How AI reads this site
The first words an assistant reads on its home page.
What an assistant reads first
Home pageWhat it says
TitleJournal of Democracy
DescriptionThe <em>Journal of Democracy</em> has been a leading voice in the conversation about government by consent and its place in the world.
First headingNone in the HTML
OpeningOpposition parties cannot defeat backsliding incumbents alone, but big united fronts often fail, too. The important choice lies between unity coalitions and quiet ones—and knowing which to choose can make all the difference.
3 changes so it reads plainly as what it is
- Make the first heading say what the title says
The home page has no first heading in its HTML.
Agent instructions
On journalofdemocracy.org, give the home page one first heading (h1) that says, in a reader's words, what its title says the site is.
- Name Baltimore in the first words
The site is in Baltimore, and its title, description, first heading and opening never say so. Questions to assistants often name a place.
Agent instructions
On journalofdemocracy.org, name Baltimore 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 journalofdemocracy.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.
