Worked out from this read, with every step before it done. A score says pages are well formed. It does not say an assistant cites the site.

The steps

Each is one change across the pages named. When one is live, read the site again and mttr marks it done.

  1. 1

    Fix description lengths

    +1 point, to 97, and #2,058, 2,446 places up, and into the top 1%

    Write a meta description of 70 to 165 characters that summarizes the page.

    50 pages, 31 of them under /reviews/

  2. 2

    Make near-copy pages distinct

    +1 point, to 98

    Rewrite or merge pages that share most of their text. A page that only swaps a city or product name is what search engines treat as doorway or scaled content.

    Once, for the whole site

  3. 3

    Show sources on guides

    Under a point

    Link the sources for the guide's facts where a reader can see them. Official and primary sources carry the most weight.

    • /guides/tuckpointing-vs-repointing
  4. 4

    Answer the first question right under it

    Under a point

    Answer the first question in the paragraph right under it, in 25 to 90 words. Whether the paragraph truly answers is for the judge or a person to say.

    3 pages under /guides/

    • /guides/glossary
    • /guides/lintels
    • /guides/tuckpointing-vs-repointing
  5. 5

    Link to orphaned pages

    Under a point

    Link to each of these from a related page. A page only the sitemap knows about is treated as unimportant.

    Once, for the whole site

  6. 6

    Add an llms.txt

    Under a point

    Add /llms.txt: a short plain text map of the site for assistants. Its effect is unproven, so treat it as cheap insurance.

    Once, for the whole site

  7. 7

    Add real images to content

    Under a point

    Add a photo, drawing, or chart as an img with alt text. A CSS background image has no alt text and is not read as part of the page.

    3 pages under /guides/

  8. 8

    Put figures in tables

    Under a point

    Where the guide compares options or gives figures, put them in a table.

    1 page

    • /guides/glossary
  9. 9

    Phrase headings as questions

    +1 point, to 99

    Phrase at least one heading as the question a person would ask.

  11. 11

    Add lists or tables

    Under a point

    Add a table, a list, or a definition list. Assistants quote these more readily than prose.

    1 page

    • /services/lintel-works
  12. 12

    Fix title lengths

    Under a point

    Write a title of 15 to 65 characters that leads with what the page covers.

    Point links and the sitemap at the final address, not at one that redirects.

A sign is not proof. Hidden characters can carry a watermark or instructions meant for an AI, and they come off with a clean copy of the text.
