  • Prioritize no redirect chain on templates that create many URLs, because one template fix can improve a large share of the relevant audit section.
  • After changing the page, re-run the audit and compare the observed value for this check instead of relying on visual inspection alone.
  • Use the 84.6% pass rate as a benchmark: if your site fails here, passing the check moves it closer to the visible majority of crawlable, AI-readable pages.
