A GEO score checker analyses your website against the criteria AI engines use when recommending businesses. For Singapore SMEs, it's one of the fastest ways to identify AI visibility gaps before your competitors do. Here's how to get the most from the tool.

Step 1: Enter Your Website and Category

Go to the free GEO Score Checker and enter your business website URL. You'll also enter your business name and select your category from the dropdown (e.g. Accounting, Legal, Renovation, Healthcare).

The category matters because the checker benchmarks your score against Singapore businesses in the same sector. A law firm is evaluated differently from an aircon servicing company — the questions customers ask AI are different, and so are the citation sources that matter.

Hit "Check My GEO Score" and the analysis begins. It typically completes in 25–40 seconds.

Step 2: Read Your Dimension Scores

Your results show five dimension scores alongside your overall GEO Score:

Direct-Answer Content

Low score? Your service pages need restructuring with Q&A format and FAQ sections.

Entity Clarity

Low score? Your business identity signals are inconsistent or incomplete online.

Schema Markup

Low score? You're missing structured data that helps AI engines extract information.

Citation Worthiness

Low score? You have few or low-quality third-party mentions.

Local Authority

Low score? Your content lacks Singapore-specific context and local signals.

Focus first on the dimensions with the lowest scores — these represent your biggest opportunity for improvement.

Step 3: Unlock the Full Report

The free score shows your overall grade and dimension breakdown. To access the full report — including specific issues found on your website, competitor comparison data, and a prioritised action plan — click "Unlock Full Report" and enter your name, email, and phone number.

The full report is free. The email capture allows us to send you a PDF copy and follow up if there are things we can help with.

Step 4: Prioritise Your Fixes

Your action plan lists recommended fixes ranked by impact. Here's a general priority framework:

  1. Schema markup — usually the highest ROI fix. Can be done in a day with developer help.
  2. Entity consistency — audit and standardise your business name, address, phone across all online profiles.
  3. Direct-answer content — rewrite 2–3 key service pages with FAQ structure and direct question/answer format.
  4. Citation building — submit to 5–10 Singapore-specific directories and request coverage from industry publications.
  5. Local authority content — add Singapore-specific context to service pages and blog posts.

Step 5: Re-Check in 4–6 Weeks

After implementing fixes, run the GEO Score Checker again. Most businesses see a meaningful score improvement within 4–6 weeks of addressing schema and entity issues. Content improvements take slightly longer — typically 6–8 weeks for AI engines to incorporate updated pages.

Treat your GEO Score as a living benchmark — not a one-time check. Running it quarterly gives you a clear picture of whether your AI visibility is improving over time.
