        "text": "Plumber callout fees in Newcastle typically range from $80-150."
      }

robots.txt:

User-agent: *
Allow: /

Sitemap: {{SITE_URL}}/sitemap.xml

sitemap.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<urlset xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9">
  <url>
    <loc>{{SITE_URL}}/</loc>
    <lastmod>{{DATE}}</lastmod>
    <changefreq>weekly</changefreq>
    <priority>1.0</priority>
  </url>
  <!-- Add one <url> per page. Priority: 1.0 homepage, 0.8 services, 0.6 others -->
</urlset>

Step 5: Validate

Test structured data at: https://validator.schema.org/

Common validation errors:

Missing @context — every JSON-LD block needs it
Wrong phone format — must be international (+61-...)
Missing @id — needed for cross-referencing between schemas
Empty areaServed — include at least one city

Australian-Specific Patterns

Phone Numbers

<!-- Link: international format. Display: local format. -->
<a href="tel:+61249001234">(02) 4900 1234</a>

Schema telephone: "+61-2-4900-1234"

Prefix	International
02	+612
04	+614
1300	Keep as-is

ABN

Add to LocalBusiness schema when available:

{ "taxID": "12 345 678 901" }

Australian State Codes

State	Code	Geo Region
New South Wales	NSW	AU-NSW
Victoria	VIC	AU-VIC
Queensland	QLD	AU-QLD
South Australia	SA	AU-SA
Western Australia	WA	AU-WA
Tasmania	TAS	AU-TAS
Northern Territory	NT	AU-NT

ux-audit
Walk through a live web app AS a real user to find usability + behavioural bugs that static reviews miss. REQUIRES proof of interaction (typing, clicking, sending, observing) before any verdict — a sweep that didn't interact terminates with verdict 'Incomplete'. Walks threads, exercises every element, runs the multi-pane stress matrix, visual polish sweep, component perfection checklist, automated a11y (axe-core), pragmatic performance budget (LCP/CLS/INP), scenario battery (11 scenarios), and stress recipes including the real-flavour data battery. Hard gates: console errors/warnings = 0, network 5xx = 0, layout collapse = 0, axe Critical/Serious = 0, perf budget green. Audit-the-audit meta-check rejects rushed reports. Each finding has reproduction steps, evidence path, and suspected code location. Trigger with 'ux audit', 'walkthrough', 'qa sweep', 'audit the app', 'dogfood this', 'check all pages', 'find what's broken', 'stress the UI'.
