3. Homepage Audit
- ⚠️ Missing meta description Add a
<meta name="description">to control the snippet AI/SERP show. - ⚠️ Very short
<title>Title is only 14 chars. - ⚠️ Missing canonical link Add
<link rel="canonical" href="https://your-domain">to prevent dup-content confusion. - ❌ Open Graph: missing title, description, image
- ✅ Homepage fetched successfully HTTP 200 · 528 bytes · 21ms
- ✅ Single H1 Example Domain
- ✅ Critical content is server-rendered Raw and rendered text are within 45% of each other.
4. 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.
5. robots.txt and sitemap.xml Audit
- ❌ sitemap.xml not found 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.
6. 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.
7. Positioning Clarity
- ❌ No discoverable CTA Add a clearly-labeled Contact, Demo, or Sign up link to the nav or hero.
- ⚠️ No clear About/Team link Add an About or Team link in the nav or footer so LLMs can identify the company.
- ⚠️ No pricing/plans link found AI summaries commonly include pricing. Add a /pricing page even if pricing is custom.
- ⚠️ 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 Example Domain

- ❌ 11 data point(s) could not be found from public pages · Pricing · Customer logos · Social proof · Recent launches · Blog post activity · New hires · Positioning · Executive team · Product/service descriptions · Case studies or testimonials · Contact/demo/signup paths
9. Recommended Fixes
- ⚠️ Add a discoverable CTA Place 'Contact sales' or 'Start free' in the top-right of the nav. LLMs cite the visible label.
- ⚠️ 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 a meta description 150–160 chars. Repeat your core value prop in plain language; this often becomes the AI snippet.
- ⚠️ 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.
- ⚠️ Add a /pricing page Even contact-us pricing benefits from a /pricing page that LLMs can link to in answers.
- ⚠️ Create a robots.txt Even a minimal robots.txt is better than none. Always reference your Sitemap and explicitly address AI bots.
- ⚠️ Set a meaningful
<title>50–60 chars. Lead with the brand or product, then the value prop: 'CrawlProof — AEO audits for AI crawlers.' - ⚠️ Add a canonical link
<link rel="canonical" href="https://yoursite.com/">on every page to prevent dup-content drift. - ⚠️ Complete Open Graph tags Set og:title, og:description, og:image. AI bots also use OG for fast disambiguation.
- ⚠️ Add /skill.md Describe what an agent can do with your site (e.g., 'Search docs', 'Look up pricing'). Useful for agentic flows.
- ⚠️ State your audience explicitly Use phrases like 'Built for B2B SaaS marketing teams' on the homepage and About page.
