# Audit Website AEO

> Audit a website's AEO/GEO readiness with an 8-category A-F scorecard (semantic HTML5, schema…

An evidence-based audit that scores a website's readiness for AI search engines across 8 weighted categories and outputs an A-F report card. It measures the real likelihood that ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI Overviews can crawl and cite your pages, replacing hours of manual review with a reproducible 30-second scan.

## Use cases
- Producing a baseline AEO score for a new client at onboarding
- Diagnosing why AI assistants aren't surfacing a site
- Building a before/after comparison to prove sprint improvements
- Benchmarking a site against competitors with a gap analysis
- Generating a client-ready score report in plain language
- Running a batch audit across many pages on a schedule

## Benefits
- Know your exact AI-search readiness instead of guessing whether you're visible
- Turn an F into an A- with a clear, prioritized three-step roadmap
- Defend every finding with DOM and HTTP evidence rather than opinion
- Prove progress with archived before/after deltas, not vague claims

## What’s included
- 8-category scoring rubric covering schema, content depth, semantic HTML and AI bot access
- Playwright-plus-HTTP crawler that captures HTML, JSON-LD and crawler signals
- Per-engine breakdown showing where you're weak across five AI engines
- Client report template with a 30-second summary, top-3 fixes and a glossary
- Before/after delta comparison with archived score history
- Gap-analysis mode comparing you against sector average and top competitor

## Who it’s for
SEO teams and agencies that need a defensible, repeatable AI-search readiness score for clients without paying for a monthly SaaS.

## How it runs
How ready is your site for AI search? The skill grades it A+ to F across eight weighted categories, with evidence attached to every point it gives or takes away:
1. Fetches the page with a headless browser (waiting for network idle so SPA content actually renders) and in parallel pulls robots.txt, sitemap.xml, llms.txt and ai.txt.
2. Scores 8 weighted categories: JSON-LD schema (20%), content depth (18%), semantic HTML5 (15%), AI bot accessibility (15%), meta tags (10%), OpenGraph (8%), crawler signals (8%) and author entity (6%).
3. Attaches evidence to every point decision, a DOM quote, an HTTP header or a file URL, so the question 'why is this a D' is answerable in one click instead of an opinion.
4. Breaks the result down per engine, because ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI Overviews weight the same signals differently; the report shows where you are weak in which engine.
5. Converts the weighted total into an A+ to F letter grade and renders the client-facing report: a Top 3 fix card, a staged roadmap to A, and a plain-language glossary instead of jargon.
6. Archives every run as a dated scorecard, so the next audit produces a before/after delta table with real numbers rather than a feeling that things improved.

## FAQ
### Does this work on any website, or only certain platforms?
It audits any crawlable site, because it's measuring whether AI engines can reach and cite your pages, which doesn't depend on your CMS. The output is the same A-F report card regardless of how the site is built.

### If I score an A, am I guaranteed to show up in ChatGPT and Perplexity?
No, it scores readiness, the likelihood those engines can crawl and cite you, not a promise that they will. Citation also depends on relevance and authority; this removes the technical reasons you'd be invisible.

### Once the A-F report card is in hand, is applying the fixes part of the audit too?
It diagnoses and scores across eight weighted categories; the fixing is a separate sprint. Its job is the defensible before-and-after measurement so you can prove the work moved the number.
