Overview

Run a full SEO and Answer Engine Optimization audit combining traditional search ranking factors with AI-era optimization for featured snippets, knowledge panels, and conversational AI responses.

3. Technical SEO checks:
   • Title tag: length (50-60 chars), keyword placement, uniqueness.
   • Meta description: length (150-160 chars), CTA present, unique.
   • H1: single, contains primary keyword.

   • Page speed: estimate load time from content size and scripts.
   • Mobile: check viewport meta tag, responsive indicators.
   • Canonical tag: present and self-referencing.
   • Schema markup: identify types present (Article, FAQ, Product, etc.).
4. Content quality checks:
   • Word count vs topic expectations.
   • Keyword density and semantic coverage.
   • Readability score (Flesch-Kincaid).
   • Internal linking: minimum 3 internal links.
   • Image alt text: all images have descriptive alt attributes.
5. AEO checks:
   • FAQ schema: eligible questions identified.
   • Direct answer format: does content answer the primary question in first 100 words?
   • Structured data completeness: required fields present.
   • Entity coverage: mentions key entities related to topic.
6. Generate prioritized issue list: Critical, High, Medium, Low.
7. Return audit report with scores, issues, and specific fix recommendations.
