Meta description, 70–165 characters The grey line Google prints under your title. Without one, Google picks a sentence off your page at random.
Structured data (JSON-LD or microdata) Machine-readable facts - address, phone, hours. This is what puts a business in a map card instead of a plain link.
At least 300 words on the page A page with almost no words gives search engines nothing to match a search against.
llms.txt or AGENTS.md for AI search Plain text files that tell ChatGPT and Perplexity what your business does. Almost nobody in Austin has one yet.
