Use jump links or anchor tags, and structure your sections clearly.

Sections (if applicable)

If you have a lot of questions and want to improve user experience, you may want to break up your page into sections about each topic. Here's some examples:

• Web Design

• SEO

• Email Marketing

• Content Creation

• WordPress

Each section can link out to its own dedicated page or be part of one long-scroll experience.

Frequently Asked Questions

Write descriptive, specific questions with direct and to-the-point answers. Focus on search intent and match how people ask questions online.

FAQ Page Title

Here’s how to write an effective FAQ page title:

• Include your primary keyword or service.

• Be clear about the scope (“FAQs About Our Services” is better than just “FAQs”).

• Keep it concise (under 60 characters for SEO).

When to Brand Your FAQ Title and When to Leave It Generic

Use branding in your title when:

• You're a local business competing in your city.

• You’re building branded search relevance (e.g., “Suffari Website Management FAQs”).

Keep it generic when:

• The page targets broad, national queries.

• The content is focused on industry-wide answers (e.g., “SEO FAQs”).

Example:

• Good: “Website Design FAQs – Suffari”

• Bad: “Suffari | Website Design Frequently Asked Questions for Every Industry and Customer Type in 2025” (too long, too vague)

Search Bar

If you have a lot of questions on your FAQ page, then you should always add a search bar for users to easily find questions and answers.
This is especially important for large FAQ pages with multiple topics. A search feature allows users to quickly locate answers without scrolling endlessly, improving both user experience (UX) and time-on-page — two indirect SEO signals that can help your page rank better.

💡 Tip: If your CMS doesn’t support an FAQ-specific search, use a filtered search plugin or tool like Jetpack Search, Relevanssi, or a custom JavaScript input field that anchors to matching headings.

Intro Paragraph

Here’s what to include in a FAQ page intro paragraph:

• A short explanation of what this page covers.

• A reassurance that visitors can quickly find the help they need.

• A note about how they can contact you or submit more questions.

Example:
"Have questions about our services, platforms, or policies? We’ve compiled answers to the most common questions we get from clients, partners, and new visitors. Use the search bar or browse by topic below."

This intro can also help your page appear in AI Overviews and rich snippets by naturally including your main keywords and services.

Table of Contents (linked to each section or question)

For a better User Experience, adding a table of contents (TOC) can help users get to their answers without scrolling. A TOC should:

• Link to each major section (if your page has categories).

• Or link to each individual FAQ question (if fewer questions).

• Be placed just below your intro for easy access.

How to make a FAQ page TOC that goes down to text

Use an anchor structure like:

<a href="#email-marketing">Email Marketing FAQs</a>

You'll need to label the ID of the section as well to match the anchor "email-marketing", so it scrolls down to that section.

Here is the html version

<div id="email-marketing">

<h2>Email Marketing FAQs</h2>

</div>

Or use a plugin like Easy Table of Contents to automate this if you're using WordPress.

This also boosts accessibility and may increase your page’s engagement metrics (clicks, scrolls, time-on-page), signaling to Google that your page is helpful.

Sections (if applicable)

If you have a lot of questions and want to improve user experience, break up your page into sections by topic. This helps users scan and jump to the content they care about most.

Here are some section examples based on service or topic:

• Web Design FAQs

• SEO & Search Visibility

• WordPress & Plugins

• Email Marketing & Automation

• AI Tools & Content Creation

• Domains & Branding

These sections can be:

• In-page headings (H2s or H3s).

• Or links to full subpages (e.g., /faq/seo, /faq/shopify, etc.).

🔍 SEO Tip: Each section heading is a chance to include a long-tail keyword.

Frequently Asked Questions

Write descriptive, specific questions with direct and to-the-point answers. Your goal is to match how people actually search in Google or via voice assistants.

• Use natural language phrasing (“How does website management work?” instead of “Website management?”).

• Structure your content in Q&A format with HTML or schema markup.

• Start answers with a short, snippet-ready sentence, then expand.

How long or how many words should an FAQ answer be?

The best practice is:

• Start with a concise 1–2 sentence answer (ideal for rich snippets).

