How to Improve
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.
Ensure clean, well-structured HTML with proper meta tags, HTTPS, and parseable content for AI crawlers.
Trim oversized HTML, excessive DOM nodes, and large inline payloads that slow AI crawlers.
137/195 images lack explicit width/height - the most common cause of layout shift (CLS)
Generate a comprehensive sitemap with lastmod dates for all important pages.
Optimize compression, cache headers, redirect chains, and HTML payload size for faster AI crawler access.
Top Opportunities10
View allWrite 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 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.
Rewrite multi-clause sentences into single-claim statements under 20 words. Pages with Flesch-Kincaid grade 16 outperform grade 19 in citation rates.
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 named attribution and outbound links to authoritative sources for factual claims in content pages. Claims with visible sources are what AI engines trust and quote; unsourced claims read as opinion.

Shorten sentences to under 25 words, use active voice in lead paragraphs, define jargon inline, and avoid hiding content behind accordions or display:none.
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.
Explain how pages were tested, researched, reviewed, or updated. Add methodology, criteria, sample-size, or review-process details where users expect them.
