Moderate AI visibility with 35 of 53 criteria passing. Biggest gap: content licensing & ai permissions.
Verdict
Below-average AEO readiness at 59/100 - multiple areas need attention. Key strengths include llms.txt File, Schema.org Structured Data, and Comprehensive FAQ Section. Priority gaps: Content Licensing & AI Permissions, Speakable Schema, and Owned Data Density.
How to Improve
Minimize blocking scripts and stylesheets in <head> to improve content availability for AI crawlers.
Update robots.txt to explicitly allow AI crawlers and include sitemap directive.
Trim oversized HTML, excessive DOM nodes, and large inline payloads that slow AI crawlers.
Implement hreflang tags and lang attributes so AI engines serve the correct language version when answering queries.
Ensure clean, well-structured HTML with proper meta tags, HTTPS, and parseable content for AI crawlers.
Optimize compression, cache headers, redirect chains, and HTML payload size for faster AI crawler access.
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 20-25 word self-contained answer sentences immediately after each H2 heading. 72.4% of AI-cited posts use this pattern - it gives engines a ready-made snippet to quote.
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.
Add inline citations to external sources, "According to [Source]..." attribution phrases, and a Sources section at the end of key articles.
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.
Add question-based headings (H2/H3) throughout your content. Use "What is...", "How does...", "Why should..." patterns that match how users query AI assistants.
The same paragraphs appear on multiple pages. AI engines may only index one version and ignore the rest. Rewrite shared content so each page offers a unique perspective.
Write self-contained definition sentences and single-claim statements that AI engines can quote directly. Avoid pronouns like "this" or "that" at the start of answer paragraphs.
Show direct use, testing, implementation, or lived experience with concrete observations, examples, screenshots, and lessons learned.
Rewrite multi-clause sentences into single-claim statements under 20 words. Pages with Flesch-Kincaid grade 16 outperform grade 19 in citation rates.
