Priorities

Top Leaks To Fix First

Ranked by revenue impact. Each one is something citizens — or an AI answer engine — need to see and currently can't. Fixing the top few moves your score the most.

01

Direct conversion CTA

Add a prominent call-to-action for proposing maps to drive engagement.

02

Structured data

Add structured data (LocalBusiness / Organization schema: address, hours, phone, ratings) so search engines show you with rich results.

03

Pricing or buying signal

Show pricing or a "from…" anchor so citizens can self-qualify before they reach out.

04

Contact or booking path

Simplify the process for citizens to submit their proposals.

05

AI-readable llms.txt

Publish /llms.txt with a concise machine-readable product summary, audience, pricing, and docs links.

06

Meta description

Revise the meta description to better reflect the mission of visualizing community desires.

07

Open Graph metadata

Add Open Graph tags so shared links render with a clear title and value proposition.

08

Sitemap present

Publish /sitemap.xml and submit it to search engines.

Conversion evidence

How The Page Sells

1 of 8 of the buying-decision signals we could verify are on your site today. Only 1 of 8 buying-decision elements were detected. Visitors likely leave without enough reason to act, so adding these is the highest-leverage revenue work.

Below is the breakdown: what's already working (with the exact text quoted from your page as proof), and the highest-impact additions to win more community proposals — in priority order.

Scope: an automated scan of the 5 pages we could read across your site. Every “found” item quotes the exact text on your page so you can verify it. It doesn't judge copy quality or design.

Selling well (detected, with proof)

  • Clear value proposition (headline) — found: “C I T Y E D I T BETA” (on /m/sf-bike-lanes?vt=Improve+bike+lane)

Highest-impact additions to sell more

  • Action-oriented primary CTA — Place one clear action button above the fold (e.g. Start free, Book a demo).
  • Social proof (testimonial / customers / rating) — Add a testimonial, customer logo, star rating, or an 'N customers' proof point near the top.
  • Specific, quantified result — Add a concrete number (result %, time saved, customers served). Specifics convert better than adjectives.
  • Risk reversal (trial / guarantee / no card) — Lower perceived risk: free trial, money-back guarantee, no credit card, or cancel-anytime.
  • Visible pricing / 'starting at' anchor — Show pricing or a 'starting at' anchor so buyers can self-qualify without emailing.
  • Easy lead-capture path — Give an easy capture path: short form, booking link, or contact route from the first screen.
  • Objection handling (FAQ) — Answer the top 3-5 buyer objections in an FAQ to remove hesitation before the CTA.

Deliverable

Your complete fix pack is ready

We've already done the full work-up for CityEdit – Open — every fix written out, with copy and code ready to paste. Here's what's inside:

Complete fix plan (every issue, step by step)

1. Direct conversion CTA

Add a prominent call-to-action for proposing maps to drive engagement.

  1. Place one primary button above the fold with action text (e.g. the suggested CTA below).
  2. Repeat the same CTA after the proof section and in the footer.
  3. Make the button visually dominant — one accent colour used only for the primary action.

2. Structured data

Add structured data (LocalBusiness / Organization schema: address, hours, phone, ratings) so search engines show you with rich results.

  1. Add JSON-LD using the schema snippet below, edited with your real details.
  2. Validate it in Google's Rich Results Test before publishing.
  3. Keep it in sync with the on-page facts (name, address, phone, offers).

3. Pricing or buying signal

Show pricing or a "from…" anchor so citizens can self-qualify before they reach out.

  1. Show pricing, packages, or a 'from …' anchor so buyers can self-qualify.
  2. If pricing is bespoke, give a starting price or a typical range.
  3. Pair each price with what's included so it reads as value, not cost.

4. Contact or booking path

Simplify the process for citizens to submit their proposals.

  1. Add a visible booking link, short form, or tap-to-call number on the first screen.
  2. Keep the form to 3 fields max; every extra field drops completion.
  3. Confirm submissions with a clear success state, not a silent reload.

5. AI-readable llms.txt

Publish /llms.txt with a concise machine-readable product summary, audience, pricing, and docs links.

  1. Publish /llms.txt with a plain-text product summary, audience, pricing and key links.
  2. Keep it concise — answer engines reward clear, factual structure.
  3. Update it when your offer or pricing changes.

6. Meta description

Revise the meta description to better reflect the mission of visualizing community desires.

  1. Write a 140–155 character description that states the offer and the next step.
  2. Lead with the benefit, end with a soft call to action.
  3. Include the term a buyer would search so the snippet matches their query.

7. Open Graph metadata

Add Open Graph tags so shared links render with a clear title and value proposition.

  1. Add og:title, og:description, og:image and og:url to <head>.
  2. Use a 1200×630 share image with the value proposition baked in.
  3. Test the preview with the Facebook/LinkedIn debuggers.

8. Sitemap present

Publish /sitemap.xml and submit it to search engines.

  1. Publish /sitemap.xml listing every indexable URL with <lastmod>.
  2. Reference it from robots.txt and submit it in Google Search Console.
  3. Regenerate it automatically whenever pages change.

Action order

48-Hour Fix Plan

  • Add a prominent call-to-action for proposing maps to drive engagement.
  • Add structured data (LocalBusiness / Organization schema: address, hours, phone, ratings) so search engines show you with rich results.
  • Show pricing or a "from…" anchor so citizens can self-qualify before they reach out.
  • Simplify the process for citizens to submit their proposals.
  • Publish /llms.txt with a concise machine-readable product summary, audience, pricing, and docs links.

Why it matters

The fastest citizens do not read every page. They scan the first screen, trust signals, pricing cues and how easy it is to propose a map. Missing signals make the offer harder to understand and easier to ignore.
