IFG GEO Optimizer. SEO and GEO audit
IFG GEO Optimizer is a Shopify app that analyses and improves the technical signals search engines and AI assistants use to read a catalogue: structured data, crawler access, extractable content. It works only on what the merchant controls and promises neither rankings nor citations. It is developed by Francesco Guiducci for IFG Development.

Overview 
Catalogue audit 
Crawler simulator
The problem it addresses
Search engines and AI assistants read a Shopify store through technical signals: schema.org structured data, pages reachable without relying on JavaScript alone, clear and retrievable information, crawler access. When these are missing or inconsistent, the catalogue is harder to read and reuse. Working on these signals for systems that generate answers is called GEO, Generative Engine Optimization.
Many promises of the “rank on AI” kind cannot be verified: citations and recommendations depend on external systems no merchant controls. The app starts from that limit: it measures and improves only the signals the merchant can govern, with no hidden content and no speculative changes.
How it works
- 1. Catalogue auditThe app analyses products and content and highlights missing or improvable technical signals.
- 2. Reading the signalsThe same panel shows structured data, crawler access, content extractability and machine-readable resources.
- 3. Explicit changesFixes are guided where provided; FAQs generated with AI stay drafts until the merchant chooses.
- 4. Monitoring over timeAudits can be compared over time and, where supported, citations detected in the supported engines can be observed.
Main features
- Catalogue auditAnalyses products and content to highlight missing or improvable technical signals.
- Structured dataChecks the schema.org information available and supports explicit fixes where provided.
- Crawler accessChecks whether pages can be reached and read without depending on JavaScript alone.
- AI crawler simulatorShows how a store appears to a crawler, to understand what is actually readable.
- Content extractabilityAssesses how clear, consistent and retrievable the important information is.
- AI-assisted FAQsGenerates FAQ drafts that the merchant reviews before anything is published.
- AI monitoringLets you observe over time any citations detected in the supported engines, without attributing them to a guarantee of the app.
When it makes sense
- Large catalogueA systematic audit shows where structured data or extractable content is missing, without checking pages one by one.
- Measuring before and afterComparing the catalogue’s state over time shows whether changes affected the signals the merchant controls.
- Working with a consultantAudit results are an objective basis to share with whoever looks after the store’s SEO and content.
Scope and limits
No app can guarantee that ChatGPT, Google, Perplexity, Claude or other systems will crawl, index, cite, recommend or rank a store. IFG GEO Optimizer only improves and measures the signals the merchant can control.
