The code behind this page
This is exactly what this page sends to Google, Bing, ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Gemini. We publish it in the open for two reasons: so you can see nothing here is hidden or made up, and so any business or developer can copy it. Being a good local AI steward means the machine version says exactly what the human version says.
1. HTTP response headers
Sent before the page. They tell crawlers the canonical address and that a plain markdown copy exists.
HTTP/2 200 content-type: text/html; charset=utf-8 link: <https://localairegistry.com/biz/ca/rancho-mirage/shaaf-eye-center-rancho-mirage-ca>; rel="canonical", <https://localairegistry.com/biz/ca/rancho-mirage/shaaf-eye-center-rancho-mirage-ca.md>; rel="alternate"; type="text/markdown", <https://localairegistry.com/llms.txt>; rel="describedby"
2. Head tags
Title, description, canonical, robots and Open Graph tags. This is what shows in search results and link previews.
<meta charset="utf-8"> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1"> <title>Shaaf Eye Center, Rancho Mirage CA: Reviews</title> <meta name="description" content="Eye care center in Rancho Mirage, CA. 4.8 on Google from 410 reviews."> <meta name="robots" content="index, follow"> <link rel="canonical" href="https://localairegistry.com/biz/ca/rancho-mirage/shaaf-eye-center-rancho-mirage-ca"> <link rel="alternate" type="text/markdown" href="https://localairegistry.com/biz/ca/rancho-mirage/shaaf-eye-center-rancho-mirage-ca.md"> <meta property="og:title" content="Shaaf Eye Center, Rancho Mirage CA: Reviews"> <meta property="og:description" content="Eye care center in Rancho Mirage, CA. 4.8 on Google from 410 reviews."> <meta property="og:url" content="https://localairegistry.com/biz/ca/rancho-mirage/shaaf-eye-center-rancho-mirage-ca"> <meta property="og:site_name" content="Local AI Registry"> <meta property="og:type" content="website"> <meta name="twitter:card" content="summary_large_image"> <meta name="geo.position" content="33.7572299;-116.4090826"> <meta name="ICBM" content="33.7572299, -116.4090826"> <meta name="geo.region" content="US-CA"> <meta name="geo.placename" content="Rancho Mirage">
3. Structured data (JSON-LD)
One connected graph. Every person and service has its own @id and links to the business, and a licensed person links to the license and the board that issued it.
