Scan the top-trafficked pages

Methodology
How we score each brand
02
48 structural signals
Every page is scored on the same 48 checks — content (BLUF, direct-answer density, entity coverage), technical (robots.txt, llms.txt, SSR, canonical), schema (FAQPage, Organization, breadcrumbs), and structure (heading hierarchy, table of contents, lists). Scores are weighted by the citation-impact each check measurably has across the 5 buyer-simulation models.
03
Aggregate to a brand score
The brand score is the median page score with a small floor effect for pages that block AI crawlers (those count as zero, not as null — being blocked is a result).
04
Publish + diff month-over-month
Edition refreshes ship the first week of each quarter. Brands that gained ≥3 points get the green ▲ marker; ≥3 lost gets the red ▼. We name the strongest signal each brand is doing well (so other readers know what to copy) and the failing checks dragging it down.
