Structural signals measured directly. Citability is an AI judgment on top of that.
Page URL

Why

Puts the actual scoring input above the fold with the plan's H1 and a repeated primary CTA, so the product is unmistakable before the long educational content, and the H1 carries the primary keyword. (Rule 3, Rule 4, content improvement 1)

3. Text section (rich-text) — id `b3`

New section — New section unpacking score range and methodology, which the page only hinted at with one line before.

Layout

Layout:

<h2> How the score works

Copy (exact)

How the score works
The AEO scorer checks a single page against the structural and semantic signals AI search engines use when deciding what to extract and cite: crawlability, heading hierarchy, whether each section answers its own question in the first sentences, use of lists and tables over dense paragraphs, and the presence of author, date and sourcing information. These structural signals are measured directly from the page's HTML and text. Whether an AI engine actually chooses to cite the page for a given query is a separate judgment the AI makes at query time, based on competing pages, freshness and relevance — the score tells you how ready the page is, not a guarantee of citation.
Scores are reported on a 0-100 scale with a breakdown by signal group, so you can see which specific fix — a missing heading, a buried answer, an unsupported claim — is holding the score down.

Why

Unpacks the score range and what is measured directly versus judged by the AI, so buyers can compare this tool against competitors like HubSpot's AEO Grader, addressing a named content gap. (content improvement 7)

4. Benefits (benefits, variant "icons-4") — id `b4`

New section — New card layout naming the four signal groups the scorer checks, making the product mechanics explicit rather than implied inside the 'how AI decides' prose.

Layout

Layout: heading + intro paragraph, then 4 items as compact cards, title + one line, 4 per row (2 on mobile).

Headings

<h2> What the scorer checks
<h3> Indexability and crawlability
<h3> Structure and hierarchy
<h3> Direct answers
<h3> Trust and sourcing

Copy (exact)

What the scorer checks
Four groups of signals, each measured directly from the page.
Indexability and crawlability
Confirms the page returns a 200 status, is not blocked by robots.txt to AI crawlers, and is parse-able as plain text.
Structure and hierarchy
Checks heading tags (h1, h2, h3), lists, tables and whether the content is broken into scannable sections rather than one long paragraph.
Direct answers
Looks for a clear answer in the first 40-60 words of each section, rather than the answer buried in narrative text.
Trust and sourcing
Checks for author information, publication or last-updated dates, and links to sources that support any data or claims on the page.

Why

Breaks the dense 'how AI decides' content into four scannable outcome cards instead of one long paragraph block, serving both readers and AI parsers. (content improvement 6)

5. Text section (rich-text) — id `b5`

Rewritten — Rebuilds 'How AEO Differs From Traditional SEO' content as a direct answer to the AI-search prompt 'How to check if content is optimized for AI search?' and adds the AEO guide link.

Layout

Layout:
heading, then 2 paragraphs of body text at reading width (max ~70 characters per line).

Headings

<h2> How to check if content is optimized for AI search?

Copy (exact)

How to check if content is optimized for AI search?
Run the page through an AEO scorer that checks indexability, heading structure, whether each section answers its question in the first sentences, and whether claims are backed by sources. A page ready for AI search is crawlable, broken into clearly headed sections, answers directly near the top of each section, uses lists or tables for anything with multiple parts, and cites where its data comes from. Read the full 2026 guide to answer engine optimization for the complete set of practices behind each of these checks.
Pages that rank well in Google can still fail this test, because ranking and citation use different mechanics: ranking rewards backlinks and keyword relevance, while citation rewards structure, clarity and verifiable sourcing that an AI can extract with confidence.

Why

Gives the AI-search prompt its own self-contained, citable passage and links out to the full AEO guide for readers who want more depth. (Rule 5)

6. Text section (rich-text) — id `b6`

Rewritten — Reworks the single-page vs full-stack section into a direct answer for the 'AEO optimization tool' prompt and adds the on-page-scorer internal link that was missing.

