Results
Reading your results: what we measure
What your dashboard measures per part, why there is no overall score any more, and why you sometimes deliberately get no result.
Open this in the portal →No overall score, four measurements
We no longer show a combined VEO score. An average of four different measurements turned out to say nothing about how well you are found. So we show, per part, what we actually measured.
| Part | What it measures | How you see it |
|---|---|---|
| Website check (SEO) | Whether your page is technically and editorially well built for search engines | How many checks are in order, for example "4 of 6 in order" |
| Answer quality (AEO) | Whether your page has the elements that make it usable as an answer to a question | How many of those elements are present |
| AI visibility (GEO) | Whether AI assistants mention you for the questions that matter to you | In how many of the measured questions you are mentioned, with a margin |
| Speed | How fast your page loads | Google PageSpeed's result, a number from 0 to 100 |
How the AI measurement works and how to read the margin is explained in AI visibility: how the scan works. The buttons on your dashboard, such as View SEO and View AEO, show the individual points each result rests on.
In the Website check, every page has a coloured dot. Green: nothing to fix for the website check. Amber: there are points to improve, such as a title that is too long or missing Open Graph tags. Red: Google may not show the page (noindex), or, with a cross, the page does not work. A warning sign means we could not read the page. Missing FAQ or Organization schema does not set the colour; you see that advice when you open the page. The list starts with what needs attention first.
Why you sometimes see "Incomplete scan"
If we could not read your page, we show no result for the website check and answer quality, but the status "Incomplete scan". The parts we could measure are shown separately.
That happens in these cases:
- The page returned an error (404, 500, or a page that technically works but is empty).
- The page was shielded by protection. Think of a Cloudflare interstitial saying "Just a moment…" or "Verify you are human". Such a screen technically returns a valid page, so it looks like it worked. But what we would be measuring is that interstitial, not your website. We deliberately do not count it.
What does not happen
We never fill a failed measurement with a zero. A 0 would read as "your page is bad", when the reality is "we could not read your page". Those are two different things.
For the same reason, an earlier result does not disappear when a new measurement fails. We keep showing your last valid measurement, with a note that the most recent attempt was incomplete.
What you can do about it
If you keep seeing "Incomplete scan", it is usually not a problem with your content but with reachability. A website behind a strict firewall or anti-bot protection can stay unreadable to us. VEO does not use workarounds such as proxies or a simulated browser, so in that case we report it honestly rather than inventing a result.
