About HostScore
from our crawl and measurement
HostScore describes itself simply: "Discover data-driven web hosting ratings, in-depth reviews, and free tools to help you choose the right hosting for your website in 2026." To AI engines like ChatGPT and Perplexity it is partially visible, scoring 6.9 out of 10, readable in places and missing in others.
On the page itself the strengths are clear: a clear heading structure, crawler access and the files AI engines look for and sitemaps and entity links AI can follow. It is passable on some structured data, a partly stated business identity and a few credibility markers.
Away from its own site, other sites link to it and it comes up on Reddit. There is some, but not much, sign that the domain is only lightly established. Beyond that, AI engines do not yet recognise it as a distinct business, there is no press coverage to draw on and nobody is discussing it where AI engines look. Those are earned elsewhere on the web, not fixed on the site itself.
AI crawlers have visited once in our tracking, including ClaudeBot (Anthropic). It does link out to several social profiles, which helps engines tie the brand together.

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 6.9/10, HostScore has a working base to build on - fixable, and the signals above are where to start.
