What the assessment reads

Eight pillars, one score.

Your homepage and up to eight other public pages, read like a search engine or an AI crawler reads them. That evidence alone scores the eight pillars, and the weights add up to one number out of 100.

How your read happens

Two minutes, four steps.

  1. Read your live site

    The assessment fetches your homepage and up to eight public pages the way a crawler does, and logs every reading as it goes: response, headers, metadata, structured data.

    9. Page mapped/blog/release-notes/
  2. Check what the archive holds

    At the same time it reads the Wayback Machine's public index for your domain, so you see how much of your site survives there. If your site is down, this is the part that still answers.

  3. Score eight pillars

    Each pillar gets a score from 0 to 100 from the evidence alone, then the weights add up to one number. Two weak pillars usually explain most of a low total.

  4. Get what to fix first

    Your report closes with the changes that raise your score most, each tied to the evidence behind it. Share the unlisted link with whoever does the work.

    Priority actionsSample
    1. 01

      Send a Content-Security-Policy and HSTS on every response; security is the pillar holding your score down most.

    2. 02

      Render the product pages on the server, so crawlers and AI assistants see the copy without running scripts.

    3. 03

      Add Organization and Product structured data to the templates that have none.

Start where you are

Start from the question you have.

Each page runs the same assessment and explains one thing you might be asking about your site.

Questions, answered.

01Is the assessment free?

Yes. It costs nothing and takes about two minutes. To send you the report link once, and only once, it asks for a work email. The report sits at an unlisted address (so nobody stumbles on it), and you can share that link with anyone you choose.

02Does it work on a site behind a login or a staging password?

No. It reads public pages only, the way a search engine does, so protected pages return nothing, and your report says so instead of guessing. So run it on the public site you want measured.

03How often should you run it?

Quarterly. Run it again after any release that touches templates, redirects, plugins or hosting. Keep the report links, because two readings three months apart tell you more than either alone. A single score is a snapshot. A pair is a trend you can act on.

04Who built it?

Gautam Khorana built the assessment and runs it from London. He has spent 12+ years on thousands of websites of every shape and size, from one-page brochures to directories. The about page has the detail, and the detail is where he'd rather you looked.
