Why it matters for AI citation
AI crawlers expand context via internal links the same way they crawl. Isolated pages get under-indexed.
How to fix it
Add 5–10 internal links per page to related concepts, glossary terms, or supporting pages.
About the Structure class
How parseable your page is to an AI engine. Schema, headings, lists, tables, alt-text, OG meta. The substrate that makes everything else legible.
