Cottage Worker

Cottage Worker is a business whose own site puts it this way: "This first version named the YACC1 (Yet Another Custom CPU) uses basic 74xx TTL logic and whenever possible basic gates, no 74181 ALU, no FPGA (that would be cheating 🙂 )." When AI engines look at it, they find little to work with. It scores 4.0 out of 10.

On its own pages the site does well on a clear heading structure. It is passable on basic crawler access. What holds it back is a clearly stated business identity, sitemaps and entity links AI can follow, structured data describing the business and credibility markers like credentials or reviews.

Off the page there is only faint evidence that the domain is only lightly established. Beyond that, almost no other sites link to it, AI engines do not yet recognise it as a distinct business, there is no press coverage to draw on, nobody is discussing it where AI engines look and it does not come up on Reddit. None of that can be fixed on the page: it has to be earned.

The site links to no social profiles, so there is nothing tying the brand to a wider presence.