• Follow up with additional context (optional).

• Total: 40–100 words per answer is ideal, but prioritize clarity over word count.

How many FAQs should you include on your page?

There’s no perfect number, but:

• 5–15 questions per section is manageable.

• For large FAQ hubs, use categories to break content into smaller pages.

• Avoid dumping 100+ questions on a single page unless the UX is thoughtfully structured.

How does a Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) page on a company’s website help build customer trust?

An effective FAQ page:

• Shows transparency and a willingness to help.

• Demonstrates expertise by answering real concerns.

• Saves users time — which builds confidence in your company.

• Reduces bounce rate, signaling value to Google.

Submit a Question Form

By adding a form so users can submit their own questions, you can:

• Discover real user intent and new questions you hadn’t considered.

• Grow your email or SMS subscriber list.

• Build return traffic by notifying users when their question has been added.

• Improve customer engagement and trust.

Pro Tip: Use automation to send a thank-you message and ask if they want to be notified when the answer is posted.

Additional Resources

At the bottom of your FAQ page, add content that encourages users to explore more or take action. Examples:

• Call to action (CTA) for scheduling a consultation.

• Most recent blog posts.

• Links to related service/product pages.

• A newsletter signup form.

• Downloadable resources or lead magnets.

This section transforms your FAQ page from a “dead end” into a conversion opportunity and helps with internal linking.

How to Write an Effective FAQ Page to Increase Traffic

Creating a FAQ page isn’t just about listing questions. To actually drive organic traffic, your page must be structured, optimized, and aligned with how users search. This section breaks down the SEO strategies and best practices to help your FAQ page rank well and bring in consistent traffic.

Create a Dedicated FAQ Page

Instead of burying your FAQs at the bottom of your homepage or contact page, create a standalone FAQ page that:

• Can rank independently for FAQ-related queries.

• Can be submitted to Google Search Console.

• Serves as a centralized destination for internal links and schema.

Bonus Tip: If your business offers multiple services, consider creating individual FAQ pages for each service (e.g., /faq/seo, /faq/web-design).

Conduct Keyword Research

Before writing your questions, identify what people are actually asking online. Use keyword research tools to uncover high-volume, low-competition questions. Focus on long-tail queries and phrases that appear in:

• People Also Ask (PAA)

• Reddit and Quora threads

• Google’s Autocomplete and Related Searches

Tools to use:

• Ahrefs (use “Questions” report under Keyword Explorer)

• SEMrush (Topic Research or Keyword Magic Tool)

• Google Keyword Planner

• AlsoAsked.com and AnswerThePublic

How to use Ahrefs to find high-volume questions?

1. Open Ahrefs Keyword Explorer.

2. Enter your broad topic (e.g., “email marketing”).

3. Click on the Questions tab to filter for question-based keywords.

4. Sort by Volume or KD (Keyword Difficulty).

5. Export relevant questions and group them by intent or topic.

How to find People Also Ask questions on a topic?

Use a tool like AlsoAsked.com or:

1. Google your topic.

2. Note the People Also Ask questions that appear.

3. Click on them to expand and reveal more related questions.

4. Build a list — these are gold for real searcher intent.

Make a List of Questions Commonly Searched by Users. Be Specific.

The more specific and natural your questions are, the better your chances of showing up in AI Overviews and PAA boxes.

✅ Examples:

• Instead of: “Pricing?”

• Use: “How much does website management cost per month?”

Write for how people speak or type, especially with the rise of voice search and AI models pulling from web content.

Use AI Tools to Answer Questions in Bulk

AI tools like ChatGPT can help you:

• Draft clear, factual answers faster.

• Suggest variations of your questions.

• Reword long answers into concise summaries for snippet optimization.

Use AI to generate first drafts, but always:

• Edit for accuracy and tone

• Add personal or business-specific insights

• Avoid AI “hallucinations” or incorrect information

Know When and When Not to Use Branding Within Your Questions and Answers

Use branding:

• When answering questions specific to your company, services, or policies.

• On branded FAQ pages or customer support content.

Avoid branding:

• When targeting general informational search traffic.

