fws.gov — Global SEODiff Score 66/100

fws.gov
📊

With a solid 74/100 ACRI, fws.gov is well-positioned for AI search — better than 78% of sites in the Radar. Compared to other government sites (avg score: 58), fws.gov performs above the benchmark, suggesting strong competitive positioning in AI search. Content is delivered server-side, meaning bots and AI agents can parse the full page without executing JavaScript. A 14.5× bloat ratio is typical for sites in this tech tier — not wasteful, but streamlining could further boost extractability. Only 1 schema block is present — adding Organization, WebSite, and Breadcrumb schemas would significantly improve structured data coverage. All major AI bot user-agents (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, CCBot, Google-Extended) are permitted by robots.txt, ensuring broad AI crawler access.

💡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.

Only 6% of your HTML is useful content. AI crawlers waste context window tokens on bloat.
