SEO Strater — LLM Readiness Checklist & AEO Audit Tools

SEO Strater is an Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) toolkit that audits web pages against 20 automated checks so they rank in ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity, and Claude — not just classic search.

What is the LLM Readiness Checklist?

The LLM Readiness Checklist scores any page or HTML draft against the checks large-language-model crawlers actually use when deciding which sources to cite. Paste HTML, fetch a URL, or run the SEO Strater Chrome extension on the page you're viewing.

The 20 LLM Readiness checks

  1. Semantic Entity Coverage — related entities and subtopics on the page.
  2. E-E-A-T signals — author, dates, citations, original media.
  3. Q&A Structure — question headings, direct first-sentence answers, FAQ schema.
  4. Schema markup — JSON-LD types present (Organization, Article, Product, FAQ, BreadcrumbList).
  5. Brand mention frequency — how often the brand appears on-page.
  6. Freshness — recent publish or update dates.
  7. Conversational tone — short sentences, low hedging.
  8. Technical accessibility — single H1, indexable, sufficient content.
  9. Internal & external linking — link diversity and authority.
  10. Marketing-fluff density — generic copy penalty.
  11. Entity Knowledge Graph — Organization schema with sameAs, founders, products.
  12. Topical Authority — guides, comparisons, FAQs, use cases, definitions.
  13. Retrieval Chunk Quality — self-contained sections, short paragraphs, clear headings.
  14. Citation Worthiness — quotable stats, dates, customer counts, countries served, funding.
  15. Competitive Intent Match — versus, best-of, alternatives, how-it-works coverage.
  16. External Authority Signals — Crunchbase, G2, Capterra, Forbes, LinkedIn references.
  17. Content Uniqueness — unique, quantified, brand-specific statements.
  18. Programmatic Crawlability — sitemap, canonical, clean HTML, SSR/pre-render, fast rendering.
  19. Brand-Query Dominance — coverage of "What is", pricing, reviews, alternatives, features.
  20. Robots & Sitemap Validation — robots.txt allows indexing and references sitemap.xml.