• When you want your content pulled into AI Overviews or rich snippets (Google often filters out overly promotional answers).

For a full breakdown, see the best practices in our article: Best Practices for Adding Your Branding to FAQ Content (for SEO & Visibility in AI/PAA).

Organize Your FAQ Page

Creating a clear and concise structure is critical — both for users and search engines. Organize your questions:

• Into logical sections or categories

• With H2s/H3s/H4s to define hierarchy

• In a way that reflects common user journeys or purchase paths

Use anchor links, accordions, or tabs if you have many sections. The easier it is to navigate, the more engagement you’ll get.

Add Your FAQs on a Dedicated Page (or Pages) in an Organized Fashion

• If you serve multiple industries or have complex products, split your FAQs into multiple pages by topic, industry, or audience.

• Keep each page focused on one topic for better SEO.

• Link to these from a master FAQ page to build internal structure.

Optimize Your FAQ Page for SEO

For maximum search visibility:

• Use proper heading tags (H1 = page title, H2 = sections, H3 = questions).

• Add a unique meta title and description with keywords.

• Use internal links to blog posts, service pages, or contact forms.

Don’t forget to optimize images (if used) with alt text and compressed file sizes.

Add FAQ Schema

Use structured data (JSON-LD or FAQPage schema) to tell search engines that your content is a list of Q&As. This enables rich results like:

• Google’s People Also Ask boxes

• AI Overviews

• Enhanced FAQ snippet visibility in search

You can add FAQ schema using:

• SEO plugins (Rank Math, Yoast, AIOSEO)

• Page builders with FAQ widgets that support schema

• Google Tag Manager (for custom setups or limited CMSs)

Publish the Page

After optimizing and reviewing your content, publish the FAQ page. Make sure:

• The URL is readable (e.g., /faq or /frequently-asked-questions)

• The slug matches your target keywords

• Your sitemap is updated

Add a FAQs Link to Your Main Menu and Footer

This improves:

• Crawlability for search engines

• Navigation for users

• Trust (especially on service-based or eCommerce sites)

Include FAQ links on your:

• Main nav (e.g., under “Support” or “Company”)

• Footer (next to contact, privacy, terms, etc.)

Submit Your FAQ Page URL to Google Search Console for Indexing

After publishing:

1. Go to Google Search Console.

2. Paste your FAQ URL into the URL Inspection Tool.

3. Click “Request Indexing.”

This speeds up indexing and helps Google recognize your schema.

Track Keyword Rankings, Rich Snippet Performance, Impressions, and Clicks/Traffic

Use tools like:

• Google Search Console for clicks, impressions, and CTR.

• Ahrefs or SEMrush to track rankings and rich snippet visibility.

• GA4 to monitor engagement and conversions from your FAQ page.

Monitor performance over time and adjust content as new questions arise.

Keep It Updated Regularly and Add New Questions as They Come In from Clients

The best FAQ pages evolve. Regularly:

• Add new questions based on support inquiries, chatbots, or search trends.

• Improve answers as your business changes.

• Update outdated or low-performing entries.

📌 Make this part of your monthly website maintenance checklist.

Promote Your Page via Email or Social Media for Additional Traffic

Don’t just publish and forget it. Promote your FAQ page:

• In email campaigns (“Got questions? We’ve got answers.”)

• On social media (“Check out our updated SEO FAQs”)

• On relevant blog posts or landing pages

This not only drives traffic but increases authority and trust signals to Google.

What If Your FAQ Page Has a Lot of Questions?

Having too many questions on one FAQ page can hurt usability. Visitors may feel overwhelmed or struggle to find what they’re looking for — especially on mobile. If your FAQ content is growing, it's time to think about structure.

Here are two scalable solutions:

Multiple FAQ Pages

If your FAQ page is overflowing with content, it’s better to create a main hub page that links to separate FAQ pages by topic, product, or service.

