Action plan is what to do next — copy-pasteable changes prioritized by impact. Category visibility is the real GEO test: when a user asks an AI a brand-free question that should surface nxtrace/NTrace-core, does the AI actually recommend you — or your competitors? Objective checks verify the metadata signals AI engines weight first. Self-mention check detects whether AI even knows you exist by name.
Action plan — copy-paste fixes
3 prioritized changes generated by gemini-2.5-flash. Mark items done after you ship the fix.
- highreadme#1Reposition README H4 to emphasize advanced capabilities and differentiation
Why:
CURRENT<h4 align="center">An open source visual routing tool that pursues light weight, developed using Golang.</h4>
COPY-PASTE FIX<h4 align="center">NextTrace: A high-performance, visual route tracking CLI tool for advanced network path analysis, surpassing traditional traceroute and mtr.</h4>
- mediumreadme#2Add a 'Why NextTrace?' section highlighting performance and scalability
Why:
COPY-PASTE FIXAdd a new section titled 'Why NextTrace?' or 'Key Features' early in the README, detailing its advantages in performance, low latency, scalability, and accuracy for complex network environments.
- lowtopics#3Add 'distributed-tracing' and 'network-diagnostics' to topics
Why:
CURRENTapi, as-path, asn-lookup, geoip, geolocation, ip-lookup, network-analysis, next-trace, nexttrace, traceroute, utility
COPY-PASTE FIXapi, as-path, asn-lookup, geoip, geolocation, ip-lookup, network-analysis, next-trace, nexttrace, traceroute, utility, distributed-tracing, network-diagnostics
