FAQ Pages
Frequently asked questions are ideal content to include - and address - in your help center.
A dedicated FAQ section is a user and SEO-friendly format as your users will most likely look for answers to one or several of these questions when they land on your help center.
To increase the findability of the content, stay as close as possible to your users' own wording of the question- even if not that accurate - and put each question on a separate page.

Anatomy of the Page
A page per question
Having a child page for each question will ensure that it shows up on top of the search results and allows your users to focus on only the relevant content.
Audience’s phrasing
Framing and phrasing the page title like a question that your audience would ask increases chances that they find and engage with the content.
Child Pages Macro
By inserting a child pages macro (formerly known as “Children display macro”) on the parent page, your users can get to see all the questions at a glance and quickly dive into the relevant one.
