3. Homepage Audit

  • ⚠️ Missing canonical link Add <link rel="canonical" href="https://your-domain"> to prevent dup-content confusion.
  • ❌ Open Graph: missing title, description, image
  • ⚠️ No Twitter Card tags Add twitter:card, twitter:title, twitter:description, twitter:image for richer previews in social and AI agent surfaces.
  • ⚠️ Content volume: 298 words Thin content. Aim for 300+ words on the homepage so AI models can extract a useful description.
  • ⚠️ Favicon missing Add <link rel="icon" href="/favicon.ico"> (and an apple-touch-icon) so AI citation cards have a brand mark.
  • ✅ Homepage fetched successfully HTTP 200 · 7764 bytes · 221ms
  • ✅ Page load time: 0.22s Fast — well within AI crawler budgets.
  • ✅ declared
  • ✅ Single H1 A portfolio that works as hard as the art.
  • ✅ <title> present (47 chars)
  • ✅ Meta description present (72 chars)
  • ✅ Critical content is server-rendered Raw and rendered text are within 84% of each other.
  • ✅ Alt text coverage: 100% 12/12 images have alt text.
  • ✅ Heading structure: 12 (h1:1, h2:4, h3:7) Multiple headings help AI chunk and outline your page.
  • ✅ Internal links: 14 14 internal + 12 external links help crawlers navigate.

4. Content Quality

  • ⚠️ Snippet-ready blocks: 1 (ul:0, ol:1, table:0) Add bullet lists, numbered steps, or a comparison table. Answer engines prefer structured blocks over prose.
  • ⚠️ No question-style headings found Phrase at least one heading as a user question (e.g. 'How does pricing work?') to match conversational AI queries.
  • ⚠️ No date signal found Add or article:published_time meta. AI ranking weights freshness.
  • ⚠️ No author byline found Add <meta name="author" content="Name"> or a visible byline with rel="author". Strengthens E-E-A-T signals.
  • ✅ Heading levels are well-ordered 12 headings nested in order.
  • ✅ Text-to-HTML ratio: 27.2% Visible text density is healthy for AI extraction.

5. Schema / Structured Data Audit

  • ❌ No JSON-LD structured data found Add JSON-LD blocks (Organization, SoftwareApplication, FAQPage, BreadcrumbList) so AI answer engines can ingest your data without guessing.

6. Links & Images

7. Performance

  • ✅ Page size: 8 KB Compact HTML payload — well within AI crawler limits.
  • ✅ Resource requests: 16 (scripts:2, css:2, img:12) Reasonable request count.
  • ✅ No render-blocking head scripts All head scripts use async or defer.
  • ✅ Response time: 221ms Fast first response.
  • ✅ Cache-Control set Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate
  • ✅ Compression enabled (gzip) Content-Encoding: gzip
  • ✅ Lazy loading: 11/12 images

8. Security

  • ⚠️ HSTS missing Add Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains once you're confident in https.
  • ⚠️ Content-Security-Policy missing Define a CSP to limit script sources — large reduction in XSS surface.
  • ⚠️ X-Frame-Options missing Add X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN (or use CSP frame-ancestors) to prevent clickjacking.
  • ⚠️ Permissions-Policy missing Restrict browser features (camera, mic, geolocation) you don't use.
  • ✅ Served over HTTPS
  • ✅ No mixed content detected
  • ✅ X-Content-Type-Options set nosniff
  • ✅ Referrer-Policy set strict-origin-when-cross-origin

9. robots.txt and sitemap.xml Audit

  • ❌ sitemap.xml not found No /sitemap.xml was reachable and robots.txt has no Sitemap: directive. Add /sitemap.xml — required for reliable AI/SERP discovery.
  • ⚠️ robots.txt not found No /robots.txt was reachable. Add one explicitly — silence is read differently by different crawlers, and you lose the chance to control AI bots.