Layout

Layout:
heading, then 2 paragraphs of body text at reading width (max ~70 characters per line).

Headings

<h2> AEO optimization tool

Copy (exact)

AEO optimization tool
An AEO optimization tool scores a page against the structural requirements AI search engines use when extracting answers, then returns specific fixes: which headings need rewriting as questions, which sections bury their answer too deep, which claims lack a source. Single-page tools like this one are best for auditing one page before it goes live, learning what a good AEO score looks like, and testing whether a change improved the score. You can check traditional on-page SEO alongside AEO to see where the two overlap and where they diverge — most structural improvements help both, but a page can rank well in Google and still be ignored by an AI engine if it lacks direct answers or sourcing.
Full-stack AEO platforms do a different job: they track citation frequency across every page on a site, across multiple AI engines, over time. A single-page tool answers whether one page is optimised; a full-stack platform answers how often your brand gets cited overall.

Why

Answers the 'AEO optimization tool' prompt directly and cross-links to the on-page SEO scorer, addressing the requested SEO-vs-AEO contextual link. (Rule 5, content improvement 5)

7. Text section (rich-text) — id `b7`

New section — New section directly answering 'Test content for ChatGPT', adding the fan-out-queries and llms.txt links plus the free-tools hub link, none of which had contextual placement before.

Layout

Layout:
heading, then 1 paragraphs of body text at reading width (max ~70 characters per line).

Headings

<h2> Test content for ChatGPT

Copy (exact)

Test content for ChatGPT
There is no separate test for ChatGPT alone, because ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews rely on the same underlying mechanics: the content must be crawlable, structured with clear headings, and directly answerable, and it must show trust signals such as sourcing and dates. Testing a page for AEO readiness checks all of these at once, which covers ChatGPT along with the other major answer engines rather than any one of them in isolation. You can also simulate AI query fan-out for your topic to see the range of related questions an AI might ask on the way to answering the main one, which shows whether your page's coverage is broad enough to be pulled in as a source, and generate an llms.txt file to make your site's structure explicit to AI crawlers. For a full library of checks, browse all free SEO and AEO tools.

Why

Answers 'test content for ChatGPT' as its own citable section and places two of the plan's free-tool internal links naturally in context. (Rule 5, Rule 4)

8. Text section (rich-text) — id `b8`

New section — New section directly answering 'How to score pages for answer engines', a question the page never addressed head-on as its own passage.

Layout

Layout:
heading, then 2 paragraphs of body text at reading width (max ~70 characters per line).

Headings

<h2> How to score pages for answer engines

Copy (exact)

How to score pages for answer engines
Score a page for answer engines by checking five things in order: whether the page is crawlable and indexable, whether it uses heading tags to organise content into clear sections, whether each section answers its heading's question within the first 40-60 words, whether it uses lists and tables instead of dense paragraphs for anything with multiple parts, and whether claims are backed by named sources, dates and author information. A page that passes all five is easy for an AI system to parse, verify and extract from with confidence.
Running this check on one page at a time is a good starting point. Once you are managing more than a handful of pages, tracking these signals — plus actual citation counts across engines — becomes a full-site job rather than a single-page one.

Why

Answers the fourth AI-search prompt with a complete, standalone methodology passage rather than folding it into another section. (Rule 5)

9. CTA band (cta-band, variant "banner") — id `b9`

New section — New mid-page CTA band pushing the full-site audit and generative-engine-optimization feature page — previously this upsell only existed as a passing mention of full-stack platforms with no CTA.

Layout

Layout: full-width band in the primary colour, centered heading + body + button.
Button -> /app.

Why

Strengthens the upsell path to the paid full-stack product right after the tool and initial explanation, as the analysis asked for, without waiting until the very end of the page. (content improvement 8)

10. Process (process, variant "steps") — id `b10`

Rewritten — Restructures the 'How AI Search Engines Decide What to Cite' wall of prose into five named steps, addressing the missing-H3 issue.

