About CNET
from our crawl and measurement
CNET is a business whose own site puts it this way: "Get full-length product reviews, the latest news, tech coverage, daily deals, and category deep dives from CNET experts worldwide." To AI engines like ChatGPT and Perplexity, though, it is barely visible: it scores 3.94 out of 10.
Almost none of the machinery AI engines read is present, including structured data describing the business, an llms.txt file, a sitemap.

What this score means
Your AEO score measures whether AI search engines (ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini) can read your site and name it in answers. At 3.94/10, CNET is near-invisible to AI engines today. That is fixable, and the signals above are where to start.
Why your brand doesn't show up in ChatGPT answers (and how to fix it)
ChatGPT doesn't crawl the web like Google does. When someone asks Claude about the best project management tools, the model isn't searching your website in real-time. It's pulling from training data that stopped months or years ago.