10. LLM / AI Crawler Accessibility

  • ⚠️ llms.txt missing Add /llms.txt — a concise, link-rich summary that helps LLMs orient on your site.
  • ⚠️ skill.md missing Add /skill.md describing what your site lets agents do — speeds up agent task routing.
  • ⚠️ /.well-known/security.txt missing Publish a /.well-known/security.txt with at least a Contact: line. Crawlers and security researchers expect it; AI systems use it as a trust signal.
  • ⚠️ /llms-full.txt missing Add /llms-full.txt with concatenated Markdown of all key pages. Lets LLMs ingest your full site in one request.

11. Positioning Clarity

  • ⚠️ No clear About/Team link Add an About or Team link in the nav or footer so LLMs can identify the company.
  • ⚠️ Value-prop language not detected Pages with phrases like 'we help X', 'platform for Y', 'built for Z' are easier for LLMs to summarize.
  • ✅ H1 communicates value A portfolio that works as hard as the art.
  • ✅ Pricing path discoverable
  • ✅ Contact / signup path discoverable

12. Missing or Hard-to-Find Information

  • ❌ 8 data point(s) could not be found from public pages · Customer logos · Social proof · Recent launches · Blog post activity · New hires · Positioning · Executive team · Case studies or testimonials

  • ⚠️ Create or enrich /llms.txt Follow the llmstxt.org spec:

    # Your Brand

> One-line description of your site.

## Docs

- [Getting Started](https://yoursite.com/docs/start): How to get up and running.
- [API Reference](https://yoursite.com/docs/api): Full API details.

## About

- [About us](https://yoursite.com/about): Mission and team.

    Include at least 2 section headings, 3+ linked resources, and a brief description per link. A rich llms.txt dramatically increases how often generative AI systems cite your content.

  • ⚠️ Fix broken homepage links We HEAD-probed the first 20 unique homepage links and found 4xx/5xx responses. Repair or remove them — broken links erode crawler trust.

  • ⚠️ Publish a sitemap.xml Generate /sitemap.xml automatically (Next.js: app/sitemap.ts). Include every canonical URL.

  • ⚠️ Add JSON-LD structured data Start with Organization on the root layout and SoftwareApplication or Product on /pricing. Add FAQPage on any FAQ section.

  • ⚠️ Add sameAs knowledge graph links to Organization schema Extend your Organization JSON-LD to include sameAs pointing to authoritative directories:

    {
  "@context": "https://schema.org",
  "@type": "Organization",
  "name": "Your Brand",
  "url": "https://yoursite.com",
  "sameAs": [
    "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Your_Brand",
    "https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q12345678",
    "https://www.linkedin.com/company/your-brand",
    "https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/your-brand"
  ]
}

    These links anchor your brand as a known entity in AI knowledge graphs, making it far more likely that generative models cite you by name rather than paraphrase.

  • ⚠️ Add an AI agent integration file At minimum, add a skill.md at /skill.md so Claude and similar agents can discover your API:

    # Your Brand Skill

API endpoint: https://yoursite.com/api
Auth: Bearer token

## Tools

- search: Search the knowledge base
- get_article: Retrieve a full article by ID

    Also consider /.well-known/ai-plugin.json (ChatGPT plugin discovery) and /.well-known/agent-card.json (Google A2A protocol) for broader agent compatibility.

  • ⚠️ Declare your brand name in Organization JSON-LD Add "name": "Your Brand" to your Organization or SoftwareApplication schema block. AI systems match structured-data names against training data to resolve your brand as a distinct entity. Without it, mentions of your brand may not be attributed to you.

  • ⚠️ Add /llms.txt A short Markdown-flavored summary at the root. Include your H1, value prop, top 5–10 links, and pricing summary.

  • ⚠️ Make your About/Team page reachable Add a top-nav or footer link to /about or /team so LLMs can identify the entity behind the site.

  • ⚠️ Create a robots.txt Even a minimal robots.txt is better than none. Always reference your Sitemap and explicitly address AI bots.

  • ⚠️ Add lists or comparison tables Answer engines lift bulleted lists, numbered steps, and tables verbatim. Add at least 2 snippet-ready blocks to the homepage.

