eia.gov — Global SEODiff Score 66/100

eia.gov
📊

At 71/100, the ACRI for eia.gov indicates strong fundamentals in AI extractability, surpassing the majority of indexed sites. Compared to other government sites (avg score: 57), eia.gov performs above the benchmark, suggesting strong competitive positioning in AI search. Its server-rendered architecture ensures AI crawlers receive complete HTML on first request, a key advantage for extractability. A tight 3.6× token bloat ratio reflects disciplined markup: minimal noise between the crawler and the content it needs. Zero schema blocks puts this site at a disadvantage in knowledge graph and AI-answer pipelines that rely on explicit structured data. Robots.txt grants unrestricted access to the key AI user-agents, which is the strongest starting position for AI visibility.

💡Organization schema missing. AI models cannot identify your brand entity. Without it, your brand won't appear in Knowledge Panels or be associated with your content.
💡Product / Service schema missing. AI models don't know this is a SaaS product. Add Product or SoftwareApplication schema so AI understands what you offer and can surface pricing/features.
💡BreadcrumbList schema missing. AI cannot understand your site hierarchy or how pages relate to each other.
💡FAQ schema missing. Adding FAQPage schema lets AI models directly extract Q&A pairs for Featured Snippets and chatbot answers.
💡WebSite schema missing. Add WebSite + SearchAction so Google can generate a Sitelinks Search Box for your brand in AI results.
