Clone Notes

Cloning a reference site is not about copying words or colors. The useful part is the information architecture: navigation, featured content, card density, trust cues, and conversion paths.

What must change

Replace the site topic with your real core keywords.
Turn featured sections into product-specific entry points.
Make article cards link to real detail pages.
Update the footer, OG image, favicon, sitemap, and robots output.

Completion check

A branded homepage should make the product clear in the first viewport, let users continue into detail pages, and expose crawlable pages for search engines.