  • ⚠️ Phrase a heading as a user question Use headings like 'How does pricing work?' or 'Who is this for?' — they map directly to conversational AI queries.

  • ⚠️ Publish a date signal Add <time datetime="2026-05-17"> or <meta property="article:published_time">. AI ranking heavily weights freshness.

  • ⚠️ Generate /llms-full.txt for RAG pipelines llms-full.txt is a concatenation of the full markdown text of every resource listed in llms.txt. Generate it statically at build time and serve it from your root:

    # Your Brand — Full Content

## Getting Started
<full markdown content of /docs/start>

## API Reference
<full markdown content of /docs/api>

    Large-context models can ingest your entire knowledge base in a single request, dramatically improving recall and citation accuracy.

  • ⚠️ Add outbound links to authoritative sources Link to Wikipedia, .gov or .edu resources, peer-reviewed studies, or major news outlets when making factual claims. Generative AI systems treat pages that cite authoritative sources as more trustworthy, which raises citation likelihood.

    Examples: statistics from Statista or Census.gov, definitions from Wikipedia, research from nature.com or pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov.

  • ⚠️ Add a canonical link Prevents dup-content drift and tells AI crawlers which URL is authoritative.

    <link rel="canonical" href="https://yoursite.com/" />

  • ⚠️ Complete Open Graph tags AI bots use OG for fast disambiguation. Add all four:

    <meta property="og:title" content="Your Page Title" />
<meta property="og:description" content="50–160 char description of this page." />
<meta property="og:image" content="https://yoursite.com/og-image.jpg" />
<meta property="og:url" content="https://yoursite.com/" />
<meta property="og:type" content="website" />
<meta property="og:site_name" content="YourSite" />

  • ⚠️ Add Twitter Card meta tags Used by social platforms and AI agents for richer previews.

    <meta name="twitter:card" content="summary_large_image" />
<meta name="twitter:title" content="Your Page Title" />
<meta name="twitter:description" content="50–160 char description." />
<meta name="twitter:image" content="https://yoursite.com/og-image.jpg" />

  • ⚠️ Add more substantive homepage content AI models need 300+ words of visible body text to summarize and recommend a site. Add a value-prop paragraph, a short FAQ, and a 'how it works' section.

  • ⚠️ Use modern image formats Serve WebP or AVIF for hero/above-the-fold images. Keep legacy PNG/JPG only as fallbacks.

  • ⚠️ Set width/height on images Explicit dimensions prevent Cumulative Layout Shift and help AI extractors reserve space correctly.

  • ⚠️ Add /skill.md Describe what an agent can do with your site (e.g., 'Search docs', 'Look up pricing'). Useful for agentic flows.

  • ⚠️ Publish /.well-known/security.txt A security contact builds trust with crawlers and researchers. Minimal example:

    Contact: mailto:security@yourdomain.com
Expires: 2027-01-01T00:00:00.000Z
Preferred-Languages: en

  • ⚠️ State your audience explicitly Use phrases like 'Built for B2B SaaS marketing teams' on the homepage and About page.

  • ⚠️ Enable HSTS Add Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains once you're confident every subdomain is https-ready.

  • ⚠️ Define a Content-Security-Policy Start with Content-Security-Policy-Report-Only to learn safe sources, then enforce. Cuts XSS blast radius.

  • ⚠️ Declare an author byline Add <meta name="author" content="Name"> or a visible byline with rel="author". Combine with Person JSON-LD for E-E-A-T.

  • ⚠️ Add a favicon Add <link rel="icon" href="/favicon.ico"> and an apple-touch-icon so AI citation cards show your brand mark.

  • ⚠️ Use srcset/sizes for responsive images Serve appropriately-sized images per viewport — saves bytes on mobile crawls.

  • ⚠️ Add X-Frame-Options X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN (or CSP frame-ancestors) blocks clickjacking via iframe embeds.

  • ⚠️ Set a Permissions-Policy Restrict browser features you don't use, e.g. Permissions-Policy: camera=(), microphone=(), geolocation=().
