Pick one silo, fix its schema and internal linking first, and measure before touching anything else. A tight win on one silo beats a scattered pass across the whole site.
Insights & analysis
Teams pulling ahead in AI search share three habits: they treat schema as a contract, they treat internal links as a graph problem, and they treat every applied fix as reversible. Everything else — tools, dashboards, agencies — is downstream of those three.
Paired module: Dynamic XML & News Sitemaps
Auto-generated index sitemaps split by post type, language and freshness, with per-URL priority, hreflang alternates and a News sitemap for time-sensitive content. A single flat sitemap at scale slows discovery and hides freshness signals from crawlers and LLM indexers.
- SEO Features → Sitemap → Enable index sitemaps
- Split by CPT, language and updated-in-last-48h
- Ping IndexNow + Bing + Google on publish
- Expose the News sitemap only for CPTs you mark as news
