--- title: "Free AI visibility score badge" description: "Show your website’s Good for Bots score with a free, live badge. Find your report, copy the embed code and earn a dofollow backlink." url: "https://goodforbots.com/badge" --- # Show your Good for Bots score. Add a free, live badge to your website. It updates after each published scan and links to your public report. [How the score and capabilities are assessed](https://goodforbots.com/standards#scoring) [Find your badge](https://goodforbots.com/badge#find-badge) by entering your website address. Free, no account needed. Opens your published report. If the report is missing, start a free scan on the [home page](https://goodforbots.com/#scan). ## Three steps. One small embed. An image and a link. No script to install. 1. **Find your report.** Enter your domain above to find your published report and its badge. 2. **Copy the code.** Click the badge on your report to copy HTML, or open “Embed on your site”. Choose HTML for your website or Markdown for a README. 3. **Add it to your site.** Paste it into your footer, ideally on your homepage. Keep the link to your report so visitors can see the evidence. HTML / example only. Get your own HTML or Markdown from your report. ```html Good for Bots score for example.com ``` ## Display your badge. Earn a dofollow backlink. On Free, your backlink becomes dofollow after a scan detects the link back to Good for Bots on your site. Add the linked badge to your homepage footer, where our bot can find it. Verification happens during a scan, not the moment you paste the code. Pro listings already have a dofollow backlink, with or without a badge. Installing a badge never changes your score. ## Small badge. Clear meaning. Illustrative scores: - Poor: 34 (0–44 points). - Fair: 73 (45–74 points). - Good: 87 +2 (75–89 points). - Excellent: 96 (90–100 points). ### One score, out of 100 The number is your latest published score. The word and colour show its band: Poor, Fair, Good, Excellent. ### Extra capabilities, shown separately A +N beside the band counts detected agent capabilities, such as MCP or A2A. These do not add points to the score. ### A report behind every badge Clicking your badge opens the checks and findings behind the number. Payment never changes the score. ## Badge questions ### Is the badge free? Yes. The live badge and HTML and Markdown embed snippets are available on Free and Pro. Installing it is optional, and both plans receive the same score. ### When does the badge update? It reflects your latest published scan automatically; you do not need to replace the embed code. It does not continuously monitor your site. Image caches can delay when a new result appears. ### What if my score drops? The badge shows the new score and band after the next published scan. A lower score is not hidden. If the bot is blocked or your site opts out, the badge shows “Blocked” or “Opted out” instead of a scored band. ### Can I use it in a GitHub README? Yes. Copy the Markdown snippet from your report. GitHub caches images, so updates may take longer to appear. A badge in a GitHub README alone does not earn a dofollow backlink for your website: verification looks for the link on your own site. ### Why is my backlink still nofollow? On Free, a scan must find the link back to Good for Bots on a page it reads. Put the linked badge in the server-rendered homepage footer and [allow our bot to read the page](https://goodforbots.com/bot#controls). A badge image without the link does not count; installing it on a page the scanner never visits may not be detected. Once it is in place, [request a rescan](https://goodforbots.com/faq#rescan) or wait for the next automatic scan. ### Does it need JavaScript or a plugin? No. The HTML embed is an SVG image inside a link. Paste it into a custom HTML block or your site’s template. Keep the hosted image URL so the badge can update after future scans.
