What is a GEO score?

A GEO score estimates how ready a page is for AI systems to crawl, understand, and cite — across access, structure, schema, content, and trust.

A GEO score is a 0–100 readiness estimate for Generative Engine Optimization: how well a URL and its related files (robots.txt, llms.txt, sitemap) support AI crawl access, clear structure, structured data, answer-ready content, and trust signals that help assistants cite you.

Why this exists

People ask ChatGPT “Am I ready to be cited?” A single score turns a vague goal into a checklist of fixable gaps — similar in spirit to a performance or SEO health score, but tuned for AI retrieval and citation eligibility.

What omiGeo’s score includes

  • Crawl & AI access — bots, robots policy, discovery files
  • Page structure — titles, headings, canonicals, readable HTML
  • Structured data — JSON-LD such as Organization / FAQ
  • Answer-ready content — citeable density, FAQs, clarity
  • Trust — author/entity/freshness style signals

How to use a GEO score

  1. Scan the homepage, then key FAQ or product URLs.
  2. Fix critical crawl blocks first (they cap everything else).
  3. Improve answer-first copy and schema next.
  4. Re-scan after changes; track the grade over time.

Common mistakes

  • Treating the score as a guaranteed citation ranking
  • Ignoring bots while polishing prose
  • Only scanning once and never retesting

FAQ

Is a GEO score the same as an SEO score? No. They overlap, but GEO emphasizes AI crawlers, llms.txt, and quote-ready passages.

What is a good score? Higher is better; focus on clearing critical findings even if the number is mid-range.
