Content Chunking
Structuring pages into self-contained sections with clear headings and direct answers so AI systems can extract and cite individual passages.

Short answer
Content chunking is the practice of structuring web pages into self-contained sections with clear headings and direct answers. Because AI systems often retrieve and cite individual passages rather than whole pages, well-defined chunks are easier to extract accurately. It also improves readability for people scanning content for specific information.
