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
Publish a sitemap
+1 point, to 96, and #3,191, 3,818 places up
Publish /sitemap.xml listing every page that should rank, and name it in robots.txt.
Once, for the whole site
- 2
Settle on one address
+2 points, to 98, and into the top 1%
Redirect http, https, www, and the bare domain to one address, so the site is not indexed as several.
Once, for the whole site
- 3
Set a share image
+1 point, to 99
Set og:image so links to the page carry a picture.

Add an llms.txt
+1 point, to 100, and full marks
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
1 more, to tidy up after 100

Link straight to the final address
Under a point
Point links and the sitemap at the final address, not at one that redirects.

/hidden characters a reader cannot see/residential/dumpster-rentalhidden characters a reader cannot see
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.
