Moderate AI visibility with 27 of 53 criteria passing. Biggest gap: llms.txt file.
Verdict
Below-average AEO readiness at 52/100 - multiple areas need attention. Key strengths include Direct Answer Paragraphs, Fact & Data Density, and Duplicate Content Blocks. Priority gaps: llms.txt File, Schema.org Structured Data, and Semantic HTML5 & Accessibility.
How to Improve
Generate a comprehensive sitemap with lastmod dates for all important pages.
Update robots.txt to explicitly allow AI crawlers and include sitemap directive.
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.
Implement hreflang tags and lang attributes so AI engines serve the correct language version when answering queries.
Add rel="canonical" tags to all pages to prevent duplicate content confusion.
611/687 images lack explicit width/height - the most common cause of layout shift (CLS)
Optimize compression, cache headers, redirect chains, and HTML payload size for faster AI crawler access.
Minimize blocking scripts and stylesheets in <head> to improve content availability for AI crawlers.
Trim oversized HTML, excessive DOM nodes, and large inline payloads that slow 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 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.
Add Organization schema with consistent name, address, phone (NAP). Include sameAs links to social profiles and authoritative directories to strengthen entity recognition.
Add inline citations to external sources, "According to [Source]..." attribution phrases, and a Sources section at the end of key articles.
Ensure every question-format heading (H2/H3) is followed by a direct answer paragraph. This pattern is ideal for AI engine snippet extraction.
Include dateModified schema, visible last-updated dates, and time elements on content pages. Fresh content signals help AI engines prioritize your pages over stale alternatives.
Add question-based headings (H2/H3) throughout your content. Use "What is...", "How does...", "Why should..." patterns that match how users query AI assistants.
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.
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.
Implement JSON-LD structured data (Organization, Service, Product, FAQPage) on key pages. Schema markup helps AI engines extract and cite your content accurately.
