AEO Score Report
What We Found
We analysed the website askshepherd.ai using 15 queries to evaluate its AI Engine Optimisation (AEO) performance. The overall score is **30/100**, indicating a **Critical** grade, with no queries retrieving citation-ready content. The most pressing issue is the lack of relevant content for all tested queries; we recommend developing targeted, high-quality content specifically addressing the identified gaps, such as "best tools for integrate communications and documentation in one platform" and "top resources for linking related tasks and issues across diverse tools."
- Your pages are quite short — AI tools tend to cite content that goes into depth on a topic. Consider expanding your key pages with more detail.
- Your homepage doesn't clearly explain what Askshepherd does near the top. Add a simple sentence like 'Askshepherd is a [what you do]' or 'Askshepherd helps [audience] do X' — this is one of the strongest signals for getting cited by AI.
- Your content has very few specific numbers or stats. AI tools tend to cite concrete claims over general ones — try including figures like percentages, counts, or comparisons where relevant.
- No queries reach citation-ready status — combined score below threshold across all 15 queries
- No matching content for 15 queries: "best tools for integrate communications and documentation in one platform", "best tools for manage firmware and hardware changes collaboratively", "top resources for linking related tasks and issues across diverse tools" and more
- Brand invisible in top chunks for 8 queries — content retrieved but brand not mentioned
- Your blog or article pages aren't marked up for search engines — this is a quick win for Google visibility
- Your organisation details aren't defined for search engines — add your company name, website, and a short description
