What is an AISO score?

An AISO score is defined as a 0-to-100 rating measuring how well a website works for search engines, AI tools, and all visitors including those with disabilities.

AEO refers to Answer Engine Optimization, the practice of formatting content so AI assistants can find and describe your congregation to seekers.

Why do religious organizations need website optimization?

Families moving to new areas use AI to find faith communities. Organizations with clear service times, program details, and location data get recommended.

What schema should churches use?

Use PlaceOfWorship schema with denomination, service times, address, and programs. Add Event schema for upcoming activities and FAQPage schema for visitor questions.

How do AI tools find churches and religious organizations?

AI reads structured data about service times, programs, beliefs, and location. Websites with only bulletins and sermon archives give AI little to work with.

Should religious organizations share beliefs on their website?

Yes, in plain language. A clear, accessible belief statement helps newcomers and AI systems understand your congregation's identity and values.

What accessibility issues affect religious websites?

Sermon audio without transcripts, event calendars without screen reader support, and PDF bulletins without accessible formatting.

How often should religious websites be updated?

Update event calendars weekly. Keep service times current for holidays. Add new program content as ministries launch or change.

Houses of Worship Welcome Everyone. Except Search Engines.
