See why AI shopping ignores your store
The AI Shopping Readiness Audit is a scoped diagnosis of how visible your e-commerce store is in AI shopping and search, and it shows what is stopping you before anyone pitches a fix.
Built for Dubai and UAE store owners who paid for SEO and saw little change. It looks at the parts most audits skip: your product feed and the Catalog fields nobody checked.
What the audit covers
The AI Shopping Readiness Audit is a fixed-scope diagnostic that MG Lumeo runs on an e-commerce store. It checks whether AI shopping systems and search engines can find, read, and recommend your products, then reports what is blocking them, ranked by how much it costs you. It works on Shopify, WordPress, and custom-coded stores, and it reads your product data, not just your web pages.
If your store runs on a platform MG Lumeo does not support, this is not the right first step for you.

How this differs from a free SEO audit tool
- Free tool: crawls your website and scores it automatically.Audit: reads your website, reviewed by a person.
- Free tool: cannot read your product feed.Audit: reads your product feed and flags where it is thin or broken.
- Free tool: cannot see your Google Merchant Center Catalog exclusions.Audit: finds the exclusions holding your products back, and why.
- Free tool: does not check whether AI shopping can recommend you.Audit: checks AI-shopping readiness across your feed, Catalog, and site.
- Free tool: a generic score.Audit: findings ranked by impact on your store.
Automated crawlers like Semrush, AIOSEO, and Sitechecker are worth running, they just check a different thing.

Questions we get asked
Most SEO audits re-check the same surface layer: keyword research, on-page SEO, and a technical crawl of the website. Publicly, the ranking Dubai audit pages check the same classic six, keywords, content, on-page, off-page, technical, and competitor, and none of them checks the feed. So they miss the product feed, the Google Merchant Center Catalog exclusions, and the product data that decide whether AI shopping can recommend you at all. AI shopping systems read structured product data, not just website pages.
The AI Shopping Readiness Audit includes two layers. The first is the standard SEO layer: technical health, on-page structure, indexing, and site speed. The second is the product-data layer: your product feed, Google Merchant Center Catalog exclusions, and the fields AI shopping reads. You get a ranked report and a walkthrough call.
You get a written AI Shopping Readiness report: the specific issues found in your product feed, Catalog, and site, ranked by impact, with a plain-language action plan. It is a prioritised report, not a generic checklist, and every item points to the page or feed field to fix. A walkthrough call then talks you through it, with no obligation to continue.
A free SEO audit tool crawls your website and scores on-page and technical signals automatically. It cannot read your product feed or your Google Merchant Center Catalog exclusions. The AI Shopping Readiness Audit checks both layers, reviewed by a person, and ranks the findings by impact on your store.
The cost of an SEO audit depends on your store size and catalogue, the number of markets you sell in, and your platform: Shopify, WordPress, or custom-coded. The AI Shopping Readiness Audit itself is free, and anyone can request it by entering their brand details. If you later want project work, MG Lumeo shares a custom proposal before any paid work starts, and that price follows your store size, markets and platform. The full pricing model lives on our How We Price page.
The AI Shopping Readiness Audit follows four steps: you book it, you grant read-only access, MG Lumeo inspects both layers, and you receive a ranked report with a walkthrough call. We share the timeline when you book, so there is no open-ended wait.
You can run the surface layer of an SEO audit yourself with a free tool, and it is worth doing. What a tool cannot do is read your product feed, find your Google Merchant Center Catalog exclusions, or judge whether AI shopping can recommend you. Those need access and a human review.
MG Lumeo audits stores built on Shopify, WordPress, and custom-coded platforms. If your store runs on one of these, the AI Shopping Readiness Audit fits. The audit reads your product feed and site together, so both the platform and the feed are part of what MG Lumeo checks.
