smartnews.com — Global SEODiff Score 41/100

smartnews.com
📊

The AI-Readiness score for smartnews.com is 62/100 — a middling result that leaves significant room to climb the Radar rankings. In the infrastructure sector, smartnews.com outperforms the average (58), 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. The bloated 50.0× token ratio highlights an urgent need to clean up non-content markup, scripts, and navigation clutter. No structured data was detected, which means AI systems must infer all entities and relationships from raw HTML alone. 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.
