How an enterprise website audit is scoped and delivered?
The self-serve Complete Website Audit is capped at 500 pages because a single queued run has to finish inside a predictable time and cost envelope. Above that size the work changes shape: sitemaps are usually split into sub-sitemaps, crawl rate has to respect the origin, and delivery is normally staged by section rather than published as one enormous report. That is what an enterprise engagement covers.
Scoping starts with your sitemap index. We count the live, same-host, deduplicated URLs, look at how they are grouped, and identify the templates behind them — product pages, documentation, articles, location pages. Template families matter more than raw page count, because a failure that appears on one template appears on every page built from it, and fixing it once repairs thousands of pages.
The analysis itself is unchanged from the self-serve product: each page is fetched once, then three independent engines score it. SEO runs twelve checks on access and on-page signals, AEO runs seven checks on whether an answer engine can lift a self-contained answer, and GEO runs seven checks on whether a generative engine would cite the page as a source. Scores are never averaged.
Custom checks are added where your stack needs them: locale and hreflang correctness, product schema completeness, faceted-URL bloat, paginated series, or internal rules from your own content standards. These are agreed before the crawl starts and are reported alongside the standard 26 checks.
Delivery is staged. You receive a site-level score for each of SEO, AEO and GEO, the ranked template-level fixes that repair the most pages, and a searchable per-page table where any row opens to show the exact failures and corrections. Re-audit cadence — monthly or quarterly — is agreed as part of the quote so you can measure whether the fixes held.
How do you use the Enterprise Audit Quote?
- 1.Check your sitemap index and note the approximate number of live URLs. Anything over 500 is an enterprise engagement.
- 2.Fill in the request form on this page with your site, page count and what matters most — timeline, sections, custom checks or reporting format.
- 3.We reply from support@aianswerengine.app, normally within two business days, with clarifying questions and a proposed scope.
- 4.Agree the scope and the negotiated price. Nothing is charged until the scope is signed off in writing.
- 5.We run the staged crawl and deliver the report in the agreed stages, then schedule any re-audits.
What can this tool not tell you?
- Pages behind authentication, geo-blocks or aggressive bot protection cannot be crawled anonymously; those sections need an allowlist or a test account before they can be scored.
- A perfect score across every page is technical and structural eligibility, not a guarantee of rankings or citations. Authority, originality and competition still decide outcomes.
- AEO and GEO checks are practical heuristics based on how answer engines currently select and cite sources. They are reviewed periodically and are not an official published standard.
- Very large crawls are paced to protect your origin, so a 20,000-page audit is measured in days rather than minutes.
Why very large sites need template-level reporting, not page-level lists?
A 12,000-page report listing every URL and every failure is technically complete and practically useless. Nobody reads it, nobody can prioritise from it, and the sheer volume hides the two or three defects that actually matter. Large sites are not thousands of unique documents; they are a handful of templates rendered thousands of times, plus a long tail of one-off pages.
That is why enterprise reporting is organised by frequency first. If 8,400 pages fail the same check — no author markup, or a canonical that points at a parameterised URL — that is one ticket in one layout file, and it repairs 8,400 pages. Ranking fixes by how many pages they repair converts an intimidating report into a short, ordered engineering and editorial backlog.
The per-page detail still exists, but it is on demand: a searchable table, worst-scoring pages first, where any row expands to show exactly which of the 26 checks failed and how to correct them. That way a content owner can look up their own section without wading through anyone else's, while the technical lead works the template list.
Staged delivery follows the same logic. Rather than waiting for a full crawl to finish before anyone can act, sections are released as they complete, so template fixes can start while the rest of the site is still being read — and the re-audit measures whether those fixes held across every page they touched.
What do worked examples look like?
A 9,000-page ecommerce catalogue
Three product templates account for 8,600 URLs. The audit finds missing product schema on one template and a canonical pointing at the faceted URL on another. Two engineering tickets repair over 8,000 pages, and the staged report shows the score lift after the next crawl.
A 24,000-page documentation estate
Split across eleven sub-sitemaps in four languages. Staged crawling handles each sub-sitemap in turn, hreflang correctness is added as a custom check, and the report is delivered per language so each docs team gets only its own section.
What do people ask most about this tool?
When do I need an enterprise audit instead of the self-serve one?
When your sitemap contains more than 500 URLs, when you need checks beyond the standard SEO, AEO and GEO sets, or when the results must be delivered on a schedule or in a particular format. Below 500 pages the self-serve Full site audit prices instantly and needs no conversation.
How is enterprise pricing decided?
By live page count and scope. The self-serve rate is $0.25 per page with a $29 minimum; enterprise volumes are quoted below that rate where the work is genuinely repeatable, with custom checks, staged delivery and re-audit cadence quoted separately.
How long does a large audit take?
Crawling is paced so it never overloads your origin. A few thousand pages usually complete within a day; tens of thousands are delivered in agreed stages across several days, with each stage readable as soon as it lands.
Do I get the same three independent scores?
Yes. Every page receives an SEO score, an AEO score and a GEO score out of 100, each with its own evidence and correction steps. Nothing is blended into a single number, because the three areas are fixed by different people.
Is anything charged before the scope is agreed?
No. Sending the form opens your email client with the details filled in. Nothing is charged until you approve a written scope and price.
