The two readers

Every website now has two readers: the person deciding in seconds, and the AI tool they asked first. Both need the same clear facts.

Why it matters

Sites written only for people get misread by machines. Sites written only for machines lose people. Serving both is the job now.

In practice

  • Lead every page with a plain answer.
  • Back it with structured data.
  • Keep facts identical across your site and profiles.

Entity profile

Your entity profile is the set of facts the web holds about your business: name, description, address, services, people and links, across your site and other platforms.
