GEO: Content Score

Introducing GEO Content Score

A page-level score that tells you exactly how likely your content is to be cited by AI platforms — and what to fix to improve it.


What's New

Your content now has a citability score

Every page you open in Content Optimization (inside Action Center) now displays a GEO Content Score — a 0–100 gauge that measures how well your content aligns with the signals AI platforms use when selecting sources to cite.

Higher scores mean fewer issues and stronger alignment with how models like ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, and Perplexity decide what to reference. Think of it as your page's AI-readiness rating.


Key Capabilities

📊 Page-Level Scoring (0–100) Each page gets its own score based on its unique content and structure. The color-coded gauge gives you an instant read on where things stand.

🔍 Signal-by-Signal Breakdown The score panel lists every signal category with a count of detected issues. Click any category to see the specific issue, why it matters, and the recommended fix.

⚡ One-Click Optimize Hit Optimize and Writesonic's AI engine applies recommended fixes directly in the editor — add key takeaways, improve structure, enhance authority signals. You keep full editorial control.

🚫 Ignore & Recalculate Not every recommendation applies to every page. Dismiss irrelevant issues with Ignore this, and the score recalculates automatically.


What the Score Evaluates

The GEO Content Score evaluates your content across key dimensions that AI platforms weigh when deciding what to cite.

🧩 Schema Markup Structure

Checks for the presence and correctness of structured data — Article, FAQ, Product, HowTo schema, and more. Proper schema helps AI models understand the type and context of your content, making it significantly more likely to be parsed and cited.

📌 Key Takeaways Content

Detects whether the page includes clearly defined summaries, key takeaways, or TL;DR sections. AI models prioritize content that provides concise, extractable answers they can pull directly into generated responses.

🛡️ Authority Signal Credibility

Evaluates whether the content has clear author credentials — a named author with a role, title, or verifiable expertise — rather than a generic brand attribution. This is a key E-E-A-T signal that directly impacts AI citation likelihood.

Note: The number next to each signal (e.g., Schema Markup: 4) is the issue count — not a sub-score. A count of 0 means no issues detected.
