About Gus Steelman
from our crawl and measurement
Gus Steelman describes itself simply: "Thirty years of buying tools with his own money, and the bad habit of keeping every receipt. When to buy, where to buy, and what the price tag is actually saying at Harbor Freight, Home." To AI engines like ChatGPT and Perplexity, though, it is barely visible: it scores 3.7 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.

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 3.7/10, Gus Steelman is crawlable but under-signaled - fixable, and the signals above are where to start.
