Week 4 Report: Technical SEO & AEO

Status: Technical Foundations & AEO

In week four, we focused on the “invisible” side of the project. Instead of mass-producing content, we tightened the technical side so that robots (both classic Google crawlers and new AI bots) have an easier job.

Key Actions:

1. Fixed robots.txt: A critical error was resolved. The file was missing, which could have blocked Google from properly parsing the sitemap. Now robots.txt explicitly points to sitemap-index.xml.
2. Implemented llms.txt: Following 2026 trends, we added an llms.txt file to the root directory. This acts as a “business card” for Large Language Models (LLMs), helping them understand the site structure without parsing HTML.
3. Image Optimization: Fixed 404 errors on Hub subpages (issues with relative paths and .png/.webp formats).
4. AEO (Answer Engine Optimization): We started optimizing content for answer engines (Perplexity, SearchGPT).

Results (GSC - Truth Pipeline):

The first real impressions (42) and even one click appeared. This signals that Google is starting to notice the domain, despite the lack of full indexation (typical sandbox behavior for a fresh domain).

What’s Next?

Next week we enter the authority-building phase. AI Agents (OpenClaw) will be tasked with creating “Deep Research” content aimed at earning natural backlinks.
