The score measures how well machines can read and parse the site. It is not a ranking, and it does not predict traffic or whether any AI tool will cite the site.
Sorted by impact, then effort. Small effort means a single file or setting.
JSON-LD tells machines what a page is about: your business, product, article, or FAQ.
How to fix: Add a JSON-LD block with the type that fits each page (Organization or LocalBusiness on the homepage, Product, Article, FAQPage, BreadcrumbList).
robots.txt tested per agent and path under RFC 9309 rules. Each cell shows the rule that decided it.
