theshoecompany.ca — Global SEODiff Score 43/100

theshoecompany.ca
📊

theshoecompany.ca struggles with AI visibility, recording a critical ACRI of 10/100 — AI crawlers face significant hurdles extracting its content. Compared to other infrastructure sites (avg score: 57), theshoecompany.ca is trailing the benchmark, indicating room for competitive improvement. A ghost ratio of 50% signals a rendering gap: a significant portion of page content requires JavaScript execution to become visible. The bloated 50.0× token ratio highlights an urgent need to clean up non-content markup, scripts, and navigation clutter. The site includes 2 schema blocks, providing adequate structured data for basic entity recognition. All major AI bot user-agents (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, CCBot, Google-Extended) are permitted by robots.txt, ensuring broad AI crawler access.

🚨

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: 50% of your page token budget is trapped in non-rendered regions (JavaScript-dependent content invisible to AI crawlers). Combined with 84.2x 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.

Fix Client-Side Rendering
High Impact ⏱ 2–4 hrs
50% of your content is invisible to AI crawlers. Wrap critical content in server-rendered HTML using Angular (enable Angular Universal for SSR).
html
<!-- Ensure main content is in the initial HTML response -->
<main id="content">
  <!-- Server-rendered content goes here -->
  <h1>Theshoecompany</h1>
  <p>Your key content should render without JavaScript.</p>
  <!-- Move <script> tags to the bottom of <body> -->
</main>

<!-- In your framework config, enable SSR/prerendering: -->
<!-- Angular (enable Angular Universal for SSR) -->
Reduce Token Bloat
Medium Impact ⏱ 1–2 hrs
Only 1% of your HTML is useful content. AI crawlers waste context window tokens on bloat.
html
<!-- Move inline CSS to external stylesheets -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/main.css">

<!-- Move inline scripts to external files with defer -->
<script src="/js/app.js" defer></script>

<!-- Remove duplicate navigation blocks -->
<!-- Keep only ONE <nav> in the <header> -->

<!-- Ensure <main> wraps your primary content -->
