🔧 Remediation Checklist for huffpost.com

Prioritized technical fixes to reclaim AI citation share. Total estimated effort: 1–3 engineering sprints.

1

Reduce 94x token bloat to under 3x

Your page sends 94 tokens of HTML for every token of useful content. AI crawlers waste context window on navigation, scripts, and boilerplate. Serve a clean semantic layer.

Impact: critical
```

<link rel="alternate" type="application/ld+json" href="/structured-data.json">

```

2

Add comprehensive JSON-LD structured data

Only 1 schema types detected. Add Organization, Product/Service, FAQ, and Breadcrumb schemas to give AI extractors ground truth.

Impact: high

<script type="application/ld+json">
{
  "@context": "https://schema.org",
  "@type": "Organization",
  "name": "huffpost.com",
  "url": "https://huffpost.com",
  "description": "..."
}
</script>

3

Unblock GPTBot, ClaudeBot in robots.txt

These AI crawlers are currently blocked from reading your content. Domains that allow these bots tend to see higher AI extractability scores.

Impact: critical
```
# Add to robots.txt:
User-agent: GPTBot
Allow: /

User-agent: ClaudeBot
Allow: /
```
4

Improve semantic HTML structure

Low information density. Use proper headings (H1-H3), ordered lists, definition lists, and table markup so AI can parse your content hierarchically.

Impact: medium
