GEO & AI-Search Readiness

Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) is the practice of making content more likely to be surfaced by generative AI search. SiteScore uses heuristics to assess content clarity, entity information, accessibility, and discoverability — not to prove that a specific AI engine cites your page.

What this feature checks

5 checks in this category. Every check links to the source markup it inspects.

Entity mentions

Surfaces capitalized noun phrases as potential entities.

Content clarity

Short-introduction and summary detection.

Accessibility signals

Alt text, landmarks, and skip-link presence.

Discoverability signals

Sitemap and robots references, internal links.

Structured data

Presence of schema.org markup that describes the page.

How the analysis works

A straightforward look at what happens when you run this analysis.

  1. 1

    SiteScore combines several heuristic checks into an AI-search readiness summary.

  2. 2

    Each contributing signal is shown individually so you can see what drives the assessment.

  3. 3

    The summary is directional, not a guarantee of inclusion in any AI search result.

Example findings

What a finding looks like

Each finding includes severity, observed evidence, and a suggested fix. The data below is labeled sample data.

No structured data describing the page

No WebPage, Article, or similar schema type detected.

Warning
Suggested remediation

Add JSON-LD describing the page to help AI systems parse its meaning.

Honest limits

Evidence and limitations

  • The AI-search readiness assessment does not prove any specific engine indexes, recommends, or cites your page.
  • Heuristics are proxies based on common guidance, not on access to AI engine internals.
Practical guidance

How to act on findings

Treat each finding as a starting point. Use the evidence panel to locate the relevant markup, apply the suggested fix, then re-run the analysis to confirm the issue is resolved.

Severity is a guide, not a rule. A warning that affects your primary content may matter more than a critical issue on a low-traffic page.

Combine SiteScore with official tools — Search Console, the Rich Results Test, and PageSpeed Insights — for a complete picture.
