Two more versions shipped since the last entry. v9 was visual: album-inherited photographic backgrounds across 278 pages, with a per-page picker built for the inevitable exceptions. v10, live from 17 May, was an SEO and AdSense-readiness pass plus a round of content enrichment and quality cleanup.
Outside eyes
With a real site live, we commissioned three independent external audits of it — three different AI research tools, each given the same brief — and consolidated their findings against our own post-v10 audit. Where all three agree, you listen. The consensus items were unglamorous: broken anchor targets, schema gaps, meta descriptions long enough to get truncated in search results, and thin authorship signals.
That consolidation became the v11 master plan, opened 17 May, and its first phase — foundation hygiene — is exactly the boring list above, worked through systematically:
- Anchor IDs added to the equipment page so that 768 existing cross-links actually resolve to their targets.
- The one song page missing
MusicRecordingstructured data and the one album page missingMusicAlbumpatched — the long tail of any bulk generation process. WebSiteschema with aSearchActionon the homepage, making the site eligible for a sitelinks search box.- An expertise pass: a named author bio on the About page, a new editorial-standards page, and
Personschema wired to both. - Meta descriptions trimmed site-wide — 208 pages ran over 160 characters, and 11 stub legal pages ran under 60.
v11 went live on 20 May.
The plan becomes a document
The other product of the week is procedural: a formal project plan, published the same day, that carries live state (what version is active, what is live, what happens next) and a resume contract — the exact read-order a fresh working session follows to pick up where the last one stopped. Long-running passes now write state files so that work survives interruption. For a project executed across many short sessions, the plan file, not anyone’s memory, is the single source of truth. That principle will be tested soon enough.
