Customer Select

Borderline visible. AI bots can crawl Customer Select, but the structured-data signals are thin - you are at real risk of being skipped when buyers ask ChatGPT, Claude, or Perplexity for a recommendation.

About Customer Select
from our crawl and measurement
Customer Select is a business whose own site puts it this way: "Take control of your energy expenses with Nicor Gas Customer Select®. Compare suppliers and find the best natural gas option for your needs today." To AI engines like ChatGPT and Perplexity, though, it is barely visible: it scores 4.8 out of 10.
Our crawl found a readable heading structure. It is missing structured data describing the business, an llms.txt file and a sitemap.
AI crawlers have visited once in our tracking, including ClaudeBot (Anthropic).

What this score means
Your AEO score measures whether AI search engines - ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini - can actually read your site and cite it in answers. Roughly two-thirds of sites are invisible to them. At 4.8/10, Customer Select is crawlable but under-signaled - fixable, and the signals above are where to start.