Structure Example:

• /faq/ → Master FAQ hub with section links like:

  • “→ Web Design FAQs”

  • “→ SEO FAQs”

  • “→ Email Marketing FAQs”

• Each link leads to a dedicated page:

  • /faq/seo

  • /faq/web-design

  • /faq/wordpress

Benefits:

• Easier navigation and better UX

• Each page can be optimized for specific keywords

• More opportunities for rich snippets and AI inclusion

SEO Bonus: Each topic page can rank independently for queries like:

• “Best email marketing tools FAQ”

• “Shopify store setup FAQ”

🧠 Tip: Link to these from product pages, blog posts, and your site footer for strong internal SEO.

FAQ Page Broken Into Sections

If you prefer to keep everything on one page, break it into clearly labeled sections with anchors.

Format:

• H2s for each main topic (e.g., “WordPress Plugins FAQs”)

• H3s for questions under each section

• A sticky table of contents or floating nav for quick access

Design Tips:

• Use accordions or collapsible sections to reduce scrolling

• Add a floating “Back to Top” button

• Keep questions grouped under relevant headers to reduce clutter

This keeps the page manageable for both users and search engines, and it’s especially useful if you’re using FAQ schema for each question.

⚠️ Caution: Don’t try to add 300+ FAQs on one page without great structure and fast page load — it may overwhelm users and hurt rankings.

FAQs 101: Tips for Beginners

If you're building your first FAQ page, it's easy to focus only on the questions you think people want answered. But to build a page that’s useful, engaging, and optimized for traffic, start with the fundamentals.

These beginner-friendly tips will help you write a solid FAQ page, even if you’re not an SEO expert or web developer.

Answer the Most Common Questions

Focus on answering the real questions your audience is already asking. Use:

• Customer service emails or live chat transcripts

• Social media comments or DMs

• Google’s “People Also Ask” section

• FAQs from competitors

Prioritize:

• Pre-sale objections (e.g., “How long does it take?”)

• Product or service concerns (e.g., “What’s included?”)

• Process clarification (e.g., “What happens after I sign up?”)

🧠 Pro Tip: If a question comes up more than once in your inbox, it belongs on your FAQ page.

Use a Conversational Tone

Write your FAQ page in a friendly, approachable tone that resonates with your audience. Avoid jargon, legalese, or stiff corporate speak unless you're writing for a highly technical or regulated field.

✅ Do this:

Q: How long does setup take?
A: We usually launch most websites in 10–14 days. More complex sites may take a little longer, but we’ll keep you updated the whole time.

🚫 Not this:

A: The onboarding and deployment process duration is contingent upon the technical and administrative requirements outlined in your service level agreement.

Make It Scannable

Most visitors are skimming — not reading. Make your FAQ page scannable by:

• Using short paragraphs

• Breaking long content into bullet points

• Keeping headings bold and descriptive

• Highlighting keywords or phrases (sparingly)

A clean, well-structured layout with lots of white space improves readability and makes your content more digestible — especially on mobile.

Include Visuals

Visuals help break up long blocks of text and make complex answers easier to understand.

Add:

• Screenshots (for tutorials or walkthroughs)

• Icons (next to question categories)

• Videos (for product demos or how-tos)

• Infographics (for comparisons or data)

🎥 Bonus SEO Tip: Embed YouTube videos for certain FAQs — this can increase engagement and help you rank in both search and video results.

Even one or two well-placed visuals can make a major difference in how long users stay on your page.

How to Drive Traffic to Your FAQs Page

A great FAQ page isn’t just helpful — it can become a traffic-generating powerhouse. With proper optimization, schema, and strategic promotion, your FAQ page can show up in featured snippets, voice search, Google’s AI Overview, and “People Also Ask” results.

Here’s how to maximize traffic to your FAQ content.

FAQ Schema Markup

Use schema markup (also known as structured data) to help search engines understand the structure of your FAQ content. Adding FAQPage schema can trigger rich results in Google — expanding your visibility and increasing clicks.

Search results with FAQ schema:

• Occupy more screen space

• Include collapsible question/answer previews

• Boost click-through rate by 30%+ in some cases

How to Get Your FAQs to Show Up in AI Overview and People Also Ask Rich Snippets?

