FAQ

How does it improve my SEO ?

It automatically adds JSON-LD structured data in your page based on the schema.org FAQPage format.

This data is then recognized and processed by search engines. Thus, if your content is relevant, you may get extra visibility in the SERPs.

In addition, the tiny footprint does not slow down your page and keeps your website optimzed for page speed SEO criteria.

Is it easy to use ?

Absolutlely! we designed Joli FAQ SEO to make editing as easy as it gets. We noticed almost all other FAQ plugins out there make creating FAQs complicated and time consuming because you always need to go back and forth in the WordPress admin. Our one page drag and drop editor makes creating and editing FAQ a breeze! No page reloads and instant results! Plus, we provide shortcuts to make editing even easier.

Can I customize it ?

Yes, we provide some basic themes in the free version that you can easily customize to match your theme. Plus, there is variety of fonts and color settings available in the options.

Joli FAQ SEO leverages CSS variables. You can then create your own theme with custom CSS.

Is it responsive ?

Yes! it works as well on desktop as on mobile 🙂

Does it use jQuery ?

No, there is no jQuery in the front-end scripts, only pure javascript (and not much!). Be sure the speed of your website will not be affected. jQuery is only used in the back-end, but this will not affect your site’s website because these scripts don’t load on the front-end 😉

Will it slow down my website ?

No, it has been designed to keep the smallest footprint possible and be optimised. No front-end jQuery, no images or extra ressources loaded. Icons are made from pure CSS and all the styles/scripts are minified.

Do you provide support ?

Yes, we also provide premium support on the Pro version.

Can I use it with WooCommerce ?

WooCommerce FAQ integration is available in the Pro version. You can however use the shortcode or the block to display a FAQ in any WooCommerce content page.

Why should I choose Joli FAQ SEO over another FAQ plugin ?

  • No jQuery dependency
  • Tiny footprint
  • One page -hassle free- FAQ editor
  • Improved SEO
  • Ease of use
  • Instant preview from the settings
  • Clean code
  • Developer friendly (actions & filters hooks)
