Should JSON files be blocked from crawling?
No ... not by default. If a JSON file only contains public site data and reinforces the page content, letting it stay visible can help search engines and AI systems understand the site.
FAQ
Question-first answers for AI-ready publishing.
This content type is separate from articles so the site can answer direct questions, expose structured answers, and support FAQPage schema without turning every page into a long essay.
What belongs in an AI website glossary?
A glossary should cover the terms your site depends on to explain its market, method, and product language clearly.
When should a directory be its own content type?
When listings need their own fields, categories, and route pattern, a directory should be treated as a real content type ... not a hacked blog substitute.
Can a flat-file PHP site scale into a full library?
Yes ... if the content model is planned early. Flat-file systems struggle when everything is treated like one generic post, not when content types are well defined.
Does every service need its own schema and page?
Not always, but each service should at least be represented as a distinct record with its own summary, relationship to topics, and clear route strategy.
How many public files should an AI-ready site expose?
Expose the files that make public information clearer ... and stop there. More files are not automatically better if they add no new clarity.