To appear in AI Overviews or People Also Ask (PAA):

• Use natural language questions as H3s or strong text identifiers

• Answer questions in a clear, 1–2 sentence summary first

• Follow up with additional detail if needed

• Add FAQ schema using your CMS or plugin

• Avoid promotional or overly branded language (AI filters that out)

• Submit your page to Google Search Console for indexing

Focus on answering real user intent, not just adding fluff. The more helpful your answers are, the more likely they’ll be pulled into AI summaries or featured in the PAA box.

How to Add FAQ Schema If My Website Builder Doesn’t Allow Schema on the Page Level

If your site builder (like GoHighLevel, Shopify, Wix, or some WordPress themes) doesn’t let you insert schema directly into the page’s HTML, you can use Google Tag Manager (GTM) to add schema externally.

Here’s a high-level process:

1. Create a JSON-LD schema snippet (you can use tools like Merkle’s Schema Generator).

2. In GTM, create a new tag:

   • Tag type: Custom HTML

   • Paste your schema inside a <script type="application/ld+json"> block

3. Trigger the tag to fire on your FAQ page only

4. Save, test, and publish

This works for any platform — even ones without built-in schema support.

🛠 We’ve included a step-by-step tutorial in our [GoHighLevel Schema Guide] — but the same method works for most platforms.

Optimize for SEO

Ensure your FAQ page is optimized for search engines by:

• Targeting relevant keywords in your questions and answers

• Including a well-written meta title and meta description

• Using heading tags (H1, H2, H3) properly

• Optimizing images with alt text and compressed sizes

• Internally linking to and from your FAQ page

Heading Tags

Add the proper heading tags to each section and question. For example:

• H1: Frequently Asked Questions

• H2: Topic Section (e.g., “SEO FAQs”)

• H3: Individual Questions

• H4: Sub-questions or related points (optional)

Consistent heading structure helps both Google and screen readers understand your content.

Add Internal Links

Internal linking boosts SEO, distributes link equity across your site, and keeps users engaged longer.

Add Internal Links to Your FAQ Page

Link to your FAQ page from:

• Service pages

• Product pages

• Blog posts

• Contact or support pages

• Navigation menus and footer

This increases its authority and ensures it’s easily crawlable.

Add Internal Links on Your FAQ Page Linking to Other Relevant Pages

Where appropriate, link from an FAQ answer to:

• Blog articles for deeper learning

• Related product or service pages

• Contact or pricing pages

Example:

"We typically launch websites within 10–14 days. Learn more about our [website development process here]."

Avoid Link Loops

Be careful not to link FAQ A to FAQ B, then link FAQ B right back to FAQ A with no other purpose — this creates link loops that confuse crawlers and don’t add value. Make sure every internal link has a clear purpose.

Promote Your FAQ Page

Treat your FAQ page like any other important content asset. Promote it to increase discovery and build backlinks.

Ways to promote:

• Email newsletters (“New to Suffari? Check out our top FAQs!”)

• Social media posts or stories linking to the page

• Link in your onboarding or support emails

• Include it in customer support responses

📣 You can even run retargeting ads to people who visited your FAQ page but didn’t convert.

Optimize for Voice Search

More users are asking questions via voice assistants like Siri, Alexa, and Google Assistant — especially on mobile.

To make your FAQ page voice-search friendly:

• Use conversational phrasing

• Answer in clear, concise language

• Focus on long-tail, question-based keywords

• Use schema to help Google identify the Q&A structure

Example:
Instead of “refunds,” use:
Q: Can I get a refund if I cancel my website plan?

FAQ Page Maintenance and Growth

Publishing your FAQ page is just the beginning. To keep it effective and ranking, you need to maintain and grow it over time. Search intent evolves, services change, and user behavior shifts — your FAQ page should reflect that.

Ongoing maintenance ensures your FAQ page:

• Remains relevant and trustworthy

• Continues to rank for fresh keywords

• Captures new user questions for traffic growth

Here’s how to keep your FAQ content alive and thriving:

Keep It Up-to-Date

Outdated answers can confuse users and hurt your credibility. Regularly review your FAQ content to:

• Remove or revise outdated answers

• Update pricing, features, or process details

• Refresh screenshots or visuals

• Replace broken links or redirects

Set a recurring reminder (monthly or quarterly) to audit your FAQ page. For larger sites, consider using a content management tool to track update cycles.

