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 4.2/10, How to make hard cider is crawlable but under-signaled - fixable, and the signals above are where to start.
Is making my own hard cider legal?
YES! In the U.S., as long as you don’t sell it, every adult in your home may brew up to 100 gallons of wine, beer or cider per year. More than that, and you need a liquor license… and likely a 12-Step Program.
Curious about the Amazon links all over this site?
Because of my remote location, I have been buying my brew supplies online for close to 15 years. If you can’t walk into a local brew store, Amazon is simply the best place to buy a wide selection of brew gear (most of the major vendors are now selling there), and they often offer free shipping.
