Problem identified
Comparison tables on six /compare pages are injected by JavaScript. Server HTML ships an empty table shell.
Why it matters
AI crawlers generally do not execute JavaScript, so our only comparison content is invisible to them. Our one winning comparison prompt cites the homepage instead.
Expected benefit
Makes existing content readable; prerequisite for the alternatives pages in r-11.
Recommended action
Steps in the order they should happen
Render comparison data server-side, or emit the same rows as a static table in the initial HTML.
- 1Move comparison data from the client fetch into the page payload
- 2Render the table in server HTML; keep sorting as client enhancement
- 3Re-test with a JavaScript-disabled fetch per page