Capture and Post New Questions from Chatbots and Forms

Use your site’s chatbot, live chat transcripts, or contact forms to mine real user questions.

If a question is asked more than once, it’s a signal that it belongs on your FAQ page.

Process Example:

1. Export user-submitted questions weekly.

2. Identify new or recurring themes.

3. Write a concise answer and add it to your FAQ under the correct category.

4. If the question is high-value, consider creating a dedicated FAQ subpage for it.

💡 Pro Tip: Include attribution or phrasing like “One of our clients recently asked...” to show responsiveness and build credibility.

Include a FAQ Submission Form

Invite users to contribute questions directly. This does two things:

• Increases engagement and dwell time

• Helps you uncover long-tail queries you might have missed

Features to include:

• Question input field

• Name/email (optional)

• Consent checkbox to receive updates

Follow up with:

• A thank-you message

• An option to be notified when the answer is posted

Bonus: This also creates an opportunity to grow your email list or retarget interested users later.

Monitor and Analyze Performance

You’ve built and optimized your FAQ page — now it’s time to track what’s working and what’s not. Monitoring performance helps you refine your content, uncover new keyword opportunities, and ensure your FAQ page keeps bringing in qualified traffic over time.

Use Analytics Tools to Monitor and Analyze the Performance of Your FAQ Page

Start with the basics using tools like:

• Google Search Console – to track impressions, clicks, CTR, indexing status, and rich snippet performance

• Google Analytics (GA4) – to monitor user behavior like time on page, scroll depth, bounce rate, and conversions

• Heatmap Tools (like Hotjar or Microsoft Clarity) – to visualize where users are clicking or getting stuck on your FAQ layout

Track metrics like:

• Total pageviews and average time on page

• Drop-off rate or exits

• Click-throughs to linked internal pages

• Growth in keyword impressions and ranking positions

Use this data to:

• Reorder or rewrite poorly performing questions

• Expand popular answers into full blog posts or service pages

• Add FAQs around new keyword opportunities

Use Ahrefs to Track AI Traffic and People Also Ask Search Results

Ahrefs can help you track how your FAQ content performs in Google’s evolving SERP features, including AI Overviews and People Also Ask boxes.

Here’s how to monitor those opportunities:

How to Use Ahrefs to Track People Also Ask Rankings?

1. In Ahrefs Site Explorer, enter your domain.

2. Go to Organic Keywords.

3. Filter by SERP Features → People Also Ask.

4. Look for questions your FAQ page ranks for.

5. Track position changes and identify answer gaps or expansion opportunities.

🧠 Tip: Rewrite or tighten your answers to better match snippet-friendly formats (1–2 sentences, natural phrasing, relevant keywords).

How to Use Ahrefs to Track Google’s AI Overview Search Results Rankings and Traffic?

While AI Overview-specific tracking is still emerging, Ahrefs offers early insight:

1. Use Keyword Explorer to identify question-based keywords with informational intent.

2. Check the SERP Overview to see if AI Overviews are triggered.

3. Look at competing pages that get featured — analyze their structure and tone.

4. Track performance of your FAQ URLs over time to see if they show up in new result formats.

Pro Strategy: Combine Ahrefs + Google Search Console data to triangulate which questions are being surfaced in AI or featured formats.

Will FAQ Schema Also Help ChatGPT Understand My FAQs?

While ChatGPT doesn’t crawl the web in real-time like Google, many AI tools and plugins that access the web rely on structured data to better understand content — including FAQ schema.

Using proper FAQPage markup helps:

• AI tools extract clean, reliable answers

• Your content be repurposed in third-party AI experiences (like Bing Copilot, Perplexity, etc.)

• Reinforce authority for your brand across platforms

Even if your FAQ page isn’t directly pulled into ChatGPT, schema future-proofs your content for AI-powered experiences across the web.

How Much Traffic Will I Gain With an FAQs Page?
