"finance minister Brenda Bailey not seeking re-election 1 MIN READ 328 kilograms of cocaine, worth $5.8M, seized from Vancouver shipping container 1 MIN READ B.C." That is how East Kootenay News introduces itself. To AI engines like ChatGPT and Perplexity, though, it is barely visible: it scores 3.8 out of 10.
Our crawl found structured data on the page (CollectionPage, BreadcrumbList, WebSite). It is missing an llms.txt file, a sitemap and a heading structure that lays out what it offers.
