01. Make the page AI reads say plainly what Georgia State University does for founders
Whoever edits the website · 45 min
- Open https://eni.gsu.edu/launchgsu. AI cites it more than any other page on your site.
- Near the top, say in plain sentences who it is for, what a founder or a company gets from you, and how to reach the right person.
- Check the engines' reading against reality. In our reading of the answers, they say: “Has entrepreneurship coursework but no confirmed defined startup funding amount.” If that is right, say it yourself. If it is wrong, correct it in one sentence on this page.
- Keep it as text on the page, not inside an image, a PDF or a slide deck, so the engines can read it.