Layout: heading, then 5 numbered steps as equal columns (stack on mobile).

Copy (exact)

How AI search engines decide what to cite
Find the content
The page must be crawlable: no robots.txt block on AI crawlers, a 200 status response, and text an AI can parse the way a human reads it.
Understand the content
Clear headings, subheadings and sections let an AI find the relevant part of a page. Tables, lists and numbered steps signal structure over dense prose.
Verify trustworthiness
The AI looks for E-E-A-T signals: author information, publication date, credentials and sourcing. Claims with data or quotes attributed to a source are trusted more than unsupported statements.
Extract reliably
Content must be unambiguous and directly answerable. A page stating three named pricing tiers can be cited with confidence; a page saying 'pricing varies' cannot.
Choose the best source
Citation frequency, freshness and relevance decide which of several similar pages gets picked. Updated, directly relevant pages beat old or tangential ones.

Why

Turns the existing 'How AI Search Engines Decide What to Cite' wall of text into named steps with an implicit H3-level hierarchy, easier for both visitors and AI parsers to scan. (content improvement 6)

11. Benefits (benefits, variant "checklist") — id `b11`

Rewritten — Converts the nine-item numbered 'Best Practices' list into a checklist card block, keeping every original point but easier to scan.

Layout: heading + intro paragraph, then 8 items as a two-column list, each row led by a check mark (one column on mobile).

<h3> Keep sentences and paragraphs short

Copy (exact)

Best practices for answer engine optimization
The same practices that make content easier for AI to extract also make it clearer for human readers.
Use question-based headings
Write 'How Does This Work?' instead of 'Overview' so both humans and AI know what the section answers.
Answer in the first 40-60 words
Do not bury the answer in narrative text. State it plainly at the start of the section, then add detail below.
Use lists and tables
When you have multiple items or a comparison, use a bulleted list, numbered list or table rather than a paragraph.
Include author, date and sources
Add a byline, a publication or last-updated date, and links to your sources. These are direct trust signals.
Use schema markup
Label FAQ content with FAQPage schema, articles with Article schema, and defined terms with DefinitionSchema so AI systems know what they are reading.
Show multiple perspectives
If a question has more than one valid answer or trade-off, present them. AI systems reward nuance over single flat answers.
Write specific, scannable headings
'Automatic Backups, Real-Time Monitoring, and Daily Reports' helps an AI find the exact detail faster than 'Features' does.
Keep sentences and paragraphs short
Read the page aloud. If a sentence needs a second read, rewrite it. Break up any paragraph longer than four or five sentences.

Why

Converts the nine numbered best-practice items into a checklist card layout, keeping every point but making it scannable rather than a dense numbered list. (content improvement 6)

12. Comparison (comparison, variant "two-column") — id `b12`

Rewritten — Turns the 'Single-Page Analysis vs. Full-Stack AEO Platforms' prose section into a direct comparison table, same content, clearer structure.

Frequently asked questions
How do I check if content is optimized for AI search?
Run it through an AEO scorer that checks crawlability, heading structure, direct answers near the top of each section, and sourcing.
What does the AEO optimization tool actually measure?
Structural signals: indexability, heading hierarchy, answer clarity, lists/tables, and author/date/sourcing information.
Can I test content for ChatGPT specifically?
The scorer checks the shared structural signals ChatGPT, Perplexity and AI Overviews all use, rather than one engine's private ranking factors.
How do you score pages for answer engines?
By checking indexability, heading structure, early direct answers, structured lists/tables, and sourcing, in that order.
Is the AEO scorer free to use?
Yes. Scoring one URL is free. A full-site audit with a prioritised fix list is part of the paid product.
How is this different from a full-site AEO platform?
This scores one page. A full-stack platform tracks citation frequency across every page and multiple AI engines over time.

Why

Captures the plan's four AI-search prompts plus two extra real buyer questions as short answers with FAQPage schema for rich results. (Rule 7)

14. CTA band (cta-band, variant "banner") — id `b14`
