Does My Product Page Copy Still Matter If Agents Read Feeds And Schema? - Ask An SEO via @sejournal, @rollerblader
Product page copy remains essential despite AI agents reading feeds and schema, as LLMs (ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity) are only one traffic source and cannot access everything from incomplete or error-prone schema and product feeds. People still research via search engines, YouTube reviews, and direct visits, and poor product pages (like SCOTTeVEST's lack of return policy and trust signals) drive customers to Amazon, where a free-return policy won the sale. Brands should maintain value-adding, human-sounding copy on-site while sharing only necessary details to third-party platforms, as AI recommendations still lead to traditional shopping behaviors.

score 6 out of 10. 0-10: how dense the facts are, multiplied by how much you can do with them after reading. 8+ means the topic's evidence bar is met: benchmarks and availability for a new model, amount and investors for a funding round, revenue figures for a solo-money story. Below 5 an item does not enter the digest. A press release scores 3 or less, a reprint loses 2, anything older than 14 days loses 1, a headline that misleads loses 3.
