Video Structured Data (SEO)

JoomFlix Safe Video automatically generates Google-compliant VideoObject structured data for every embedded video.

This allows search engines to clearly understand your video content and makes your pages eligible for Video rich results, improved indexing and enhanced visibility in Google Search.

What data is generated automatically?

  • Video title & description (from module settings)
  • Upload date (ISO 8601 compliant)
  • Thumbnail URL (auto or manual when required)
  • Embed URL & content URL
  • Provider-aware output (YouTube, Vimeo, Local, Facebook, TikTok)

Structured Data Example

Below is an example of the JSON-LD structured data automatically generated by JoomFlix Safe Video:


{"@context"}: "https://schema.org",
"@type": "VideoObject",
"name": "JoomFlix SafeVideo (Secure Video Embed)",
"description": "A secure and lightweight video embedding module for Joomla.",
"uploadDate": "2025-11-28T00:00:00+00:00",
"thumbnailUrl": "https://example.com/video-thumbnail.jpg",
"embedUrl": "https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/VIDEO_ID",
"contentUrl": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIDEO_ID"

The structured data output is fully compliant with Google Video rich results guidelines and requires no manual coding.
