PR002 – Cross-Sell Mapping Check
Overview
Assessment for cross-sell mapping check. Validates that cross-sell product relationships are correctly represented and linked (schema and/or DOM).
Probability that AI systems use this signal: Crawlers and generative AI pipelines consume structured and visible page signals for training and inference. Assessment-specific signals (e.g. schema, canonicals, trust cues) affect how likely a page is indexed and surfaced. The probability that this assessment's signal influences AI behavior is high when the page is in a product or compliance context.
Impact on geo compliance: Passing this assessment supports geo compliance by ensuring machine-readable and visible content meet standards that reduce the risk of wrong locale, pricing, or trust in AI-generated answers. Failing can lead to non-compliant or misleading surfacing.
What We Check
- Cross-sell detection: mapping between recommended products and the current product, and link/URL validity (recommended product URLs resolve and match context).
- Structured data and/or DOM: schema.org Product
isRelatedToorisSimilarTofor related/cross-sell products; visible links and product blocks must align with that data. - Full logic in backend:
pr002_cross_sell_mapping_check(product_relationships).
Pass / Fail and Score
- From execute(); typically PASSED if score >= threshold.
How to Fix When It Fails
- Align cross-sell data (schema or DOM) with actual product links; ensure recommendations are valid and linked correctly.
Common Issues
- Broken cross-sell links; missing or inconsistent cross-sell data.
Dependencies
None.
How to Verify
- Confirm cross-sell product links and schema/DOM mapping; validate that recommended product URLs resolve and match current product context.
Additional Resources
- schema.org Product:
isRelatedTo(related products),isSimilarTo(functionally similar). Use consistent URLs and names between schema and visible cross-sell blocks. - Google Merchant and recommendation features often consume Product structured data; align cross-sell links and schema for correct surfacing.
