# SeoGauge

> SeoGauge assesses website readiness for search engines (SEO), direct answers (AEO), and AI discovery (GEO). Free reports show SEO/AEO scores and basic findings. Pro's regular price is $10 USD per month; 25% off brings the payable price to $7.50 USD per month. Pro unlocks GEO, priority fixes, detailed AI insights, and report comparisons. Scores do not measure actual search rankings or consumer AI citations.

Key facts:
- 35 scored page checks: 19 SEO, 7 AEO, 9 GEO (scoring version 5). The Pro overall page score averages all three categories; the free overview averages SEO and AEO only.
- Score bands: 75+ Strong, 50–74 Needs work, below 50 Weak.
- 7 AI crawlers are checked in robots.txt: GPTBot, OAI-SearchBot, ChatGPT-User, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Google-Extended, CCBot.
- Page speed uses Google PageSpeed Insights; the LCP check passes at 2.5 seconds or less.
- Free: 5 scans per day without an account, 20 per day with Google sign-in. Results are cached for 24 hours.
- Pro: GEO findings, all high-severity fixes and the three highest-impact fixes, AI probes, page breakdowns, comparisons, and Search Console opportunities. Monthly billing through Dodo Payments; daily scan allowances still apply.
