How to read this score
0–35 · Mostly human35–65 · Mixed signals65–100 · Mostly AI

The score is a fingerprint of automation, not a quality judgment. A high score means the page reads as machine-generated. It doesn't mean the page is bad.

What we saw

The page shows consistent mid-range AI signals across multiple dimensions: templated biography structure (Quick Bio table, chronological H3 sections, FAQ), generic marketing-adjacent phrasing ("calm authority," "sharp political analysis," "represents both the strength and challenges"), and hedge-and-explain patterns ("Her work helps... Her journey from... highlights..."). The uniform professional tone and absence of specific anecdotes, named colleagues, or internal contradictions point toward LLM composition, though the substantial word count (2167), proper nouns (BBC, Portsmouth News, Radio 4), and well-maintained alt attributes prevent a higher score. Some signal conflict exists: specific job titles and organization names suggest research, but the prose itself lacks the details a human journalist would naturally include.

AI-generated news content creates defamation and accuracy risk

AI models can hallucinate facts, fabricate quotes, and misattribute statements. Publishing AI-generated news content without rigorous editorial review creates liability for defamation, false light, and — in regulated markets — press standards violations.

    Generic phrasing ("calm authority," "sharp political analysis," "balanced reporting style") with repetitive hedge-and-explain patterns and absence of specific anecdotes or named sources

    14 images present with zero missing alt text (well-maintained), but no visible custom photography; likely stock or generic BBC promotional imagery

Sentence rhythmModerate variation

Each bar is one sentence of the page, in reading order — taller means longer. Human prose tends to look jagged, mixing short punches with long explanations. Machine drafts tend to flatten into even bars.

Avg words / sentence14.6
Rhythm variation42%
Vocabulary diversity38%
Sentences analysed67

Computed from the body text we crawled, split on punctuation and filtered to prose-length sentences. Rhythm is a heuristic, not a verdict — some human writers are metronomically even, and a good editor smooths a machine draft.

LLM-marker phrases

No common LLM-marker phrases found — none of the stock AI vocabulary we scan for appears in the body text even once.

SEO audit detail
  • Meta tags
    All present
    Why this matters

    Why it matters. Title and description are the two strings Google shows in search results. They decide whether anyone clicks. A canonical tag tells Google which URL is the source of truth when the same content lives at multiple paths.

    Passing looks like. A non-empty title under 60 characters, a meta description under 160, and a self-referencing canonical link.

    Fix. Add the missing tags inside the page head. Treat the title as a headline you'd want to read in a SERP, not a brand slogan.

  • Heading structure
    1 H1, 1 H2
    Why this matters

    Why it matters. Headings are how crawlers and assistive tech understand a page's outline. One H1 names the page. H2s break it into sections. Skipped levels and missing H1s confuse both.

    Passing looks like. Exactly one H1, at least one H2, and no skipped levels (no H1 to H3 jumps).

    Fix. Replace the missing or duplicate H1 with a single, descriptive heading. Promote section titles to H2. Demote sub-points to H3.

  • Mobile readiness
    Responsive
    Why this matters

    Why it matters. Google indexes mobile-first. A page without a responsive viewport renders zoomed-out on phones, fails Core Web Vitals on touch, and loses its mobile ranking.

    Passing looks like. A meta viewport tag with width=device-width and a layout that reflows under 600px.

    Fix. Add a viewport meta tag set to width=device-width and initial-scale=1, then audit your largest blocks at mobile widths.

  • Page speed signals
    0.2s · 130 KB
    Why this matters

    Why it matters. Page weight and response time directly feed Core Web Vitals. Slow LCP and oversized HTML hurt rankings more than people expect.

    Passing looks like. First-byte under 1.5s, HTML payload under 500 KB, fewer than 30 images on the initial render.

    Fix. Trim render-blocking scripts, defer non-critical CSS, and serve compressed images sized to the viewport. Move heavy components below the fold.

  • Schema markup
    3 schema blocks
    Why this matters

    Why it matters. JSON-LD structured data is how you earn rich results: review stars, FAQ accordions, breadcrumbs, article cards. Skip it and Google has nothing structured to pull from when it builds your SERP card.

    Passing looks like. At least one valid JSON-LD block matching schema.org types relevant to the page (Article, Product, FAQPage, Organization).

    Fix. Add an application/ld+json script block describing the page. Validate with Google's Rich Results Test before deploying.

  • Broken links
    0/5 broken in sample
    Why this matters

    Why it matters. Broken internal links waste crawl budget, degrade UX, and signal to Google that the site isn't well-maintained. They also cap how deep crawlers reach.

    Passing looks like. Every internal link in the sample returns 2xx or 3xx. No dead anchors, no stale paths.

    Fix. Use the link list above to spot the broken paths. Either restore the missing pages or update the links to point at live URLs.

  • Image alt text
    All have alt
    Why this matters

    Why it matters. Alt text is what screen readers read aloud, and what Google reads instead of pixels. Skip it and you lose on both fronts.

    Passing looks like. Every meaningful image has a descriptive alt attribute. Decorative images can use alt="" to be skipped intentionally.

    Fix. Audit images in /assets and CMS uploads. Write alts that describe what's in the image, not what it links to.
