Weak AI visibility with 22 of 53 criteria passing. Biggest gap: llms.txt file.
Verdict
Below-average AEO readiness at 48/100 - multiple areas need attention. Key strengths include Canonical URL Strategy, Content Publishing Velocity, and Topic Coherence. Priority gaps: llms.txt File, Schema.org Structured Data, and Comprehensive FAQ Section.
How to Improve
Ensure clean, well-structured HTML with proper meta tags, HTTPS, and parseable content for AI crawlers.
Update robots.txt to explicitly allow AI crawlers and include sitemap directive.
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.
Minimize blocking scripts and stylesheets in <head> to improve content availability for AI crawlers.
Optimize compression, cache headers, redirect chains, and HTML payload size for faster AI crawler access.
102/102 images lack explicit width/height - the most common cause of layout shift (CLS)
Generate a comprehensive sitemap with lastmod dates for all important pages.
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.
Add specific numbers, percentages, statistics, and data points throughout your content. Fact-dense content gives AI engines concrete data to cite rather than vague claims.
Add question-based headings (H2/H3) throughout your content. Use "What is...", "How does...", "Why should..." patterns that match how users query AI assistants.
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.
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.
Write concise, standalone answer paragraphs (2-3 sentences) immediately after question headings. These "snippet-ready" paragraphs are ideal for AI engine citations.
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.
Ensure every question-format heading (H2/H3) is followed by a direct answer paragraph. This pattern is ideal for AI engine snippet extraction.
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.
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.
