AISEO Area: AI and RAG. This tag helps to place the term within the glossary and understand if it belongs to crawling, semantics, performance, security, AI, accessibility or certification.
It matters because AI systems work with fragments. If those fragments are badly split or lack context, answers can become incomplete or wrong.
- Split content into clear, self-contained blocks.
- Add enough context for each fragment to make sense on its own.
- Connect entities, sources and trust signals where appropriate.
- Remove decorative text that does not add useful information.
Common errors
Creating text blocks that depend too heavily on previous context.
Mixing different concepts in the same section without hierarchy.
Not providing enough signals for AI to identify source, entity or intent.
Treating Semantic chunk as a minor detail instead of a signal within the system.
