PART 2 - Advanced Strategies Chapter 14 - GEO & AEO Keyword : fact density élevée

This criterion seems “simple”, but it causes many discrepancies in production.

The **M2 — High Fact Density** criterion is part of our SEO checklist (335 criteria). Here, you have a **practical** method to verify and fix it — with a concrete example.

What exactly this criterion covers

This criterion seems “simple”, but it causes many discrepancies in production.

**M2 — High Fact Density** (Chapter 14 - GEO & AEO): High ratio of verifiable facts per paragraph, +40% AI visibility

Why it matters (SEO + UX)

Why it matters: it is a safeguard against duplicate / cannibalization. When poorly applied, we often observe: ambiguity (wrong associated query), duplication between pages, or performance loss on Core Web Vitals.

On high-volume generated sites, this criterion also serves as a **safeguard**: a stable rule prevents 1,000 errors at once.

How to verify (step by step)

Approach: check in crawl (list + export). Recommended tool: **Google Search Console**.

  1. Open the source code and locate the concerned element (tag/structure).
  2. Check the hierarchy and coherence with H1 + intro.
  3. Run a crawl to detect pages violating the criterion.

Tip: first isolate 10 “representative” URLs (top pages + generated pages) before scaling the fix.

How to properly fix

Strategy: fix + add a safeguard for bulk import.

  • Rewrite the plan: clear H1, H2 = sub-questions, H3 = details.
  • Add a differentiating element (scope, method, example) to avoid duplication.
  • Check coherence with intent (info / comparison / action).

Then: re-crawl 50–200 URLs, then monitor Search Console for 7–14 days (impressions/CTR/indexing).

Concrete example (illustrative)

Example (illustrative):

  • **Context**: blog article for aesthetic clinic in Marseille
  • **Before**: generic H1 + sections without hierarchy (incoherent H2/H3).
  • **After**: intent-oriented H1 + H2 by sub-questions (case: blog article — aesthetic clinic).
  • **Note**: Goal: make the plan “scannable” and aligned with intent.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions — M2

What is the most common error on “High Fact Density”?

Applying an automatic pattern that is too generic (same logic on all pages) without adding a differentiating element.

Which tool is the fastest for large-scale control?

For this type of criterion, a crawl (e.g. Screaming Frog) + targeted verification in Google Search Console is generally the fastest combo.

How to prevent this from happening again on 10K generated pages?

Freeze an auto-generation rule (title/structure/schema/URLs) + add automatic control (crawl or test) before production import.
