Key Gaps

Biggest opportunities

Structured data / Schema.org coverage
Homepage (1 sampled): present — website Product pages (1 sampled): missing About / company page (1 sampled): missing FAQ / help page (1 sampled): missing Service pages (1 sampled): missing
→ Quick wins (highest impact ÷ effort): • Add Organization or Aboutpage or Corporation on /site/* (About / company page) — impact +6, ease 1/5. • Add Faqpage or Qapage on /c/* (FAQ / help page) — impact +8, ease 2/5. • Add Service or Professionalservice on /site/* (Service pages) — impact +8, ease 2/5. Highest raw impact: • Add Product on /site/* (Product pages) — impact +10, ease 4/5. • Add Faqpage or Qapage on /c/* (FAQ / help page) — impact +8, ease 2/5. • Add Service or Professionalservice on /site/* (Service pages) — impact +8, ease 2/5.
Structured data — Product pages
Sampled 1 product pages; expected Product, found: no JSON-LD.
→ Add Product schema with `name`, `description`, `image`, `brand`, and an `offers` → Offer with `price`, `priceCurrency`, and `availability`. Add `aggregateRating` if you collect reviews. Target path pattern: /site/*.
Structured data — FAQ / help page
Sampled 1 faq / help page; expected Faqpage OR Qapage, found: webpage.
→ Wrap existing Q&A pairs on the FAQ page with FAQPage JSON-LD (`mainEntity` → `Question` + `acceptedAnswer`). AI answer engines cite FAQPage content directly. Target path pattern: /c/*.
Structured data — Service pages
Sampled 1 service pages; expected Service OR Professionalservice, found: videoobject.
→ Add Service schema on service pages with `serviceType`, `provider` (Organization), `areaServed`, and a `hasOfferCatalog` for tiered offerings. Target path pattern: /site/*.
Machine-readable capability discovery
Probed 18 endpoints — none returned a valid .well-known response.
→ If you expose APIs or developer capabilities, publish /.well-known/openid-configuration, /.well-known/mcp, or /.well-known/api-catalog as appropriate.
