AI Visibility Scorecard
The CMO Index
thecmoindex.com · Professional Services
Borderline visible. AI bots can crawl The CMO Index, 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 The CMO Index
from our crawl and measurement
The CMO Index describes itself simply: "Find vetted fractional CMOs in 50+ US cities. The leading directory for businesses seeking part-time marketing leadership." To AI engines like ChatGPT and Perplexity, though, it is barely visible: it scores 3.5 out of 10.
Our crawl found structured data on the page (WebSite) and a readable heading structure. It is missing 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 3.5/10, The CMO Index is crawlable but under-signaled - fixable, and the signals above are where to start.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Fractional CMO?
A fractional CMO (Chief Marketing Officer) is an experienced marketing executive who works with your company on a part-time or contract basis. Instead of paying $250,000-$350,000 per year for a full-time CMO, businesses can access the same level of strategic marketing leadership for $5,000-$15,000 per month.
