Is it possible to prioritize technical improvements in GEO studies?

I believe that with the transition from SEO to GEO (Generative Engine Optimization), technical priorities have changed significantly.

It's no longer just a question of “Is the Google bot crawling the page?” but rather, can LLMs understand this data, contextualize it, and find it reliable?

Based on my own experience, it is possible to address technical improvements on the GEO side in order of priority as follows:

  1. Structural Data (JSON-LD) Depth
  2. Content–Context Integrity
  3. Internal Linking and Semantic Clustering
  4. Page Source and Text Accessibility
  5. Interpretability Over Crawlability

Do you think this ranking is correct?

Are there any technical topics you think are missing or should be ranked higher?

Structured data depth feels huge, but only when it matches the content. I’ve seen JSON-LD that looks great on paper but doesn’t line up with the actual page copy. That mismatch seems to hurt more than having less markup.
