abc7news.com — Global SEODiff Score 46/100

abc7news.com
📊

The AI-Readiness score for abc7news.com is 52/100 — a middling result that leaves significant room to climb the Radar rankings. Within the education vertical, this places abc7news.com below the industry average of 57 —, indicating room for competitive improvement. The rendering approach is hybrid, with a moderate ghost ratio of 30% — most content is accessible without JS, though some elements are client-rendered. The bloated 50.0× token ratio highlights an urgent need to clean up non-content markup, scripts, and navigation clutter. Minimal structured data (1 block) limits the site's ability to communicate entity relationships to AI systems. Most AI crawlers are blocked by robots.txt, severely restricting how AI-powered search engines can index and surface this content.

🚨

Hallucination Risk

Research

Is AI lying about your brand? This panel measures how likely LLMs are to hallucinate facts when extracting information from your page.

👻
Shadow Content Detected: 30% of your page token budget is trapped in non-rendered regions (JavaScript-dependent content invisible to AI crawlers). Combined with 66.6x token bloat, AI models are using most of their context window on noise instead of your real content. This dramatically increases hallucination probability — models fill the gap with made-up facts.

💡Your HTML is 567.0 KB, but only 8.5 KB is text. 1% useful / 99% bloat. AI crawlers have limited context windows (e.g. 128k tokens). This level of bloat (50×+) risks context-window truncation by ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini. Reduce inline scripts, CSS, hydration payloads, and tracking code.
💡Only 5% of images have alt text. Add descriptive alt attributes so multimodal AI (ChatGPT Vision) can understand your images.
