What an assistant reads first

Home pageWhat it says
TitleAmerica's Best Eyecare + Eyewear
DescriptionBuy 2 pairs of prescription eyeglasses and get a FREE eye exam! Find an America's Best location near you.
First heading2 PAIRS + EYE EXAM FOR $95
OpeningFind the right time at one of our 1000+ locations near you.

5 changes so it reads plainly as what it is

  1. Say what you do, for whom and where

    Its pages read as two kinds of work at once as Clinics and dentists. An assistant matches a site to a question by what its pages plainly say.

    Agent instructions

    On americasbest.com, rewrite the home page title and its first sentence to say plainly what the business does, for whom and where, so the site reads as Clinics and dentists. Keep the title under 60 characters and lead with the service, not the name.

  2. Make the first heading say what the title says

    The title and the first heading share no word that says what the site does: “America's Best Eyecare + Eyewear” and “2 PAIRS + EYE EXAM FOR $95”.

    Agent instructions

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

  3. Name Upland in the first words

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

    Agent instructions

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

  4. 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 americasbest.com, add JSON-LD to the home page declaring the most particular schema.org type for the business (one that fits Clinics and dentists), with its name, address, phone and sameAs links to its own profiles.

  5. Give each kind of work a page of its own

    It reads close to Agencies and studios as well as Clinics and dentists. Mixed on one page, neither reads plainly.

    Agent instructions

    On americasbest.com, find where the site mixes Clinics and dentists with Agencies and studios, and give each its own page, linked from the home page, so each page is about one thing.

  6. 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.
