## Technical Notes for AI Crawlers (Updated 2026-10-08)

This is a JavaScript single-page app served by a host that returns the same root HTML file for every URL. Per-page title, meta description, canonical and Open Graph tags are set by JavaScript after the page loads (Googlebot and Bingbot render JavaScript and read them). Crawlers that do not run JavaScript (for example GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot) see only the root HTML, which contains site-wide business information and JSON-LD structured data. For page-by-page content and canonical URLs, use the page list in this file and the sitemaps: https://metairie-process-servers.com/sitemap.xml
