Implementation Timeline

62
Baseline (V1–V3) · March 24, 2026
Initial audit. Their online presence was already perfect — a 12/12. Thousands of glowing reviews, busy socials, listed everywhere that matters. We patted them on the back for that one. The website itself was another story: when an AI engine landed on it, very little of what makes Native Tongues great was written anywhere the engine could confidently find, understand, and repeat. Great restaurant, hard-to-read website — so we knew exactly where to start.
86
On-Page Overhaul · May 1, 2026
One focused overhaul of the website's content. We added the sections AI engines go looking for and rewrote the ones that confused them: the story of the restaurant and its founder, the questions customers actually ask, the awards and numbers that back up the reputation. Nothing a diner would call dramatic — everything a crawler needs to stop guessing and start understanding who Native Tongues is. This single push drove +24 points.

External Source Citations · June 2, 2026
The About page now names the actual mezcal producers they pour — real, checkable references an engine can follow and confirm. When AI can verify your claims somewhere else, it trusts the rest of your page more.

The FAQ Repair · June 10, 2026
The slip caught in May was repaired: all 17 customer questions are now packaged the way machines actually read them, not just the first two. Flagged five audits earlier — persistent tracking paid off.

The Elevator Pitch to AI · June 29, 2026
The one-line summary engines read first was rewritten from marketing fluff into hard facts: three locations, ten years in business, 4.5 stars across 4,855+ reviews, an award with a year on it. A sentence's worth of work, a measurable move.

The Story

Native Tongues started with excellent off-page fundamentals — strong reviews, active social media, directory presence. The audit showed that the website itself was the bottleneck: engines knew the restaurant existed, but couldn't confidently read and repeat what made it great. One focused on-page overhaul delivered 77% of the total improvement (+24 of +30 points). The remaining 20% came from incremental, specific optimizations — each one tracked, measured, and verified across 13 audit versions over 3 months. Every specific optimization measurably increases how AI search engines find, understand, and recommend a business.
