AIO Visibility Analysis

Your restaurant is largely invisible
to AI-powered search.

Search changed in 2024. Across Google, Bing, and standalone AI tools, a growing share of queries now receive a generated answer before the user sees a list of websites. For restaurant searches, this matters directly: when someone asks an AI engine to recommend a restaurant in Sheffield, it picks from sources it can confidently cite. These engines do not rank pages. They cite authorities. To be cited, your site needs to speak the language of AI: structured data, clear entity signals, and explicit bot permissions. Right now, yours does not.

AI-Powered Search (ChatGPT, Perplexity, AI Overviews)
Traditional Search (10 blue links)

How each AI engine sees your website right now
Google AI OverviewsPARTIAL
Google-Extended is accidentally blocked in your robots.txt. This is the crawler that powers AI Overviews and Gemini citations.
Every "best restaurant Sheffield" AI query bypasses your site entirely.
ChatGPT / Bing AIPARTIAL
OAI-SearchBot is permitted and crawling. However no structured entity data (Restaurant schema) is found. Citations therefore lack confidence.
Visible, but unnamed sources rank ahead of you.
Perplexity AIBLOCKED
PerplexityBot is blocked in robots.txt. Perplexity is the fastest-growing AI search engine for local business queries in the UK.
Zero chance of appearing in Perplexity results.
Claude / AnthropicNOT CONFIGURED
ClaudeBot is not referenced in robots.txt. No explicit permission given. Crawling is technically allowed but uncontrolled.
Should be explicitly permitted for AI search benefits.
Google SearchACTIVE
Googlebot is fully permitted. Core pages are indexed. On-page issues with title tags and missing schema are flagged separately.
Traditional search: working. AI layer: the gap.
How AI engines evaluate your content: what's missing
Structured Data
Restaurant, LocalBusiness, FAQPage, BreadcrumbList schema tell AI what your business is, where it is, what it serves, and when it's open.
Critical: missing
Bot Permissions
Your robots.txt controls which AI crawlers can read your site. Right now Google-Extended and Perplexity are blocked. One fix required.
Critical: mis-configured
FAQ & Q&A Content
AI agents quote structured FAQ content verbatim. "What are your opening hours?", "Do you take bookings?" are searched thousands of times monthly.
Warning: not present
Page Speed & Core Web Vitals

Your site loads slowly on mobile.
AI engines notice.

Google uses page speed as a ranking factor. AI engines also prioritise sources they can retrieve quickly. Your desktop score is acceptable. Your mobile score of 41 means roughly half your visitors are leaving before the page fully loads.

Full Findings

What we found on
your website.

Critical Issues: Fix Immediately
Title tag starts with "Welcome to": wastes the most valuable SEO real-estate on your site Critical
Google truncates titles at ~60 characters. Yours reads "Welcome to the Restaurant - Welc…". The keyword phrase that should hook clicks is cut off. Suggested fix: My Sheffield Restaurant | Authentic Italian Dining Since 1998
Google-Extended blocked in robots.txt: prevents Google AI Overviews from citing your restaurant Critical
Google-Extended controls Google's AI Overview panel (formerly SGE) and Gemini citations. Any query like "best Italian restaurant Sheffield?" will never surface your site in Google's AI answer. This is a single line change in robots.txt. Takes under 5 minutes.
No Restaurant or LocalBusiness schema: AI agents cannot verify your business as a trusted source Critical
Only basic Yoast defaults are present. No Restaurant JSON-LD with address, telephone, openingHours, servesCuisine, menu, or priceRange. This is how Google and AI engines confirm your site is the authoritative source, not a third-party aggregator result.
Warnings: Fix Within 30 Days
8 images missing alt text Warning
Missing alt text fails WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility and loses ranking signals. Google Images drives significant traffic for food photography. Each blank alt="" is a missed keyword placement.
Meta descriptions read as About Us paragraphs, not click hooks Warning
A good meta description sells the click. Example: "Award-winning Italian restaurant in Sheffield. Handmade pasta, wood-fired pizza. Book a table online." Specific, keyword-rich, action-oriented.
No FAQPage schema: AI agents cannot cite your answers to common questions Warning
Questions like "does the restaurant take bookings?", "what are the opening hours?" are searched thousands of times monthly. AI agents prioritise structured FAQ content when constructing answers.
What's Working Well
HTTPS, canonical tags, clean URL structure Pass
All pages served over HTTPS. Self-referencing canonicals on all pages. No duplicate content risk. URLs are descriptive and fully crawlable.
Open Graph and Twitter Card tags on all pages Pass
Correct og:title, og:description, og:image and twitter:card. Social sharing will render correctly with images and descriptions across all platforms.

Priority Roadmap

Five fixes. Ranked by impact.

Two of these take under 30 minutes and will immediately restore AI search visibility. Here is the exact order to tackle them.

Impact vs Effort
QUICK WINS STRATEGIC LOW PRIORITY AVOID ← LOW EFFORT · HIGH EFFORT → 1 2 5 3 4
1
Allow Google-Extended in robots.txt
Remove Google-Extended from your Disallow list. Immediately restores eligibility for Google AI Overview citations. Takes 5 minutes, 2–4 weeks for Google to re-crawl.
5-minute fix
2
Rewrite homepage title tag and H1
Replace "Welcome to…" with a keyword-led, location-specific title. Immediate ranking signal improvement for all restaurant and location searches.
30-minute fix
3
Add Restaurant JSON-LD schema
Implement full Restaurant schema: name, address, telephone, openingHours, servesCuisine, menu, priceRange, sameAs links. Single fix that improves entity authority across all AI engines simultaneously.
Half-day dev task
4
Add FAQ sections + FAQPage schema
4–6 structured Q&As covering booking, opening hours, dietary options, parking. Wrap in FAQPage JSON-LD. Most effective AIO fix: AI agents quote structured FAQ content verbatim.
2–3 day content task
5
Fix alt text on 8 homepage images
Descriptive, keyword-rich alt text on every image. Each blank alt="" is a missed Google Images ranking opportunity and an accessibility failure.
2-hour fix
