How AI reads this site

The first words an assistant reads on its home page.

What an assistant reads first

Home pageWhat it says
TitleStock Market News & Investing Research | The Motley Fool
DescriptionThe Motley Fool has been providing investing insights and personal finance to millions of people for over 25 years. Learn how we make the world Smarter, Happier & Richer.
First headingMaking the World Smarter, Happier & Richer!
OpeningThese are the stocks our analysts believe are the best positioned to beat the market, and they selected them using the same method to beat the S&P 500 by 4x over the last 20+ years.*

3 changes so it reads plainly as what it is

  1. Make the first heading say what the title says

    The title and the first heading share no word that says what the site does: “Stock Market News & Investing Research | The Motley Fool” and “Making the World Smarter, Happier & Richer!”.

    Agent instructions

    On fool.com, give the home page one first heading (h1) that says, in a reader's words, what its title says the site is.

  2. Rewrite the description

    Its description is 170 characters and is cut off in results.

    Agent instructions

    On fool.com, write the home page a meta description of one or two sentences, 50 to 160 characters: what the business does, for whom, and where.

  3. Name Alexandria in the first words

    The site is in Alexandria, and its title, description, first heading and opening never say so. Questions to assistants often name a place.

    Agent instructions

    On fool.com, name Alexandria in the home page title or first sentence, and in the description, where it reads naturally.

  4. 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.
