AEO readiness checklist

The 12 checks that decide whether AI engines can cite your website.

Structured data

Is there a complete JSON-LD graph, or nothing at all?

Crawler access

Does robots.txt allow GPTBot, PerplexityBot and friends?

Answer shape

Can a machine lift a clean answer from your pages?

Speed

Does the page render before a crawler gives up on it?

Most websites fail AEO for boring, fixable reasons: no structured data, AI crawlers accidentally blocked, content written as marketing fluff rather than answers, and pages too slow to finish loading.

Work through these checks on your own site. Anything you can't confidently tick is costing you citations in AI answers right now.

Questions people ask

How do I know if AI can read my website?

Check four things: that your pages ship real HTML rather than an empty shell, that a JSON-LD block describes your business, that robots.txt doesn't block AI crawlers, and that pages load in under a second or two.

Is this checklist free?

Yes, completely free, with no email required. If you'd rather we just fixed it, that's what our builds do.
