The system should require evidence and differentiation before it creates an indexable location page. Generation speed should not determine publishing volume.

1. Require a valid service/location relationship and confirm the business actually serves the market.

2. Store structured local inputs such as neighborhoods, projects, testimonials, photos, service notes, climate/regulation context, and FAQs.

3. Use duplicate-detection rules to compare new pages with existing city and service content.

4. Create a minimum quality threshold before indexable status or sitemap inclusion is allowed.

5. Generate canonical, metadata, schema, and internal links from the same page record so signals stay aligned.

6. Support draft/review states so a human can verify claims before large batches publish.

Programmatic SEO is safest when the system automates assembly but requires genuine inputs. The goal is scalable usefulness, not scalable duplication.
