## How to Improve ‍AI Discoverability

1. Add llms.txt file to help AI crawlers ﻿understand site structure, content categories, and regional coverage — ‌currently missing entirely
2. Implement FAQ Schema (FAQPage JSON-LD) on ‌article pages to surface Q&A directly in AI-generated answers ‍and search snippets
3. Add LocalBusiness or TouristInformationCenter structured data ​for each regional hub page (Tokyo, Kansai, Hokkaido, Tohoku) ﻿to improve entity recognition
4. Create a dedicated /api/ or ‌/data/ endpoint with structured JSON for top attractions, seasonal ‍events, and coupon data that AI agents can programmatically ﻿consume
5. Add HowTo and Event schema markup to seasonal ﻿articles (cherry blossom guides, festival calendars) so AI assistants ‌can extract step-by-step travel planning advice and event dates ‍directly
