Good questions

About the AEO tester.

What does the AEO tester check?

It checks how ready a page is for AI search: whether AI crawlers are allowed in, whether your content is readable without JavaScript, and whether you have the structured data, FAQ content and llms.txt file that help ChatGPT, Claude and Perplexity understand and cite you.

Does a high score mean ChatGPT will recommend me?

No tool can promise that. A high score means the technical foundations are in place. Being recommended also depends on your reputation, reviews and mentions on sites AI tools trust.
