Your opening paragraph

We make Smooth Recorder, so weigh this page accordingly. We've tried to be fair.

What to change

  • Start with 1–2 sentences (about 40–80 words) that directly answer the page’s main question, e.g. “X is … It costs … It works by …”. Put context after it.
  • 20 of 23 sections have under 50 words. Merge or expand them so each can stand alone as a quote.

Why it matters

AI quotes the top of the page

Growth Memo’s study of 18,000 verified ChatGPT citations found 44.2% came from the first 30% of a page.

Sections get lifted, not pages

SE Ranking found sections of about 120–180 words were the most cited. Each section should make sense when quoted on its own.

Crawlers read raw HTML

We analyse the HTML as served, because GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot don’t run JavaScript.

What it checks

01

Opening paragraph

The first real paragraph after the H1: its length, position, and whether it states an answer (“X is…”) instead of filler or a question.

02

Position

How far into the main content the answer starts.

03

Section lengths

Words per H2/H3 section: thin (<50), 120–180, and walls of text (>400).

04

Headings

How many headings are phrased as questions. Question-style headings did slightly worse in SE Ranking’s data.

05

Lists and tables

Structured formats that are easy to extract.

06

Numbers

Concrete figures per 100 words: prices, limits, dates, results.
