    A STARTING-POINT EXAMPLE

    Hypothetical standard operating procedure

    Adapt this example to your site, access, tools, and change process. It is our suggested procedure, informed by the sources below.

    1. Identify pages driving most revenue or leads, such as service, comparison, and FAQ pages.
    2. Review each page to ensure a clear, concise answer or definition appears near the top.
    3. Break content into logical sections with H2/H3 headings aligned to real user queries.
    4. Use bullet points or numbered lists to present key facts or steps clearly.
    5. Replace vague marketing claims with specific, useful information supported by credible sources.

    Watch for

    Avoid vague or overly generic content that fails to directly address specific user queries, as it reduces eligibility for AI-generated answers.

    Definition of done

    Pages explicitly answer targeted user questions with clear headings and bullet lists enhancing AI interpretability.
