Findings, biggest first

Each finding shows the points it would add to the score once fixed.

  1. Finding 1

    Put your words in the HTML

    Content, needs a developer

    A crawler that runs no JavaScript found under 400 characters of text. Whatever your page says after scripts run, it doesn't say to them.

    +18points
  2. Finding 2

    Stop serving an empty app shell

    Content, needs a developer

    The page is a JavaScript shell: scripts plus almost no text. To most AI crawlers it looks blank.

    +10points
  3. Finding 3

    Add real copy to the page

    Content, about 1 hour

    Readable text is a tiny share of the page's code, or there's very little of it. Crawlers summarise words, not markup.

    +4points
  4. Finding 4

    Give the page an h1 heading

    Content, about 5 min

    One clear main heading tells a crawler what the page is about.

    +4points
  5. Finding 5

    Use semantic HTML tags

    Content, about 1 hour

    Tags like main, nav, article and footer show which part is content and which is chrome.

    +4points
  6. Finding 6

    Keep sitemap dates fresh

    Discovery, about 1 hour

    No lastmod date in the last 90 days, so crawlers can't tell what changed and may not come back.

    +4points
  7. Finding 7

    Offer a machine-readable interface

    Interface, needs a developer

    A valid /openapi.json or /llms-full.txt lets AI agents use your product or read your docs in full, not just your homepage.

    +4points
  8. Finding 8

    Add a canonical link

    Structure, about 5 min

    Tells crawlers which URL is the real one when the same page is reachable at several.

    +2points
  9. Finding 9

    Mirror llms.txt at /.well-known/llms.txt

    Access, about 5 min

    Some tools look in the .well-known folder instead. A copy of the same file covers both.

    +1points
