Moderate AI visibility with 30 of 53 criteria passing. Biggest gap: llms.txt file.
Verdict
Below-average AEO readiness at 50/100 - multiple areas need attention. Key strengths include Canonical URL Strategy, Content Cannibalization, and Duplicate Content Blocks. Priority gaps: llms.txt File, Q&A Content Format, and RSS/Atom Feed.
How to Improve
Ensure clean, well-structured HTML with proper meta tags, HTTPS, and parseable content for AI crawlers.
Add a machine-readable llms.txt file at your domain root that describes your site, services, and key pages for AI engines.
Create a comprehensive llms-full.txt with detailed page descriptions, content summaries, and topic taxonomy.
Update robots.txt to explicitly allow AI crawlers and include sitemap directive.
Implement hreflang tags and lang attributes so AI engines serve the correct language version when answering queries.
Optimize compression, cache headers, redirect chains, and HTML payload size for faster AI crawler access.
Trim oversized HTML, excessive DOM nodes, and large inline payloads that slow AI crawlers.
Generate a comprehensive sitemap with lastmod dates for all important pages.
Minimize blocking scripts and stylesheets in <head> to improve content availability for AI crawlers.
Top Opportunities10
View allPublish original research, statistics, case studies, or proprietary data that AI engines can cite. Unique data points make your content a primary source rather than a derivative one.
Write concise, standalone answer paragraphs (2-3 sentences) immediately after question headings. These "snippet-ready" paragraphs are ideal for AI engine citations.
Add question-based headings (H2/H3) throughout your content. Use "What is...", "How does...", "Why should..." patterns that match how users query AI assistants.
Add inline citations to external sources, "According to [Source]..." attribution phrases, and a Sources section at the end of key articles.
Use HTML tables for comparison data and ordered/unordered lists for features, steps, and specifications. Structured data formats are directly extractable by AI engines for answers.
Place a concise 40-80 word answer block in the first 300 words of each page. Avoid throat-clearing openers like "In this article..." and lead with the answer.
Include "our analysis", "our data", "our testing" phrases backed by original research or proprietary data. 52.2% of AI-cited posts contain owned data signals.
Define the primary entity in the first 500 characters, use consistent terminology (same term 70%+), and add "unlike X" signals to help AI engines distinguish your topics.
Expand articles to 1000+ words with structured H2/H3 sections, comparison tables, and expert analysis. Thin content (under 300 words) is rarely cited by AI engines. Deep, well-structured articles demonstrate expertise.
Create a dedicated FAQ page with FAQPage schema markup. Cover common questions about your products, services, and industry to become a direct answer source for AI engines.
