Moderate AI visibility with 36 of 53 criteria passing. Biggest gap: llms.txt file.
Verdict
Below-average AEO readiness at 54/100 - multiple areas need attention. Key strengths include Fact & Data Density, Content Publishing Velocity, and Content Cannibalization. Priority gaps: llms.txt File, Comprehensive FAQ Section, and RSS/Atom Feed. Topic coherence is moderate at 5/10, capping the score at 60. Tighter topical focus would lift this ceiling.
How to Improve
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.
Ensure clean, well-structured HTML with proper meta tags, HTTPS, and parseable content for AI crawlers.
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.
112/132 images lack explicit width/height - the most common cause of layout shift (CLS)
Generate a comprehensive sitemap with lastmod dates for all important pages.
Add rel="canonical" tags to all pages to prevent duplicate content confusion.
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.
Top Opportunities10
View allEnsure blog content consistently covers your core expertise areas rather than scattering across unrelated topics. AI engines build authority models - a site about "Medicare coverage" that also publishes about humidifiers and groceries dilutes its topical authority.
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.
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.
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.
Add inline citations to external sources, "According to [Source]..." attribution phrases, and a Sources section at the end of key articles.
Show direct use, testing, implementation, or lived experience with concrete observations, examples, screenshots, and lessons learned.
Strengthen internal linking with descriptive anchor text between related pages. Add breadcrumb navigation and ensure every key page is reachable within 3 clicks from the homepage.
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.
Add Organization schema with consistent name, address, phone (NAP). Include sameAs links to social profiles and authoritative directories to strengthen entity recognition.
