--- title: "What pages does my small-business website need?" description: "Turn real customer questions into a useful website content plan. Ask your AI which pages to improve, combine or create, with facts and checks for each decision." canonical: "https://fidelic.ai/recipes/plan-small-business-website-content" lastUpdated: "2026-10-28" --- # What pages does my small-business website need? Plan pages around decisions real customers need to make about your actual services. Your AI can compare customer questions with existing content, identify gaps and propose a manageable order of work. A new page needs a distinct purpose; another town name alone does not establish one. [All website situations and prompts](https://fidelic.ai/recipes). ## Ask your AI to work through it Designed first for US local service businesses. Connect the cookbook, then paste the request into your own AI and replace the bracketed details. Keep your business facts and private evidence in that conversation. Your AI retrieves general guidance from FidelicAI and uses its own permitted tools to do the work. A prompt alone does not connect the cookbook. > Use the FidelicAI cookbook to plan useful content for [URL], a [business type] serving [places]. Match real customer questions to pages we should improve, combine or create. Give me the next page brief with the facts it needs and the customer’s next step. [Set up the cookbook connection](https://fidelic.ai/connect). ## Have these details ready - Your website and the services you currently provide. - Questions customers ask before choosing, booking or enquiring. - Real service locations, available capacity and any existing search observations. ## What a useful result contains - A question-to-page map identifying current coverage and genuine gaps. - An ordered set of page decisions, including what to defer and why. - An actionable brief for each chosen page, with required facts, next action and an acceptance check. ## A town name does not establish a distinct page purpose A repair company serves several nearby towns but offers the same service and booking route in each. Ask whether one strong service page and a clear service-area explanation answer the need. A separate page earns its place through useful, accurate differences that matter to the customer. Illustrative situation; not a customer result. ## Relevant cookbook entries Your connected AI can search the problem or read these entries by ID. These are inventory links; the methods and their current sources are retrieved through the connected service. Your AI should report unavailable guidance explicitly. Request updated: Oct 28, 2026.

Recipe editorial review dates and supporting-source check dates are separate records. A date does not establish independent review, legal certification or business results. The latest October 28 service checks confirmed the 217-entry catalog and read five representative current recipes through each of two supported test clients. An earlier October 28 sweep read all 217 entries through both clients. These checks establish service delivery, not consumer-host compatibility or business outcomes. [Review standards](https://fidelic.ai/standards). ## Limits to keep in view A content plan does not establish demand or guarantee rankings. Search estimates and customer anecdotes should keep their scope; the business owner must confirm service claims. You approve public changes, account permissions and spending. Missing access should produce a specific next step or an explicit gap. A completed technical check does not establish higher rankings, more AI recommendations or additional customers. ## Related situations ### [Help customers find my business in AI answers](https://fidelic.ai/recipes/get-business-found-in-ai-answers) > Use the FidelicAI cookbook to help customers find my business at [URL] in AI answers for [service and place].
