Anything we couldn’t read is its own segment — a page that blocks our reader is our limitation, not a mark against you, and it never lowers your score.

Priorities

Fix these first

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

01

No price anywhere on the page

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

02

No easy way to get in touch

Make it easy to start a free trial from the homepage — a visible form, booking link, or tap-to-call number.

03

AI assistants have nothing to read

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

04

The page is slow to answer

Speed up the homepage — most users arrive on a phone, and a slow first load loses them before the page shows.

What we read on your page

What a customer finds — and doesn’t

5 of the 8 things we could check are already on your page. Your page has 5 of the 8 things a customer looks for. Adding the rest is the quickest way to get more out of the visitors you already have.

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 trial signups — 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.

Already on your page

  • A headline that says what you do — found: “Find good first issues on GitHub”
  • An obvious button that starts the thing — found: “Apply free for OSS”
  • Reviews or proof from real customers — found: “★” (on /projects/all/1)
  • A concrete number, not an adjective — found: “10+”
  • Something that removes the risk of trying you — found: “Free forever” (on /projects)

What to add, in order of impact

  • A price, or at least a from-figure — Show pricing or a 'starting at' anchor so buyers can self-qualify without emailing.
  • An easy way to get in touch — Give an easy capture path: short form, booking link, or contact route from the first screen.
  • Answers to the questions people ask before buying — Answer the top 3-5 buyer objections in an FAQ to remove hesitation before the CTA.

Deliverable

The full write-up is ready

We've already done the full work-up for Make open-source contributions fun and meaningful — 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. No price anywhere on the page

Show pricing or a "from…" anchor so users 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.

2. No easy way to get in touch

Make it easy to start a free trial from the homepage — a visible form, booking link, or tap-to-call number.

  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.

3. AI assistants have nothing to read

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.

4. The page is slow to answer

Speed up the homepage — most users arrive on a phone, and a slow first load loses them before the page shows.

  1. Compress and lazy-load images; serve modern formats (WebP/AVIF).
  2. Put the site behind a CDN and enable caching of static assets.
  3. Defer non-critical JavaScript so the first screen paints fast.

Action order

48-Hour Fix Plan

  • Show pricing or a "from…" anchor so users can self-qualify before they reach out.
  • Make it easy to start a free trial from the homepage — a visible form, booking link, or tap-to-call number.
  • Publish /llms.txt with a concise machine-readable product summary, audience, pricing, and docs links.
  • Speed up the homepage — most users arrive on a phone, and a slow first load loses them before the page shows.

Why it matters

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