🗺️ THIS IS A GOOGLE MAPS RANKING SIMULATION
This grid simulates how your business ranks across geographic zones — the same way Google Maps decides who appears in the local 3-pack. Each cell = a real location point radiating from the business address.
The Visibility Matrix is a 5×5 signal grid that simulates how AI search engines rank your business across different signal categories and geographic zones around your location.
What Each Number Means
Each cell shows a rank position (1–15+) — where your site appears in AI search results for that signal category at that geographic point. Lower is better.
1–3 = Top ranked (strong signal)
4–7 = Mid-range (needs improvement)
8+ = Low ranked (blind spot)
Signal Categories
Each grid cell maps to one of these AI visibility signals:
Schema — Structured data (JSON-LD) that tells AI who you are
Bot Access — Whether GPTBot and ClaudeBot can crawl your site
FAQ — FAQ structured data that AI references in answers
Speed — Page load performance (faster = more AI-friendly)
SEO — Traditional SEO signals (title, meta, H1, sitemap)
llms.txt — AI-specific descriptor file for LLM crawlers
Geo / areaServed — Local presence and geographic targeting signals
hasMap / Sitemap — Map embeds and XML sitemap presence
Geographic Zones
The 5×5 grid represents points radiating from your business center outward — hover over any cell to see its zone (e.g., "Center", "NW-Inner", "SE-Outer"). The center cell is your core location and outer cells show how your visibility drops with distance.
How to Read Your Results
Look for patterns: red clusters reveal blind spots where AI can't find you. Green clusters show where your signals are strongest.
Your Action Map — What to Fix by Color
Find your weakest (red) signal categories below, then follow the fix steps:
🔴 Red in Schema (rank 8+)
Your JSON-LD structured data is missing or incomplete. Fix: Add LocalBusiness, FAQ, and Product schema to your homepage. Use our Entity Correction tool in the "No, fix this" button above to auto-generate your schema files.
🔴 Red in Bot Access
GPTBot or ClaudeBot is blocked from crawling your site. Fix: Check your robots.txt file — remove any Disallow: / rules for GPTBot, ClaudeBot, and Googlebot. Also add an llms.txt file to your root.
🔴 Red in FAQ
No FAQ structured data found. Fix: Add an FAQPage schema with 5–10 questions your customers actually ask. AI engines extract FAQ answers verbatim — this is the fastest way to appear in AI-generated responses.
🔴 Red in Speed
Your page loads too slowly (over 5 seconds). Fix: Compress images to WebP, enable browser caching, remove unused JavaScript, and consider a CDN. Target under 3 seconds for optimal AI indexing.
🔴 Red in SEO
Basic SEO signals are missing. Fix: Ensure your page has a unique <title>, a meta description, an H1 heading, a viewport meta tag, and an XML sitemap.xml.
🟡 Amber cells (rank 4–7)
You're present but not competitive. These are quick wins — small improvements here can push you into the green zone. Prioritize these after fixing all reds.
🟢 Green cells (rank 1–3)
These signals are strong — AI can find you here. Maintain them and focus your energy on turning reds and ambers green.
