How to Run a GEO Audit on Any URL Using a Standard-Library Python Script
Generative engine optimization audits check whether AI search tools such as ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Copilot and Perplexity can reach, understand and quote a page. Much of that assessment requires human judgment, but a portion can be verified automatically, including crawler access rules and hidden failures like firewall blocks. The author's LovedByAI platform runs these checks for small-business WordPress sites, and this guide offers a do-it-yourself Python script covering machine-checkable items from a 30-point checklist. Because Python's built-in urllib.robotparser misreads robots.txt in some cases, the script implements the RFC 9309 longest-match rules and reports which line decided each verdict. The tool does not evaluate qualitative factors such as answer quality or the reliability of proof, which remain with a person.
