3 changes so it reads plainly as what it is
- Say what you do, for whom and where
Its pages read only partly as Online shops. An assistant matches a site to a question by what its pages plainly say.
Agent instructions
On cornellbigred.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 Online shops. Keep the title under 60 characters and lead with the service, not the name.
- Name Ithaca in the first words
The site is in Ithaca, and its title, description, first heading and opening never say so. Questions to assistants often name a place.
Agent instructions
On cornellbigred.com, name Ithaca 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 cornellbigred.com, add JSON-LD to the home page declaring the most particular schema.org type for the business (one that fits Online shops), 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.
