3 Signs Your Website Is NOT Voice-Ready

• Content is long-winded or jargon-filled

• You have zero FAQs or schema markup

• You don’t rank for question-based search terms

Ask Engine Optimization Tips That Work

• H2s that ask common questions

• Bullet points for easy scan-ability

2. Build Out Your FAQs People ask specific things.

Your site should answer them. Bonus: use accordion-style FAQ layouts for mobile friendliness.

3. Add FAQ Schema

4. Keep Answers Short & Friendly

• Aim for 40–50 words

• Write like you speak

• Be helpful, not salesy

Tools to Make This Easier

• Yoast SEO for on-page optimization

• Clearscope to align with search intent

• AnswerThePublic for common phrasing
