Moderate AI visibility with 34 of 53 criteria passing. Biggest gap: llms.txt file.
Verdict
Below-average AEO readiness at 58/100 - multiple areas need attention. Key strengths include Internal Linking Structure, Sitemap Completeness, and RSS/Atom Feed. Priority gaps: llms.txt File, Speakable Schema, and Query-Answer Alignment.
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.
Implement hreflang tags and lang attributes so AI engines serve the correct language version when answering queries.
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.
Ensure clean, well-structured HTML with proper meta tags, HTTPS, and parseable content for AI crawlers.
Top Opportunities10
View allSections within pages contain identical or near-identical text. LLMs may flag this as low-quality or thin content, reducing citation authority. Rewrite duplicate blocks with unique angles.
Publish 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.
Ensure every question-format heading (H2/H3) is followed by a direct answer paragraph. This pattern is ideal for AI engine snippet extraction.
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 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.
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.
Show direct use, testing, implementation, or lived experience with concrete observations, examples, screenshots, and lessons learned.
Establish a regular content publishing cadence with dated entries in your sitemap. Consistent publishing signals to AI engines that your site is an active, current information source.
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.
