How AI reads this site
The first words an assistant reads on its home page.
What an assistant reads first
Home pageWhat it says
Title750+ Free Online Courses from the Best Colleges - Academic Earth
DescriptionView All Subjects

OpeningFind free online courses, lectures, and videos from the best colleges in the country. Take online classes from schools like Yale, MIT and Stanford: a world-class education at your fingertips.
3 changes so it reads plainly as what it is
- Rewrite the description
Its description is 17 characters, too few to choose a site by.
Agent instructions
On academicearth.org, write the home page a meta description of one or two sentences, 50 to 160 characters: what the business does, for whom, and where.
- Name Ventures DriveFort Mill in the first words
The site is in Ventures DriveFort Mill, and its title, description, first heading and opening never say so. Questions to assistants often name a place.
Agent instructions
On academicearth.org, name Ventures DriveFort Mill in the home page title or first sentence, and in the description, where it reads naturally.
- Say what kind of business it is in structured data
Its home page declares no business or organization type, so a machine has to guess what it is.
Agent instructions
On academicearth.org, add JSON-LD to the home page declaring the most particular schema.org type for the business, with its name, address, phone and sameAs links to its own profiles.
- Read it again
mttr reads the site again and says how it reads now.
An estimate made by mttr against 16 lines of work, from its home page before any script runs. It is not what any assistant says about the site. Rethink the direction with us.
Gemini cites 4 sites, not this site
mttr picked the question from academicearth.org’s home page and asked it as a person would.
