Our suggested order: biggest obstacles first, quickest first among equals. The effect of each fix is not measured. 3 take minutes.
Step 1 · Organic
Everything here was observed on the site. Fixing it removes a known obstacle; no one can promise a specific ranking in return.
Observed · AdnaveBot's reading of 12 pages on 2026-11-12 · each finding is what we saw on those pages; “what to do”, the score and the order are our judgment
The http:// version of the site still answers on its own, so some visitors and links stay on an insecure copy.
What to do: Redirect every http:// address to its https:// equivalent with a permanent (301) redirect.
For an Apache server, add to the top of the .htaccess file. Many hosts also offer this as a switch called “Force HTTPS”.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]There is no structured data, so an assistant has to guess what the business is from loose text.
What to do: Add schema.org markup for the organisation, plus the type that fits the page: Product, Service, Article, FAQPage or SoftwareApplication.
Paste inside the <head> of the page. Fill in the name and logo address.
<script type="application/ld+json">
{
"@context": "https://schema.org",
"@type": "Organization",
"name": "wiley.com",
"url": "https://www.wiley.com",
"logo": "https://www.wiley.com/your-logo.png"
}
</script>robots.txt tells these assistants to stay out, so they cannot read or cite your pages. That is a legitimate choice, but it removes you from their answers.
What to do: If you want to appear in AI answers, remove the Disallow rules for these crawlers in robots.txt.
Only if you want Gemini to be able to ground its answers in your pages. Google-Extended controls both that and Gemini training, so allowing it allows both. It does not affect Google Search either way.
User-agent: Google-Extended Allow: /
A page should have one H1. Several of them blur what the page is about.
What to do: Keep one H1 and turn the others into H2 subheadings.
How to fix this: How to write page titles and meta descriptionsWithout a width and height, the page shifts as each image arrives. That is the layout shift Core Web Vitals penalise.
What to do: Add width and height attributes to every image tag.
How to fix this: Image SEO: alt text, file size and layout shiftStructured data lets Google show extras such as ratings, prices, opening hours and FAQs in your result.
What to do: Add schema.org markup that fits the business (Organization, LocalBusiness, Product, FAQ).
Paste inside the <head> of the page. Fill in the name and logo address.
<script type="application/ld+json">
{
"@context": "https://schema.org",
"@type": "Organization",
"name": "wiley.com",
"url": "https://www.wiley.com",
"logo": "https://www.wiley.com/your-logo.png"
}
</script>These headers protect visitors from downgrade and content-sniffing attacks. Browsers and security scanners look for them.
What to do: Have the web server send Strict-Transport-Security and X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff on every response.
For an Apache server, add to the .htaccess file. On other servers, ask your host to send these two headers.
Header always set Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=31536000" Header always set X-Content-Type-Options "nosniff"
That is heavy for the page code alone, before any images load.
What to do: Remove unused code and inline data, and load non-essential parts later.
How to fix this: Core Web Vitals: how to make a slow website fastSearch engines and screen readers use a link's words to understand the page it leads to. “Learn more” tells them nothing.
What to do: Reword each link to name its destination, for example “See our pricing” instead of “Learn more”.
Assistants quote pages that state a question and answer it plainly. This page has no question-style headings.
What to do: Add a short section of real customer questions as headings, each answered in two or three sentences.
How to fix this: AI search readiness: how to be found by AI assistantsAn optional plain-text summary of the site for AI assistants. It is cheap to add, but there is no evidence yet that it changes how often a site is cited.
What to do: Optionally add /llms.txt with a short description of the site and links to its most important pages.
Optional. Save as llms.txt at the top level of the site. Edit the first lines to describe what you do.

Step 2 · Ads
Ads only pay off when the site can measure what they bring in. We look for tracking tags in the page code; tags that load later, through a consent banner or tag manager, will not show up here.
Without analytics you cannot see where visitors come from or what they do.
What to do: Set up Google Analytics 4 and add its tag to every page.
How to fix this: What to set up before you spend on adsGoogle Ads cannot learn which clicks turn into customers without it.
What to do: Create a conversion action in Google Ads and add the tag, or import conversions from Analytics.
