Your site doesn't have an llms.txt file. This is the emerging standard for helping AI agents understand your site structure.
How to implement
Create an /llms.txt file following the llmstxt.org specification. Include a site description and links to your key pages.
Your page has a low ratio of actual content to total HTML. Much of the page weight is markup, scripts, or styles rather than content.
How to implement
Move CSS to external stylesheets, remove inline styles, minimize JavaScript, and ensure the HTML focuses on content structure.
Your site doesn't support Markdown for Agents. This Cloudflare standard lets AI agents request content in markdown format, reducing token usage by ~80%.
How to implement
Implement one or more: (1) Respond to Accept: text/markdown with markdown content. (2) Serve .md URLs (e.g., /page.md). (3) Add <link rel="alternate" type="text/markdown"> tags. (4) Add Link HTTP headers for markdown discovery.
No Content-Signal directives found. These tell AI agents how they may use your content (search indexing, AI input, training data). The recommended location is robots.txt.
How to implement
Add Content-Signal to your robots.txt: User-agent: *\nContent-Signal: search=yes, ai-input=yes, ai-train=no. You can also add it as an HTTP header on markdown responses.
No Schema.org structured data found. JSON-LD helps AI agents extract factual, structured information from your pages.
How to implement
Add a <script type="application/ld+json"> block with Schema.org markup. Use appropriate types: Article for blog posts, Product for products, Organization for your company page.
Your page relies heavily on <div> elements. Semantic elements like <section>, <nav>, <header>, <footer>, and <aside> provide meaningful structure for AI agents.
How to implement
Replace generic <div> containers with appropriate semantic elements. Use <section> for thematic groups, <nav> for navigation, <header>/<footer> for page/section headers and footers.
Some images lack descriptive alt text. Good alt text helps AI agents understand image content and context.
How to implement
Add descriptive alt attributes to all images. Describe what the image shows, not just 'image' or 'photo'. For decorative images, use alt="" (empty).
The main content appears late in the HTML document. AI agents may give more weight to content that appears early.
How to implement
Restructure your HTML so that <main> or <article> content appears before sidebars and supplementary content.
No canonical URL found. This helps AI agents identify the preferred version of a page and avoid duplicate content.
How to implement
Add a <link rel="canonical" href="..."> tag pointing to the canonical URL of the page.
Your heading structure has issues (skipped levels or multiple h1 tags). A clean hierarchy helps AI agents understand content organization.
How to implement
Ensure you have exactly one <h1> per page, and headings follow sequential order: h1 > h2 > h3. Don't skip levels (e.g., h1 directly to h3).
