What an assistant reads first

Home pageWhat it says
TitleERIK HOUDINI OFFICIAL SITE
DescriptionErik Houdini — HOUDINI Magazine, HOUDINI TV, the HOUDINI Collective. It's about a miracle escape.
First headingNone in the HTML
OpeningComrades, I am facing a serious legal battle relating to my right to the freedom of speech about a well-known, over-1-million-YouTube-subscriber right wing influencer. This case could set a dangerous precedent about what speech is or isn't allowed.

4 changes so it reads plainly as what it is

  1. Say what you do, for whom and where

    Its pages read only partly as Agencies and studios. An assistant matches a site to a question by what its pages plainly say.

    Agent instructions

    On erikhoudini.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 Agencies and studios. 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 home page has no first heading in its HTML.

    Agent instructions

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

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

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

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

    Agent instructions

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

  5. 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.
