zscaler.com — Global SEODiff Score 67/100

zscaler.com
📊

With a solid 71/100 ACRI, zscaler.com is well-positioned for AI search — better than 70% of sites in the Radar. Within the government vertical, this places zscaler.com above the industry average of 58 —, suggesting strong competitive positioning in AI search. The low ghost ratio (5%) confirms that what crawlers see matches what users see — a hallmark of strong SSR implementation. The bloated 45.9× token ratio highlights an urgent need to clean up non-content markup, scripts, and navigation clutter. Rich structured data (44 schema blocks) gives AI systems strong semantic signals for entity recognition and knowledge graph inclusion. All major AI bot user-agents (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, CCBot, Google-Extended) are permitted by robots.txt, ensuring broad AI crawler access.
