3. Homepage Audit

  • Homepage could not be fetched HTTP 403

4. Schema / Structured Data Audit

  • No JSON-LD structured data found Add JSON-LD blocks (Organization, SoftwareApplication, FAQPage, BreadcrumbList) so AI answer engines can ingest your data without guessing.

5. robots.txt and sitemap.xml Audit

  • sitemap.xml not found Add /sitemap.xml — required for reliable AI/SERP discovery.
  • ⚠️ robots.txt does not reference a Sitemap Add Sitemap: https://yoursite.com/sitemap.xml to robots.txt.
  • robots.txt present 538 chars

6. LLM / AI Crawler Accessibility

  • GPTBot blocked via wildcard User-agent: * is disallowed from / and no explicit rule for GPTBot overrides it.
  • ClaudeBot blocked via wildcard User-agent: * is disallowed from / and no explicit rule for ClaudeBot overrides it.
  • PerplexityBot blocked via wildcard User-agent: * is disallowed from / and no explicit rule for PerplexityBot overrides it.
  • Google-Extended blocked via wildcard User-agent: * is disallowed from / and no explicit rule for Google-Extended overrides it.
  • OAI-SearchBot blocked via wildcard User-agent: * is disallowed from / and no explicit rule for OAI-SearchBot overrides it.

  • ⚠️ llms.txt missing Add /llms.txt — a concise, link-rich summary that helps LLMs orient on your site.
  • ⚠️ skill.md missing Add /skill.md describing what your site lets agents do — speeds up agent task routing.
  • ⚠️ /.well-known/security.txt missing Publish a /.well-known/security.txt with at least a Contact: line. Crawlers and security researchers expect it; AI systems use it as a trust signal.

7. Positioning Clarity

  • ⚠️ H1 missing or too short to convey value Add a clear, single-sentence H1 like 'We help X do Y.'
  • No discoverable CTA Add a clearly-labeled Contact, Demo, or Sign up link to the nav or hero.
  • ⚠️ No clear About/Team link Add an About or Team link in the nav or footer so LLMs can identify the company.
  • ⚠️ No pricing/plans link found AI summaries commonly include pricing. Add a /pricing page even if pricing is custom.
  • ⚠️ Value-prop language not detected Pages with phrases like 'we help X', 'platform for Y', 'built for Z' are easier for LLMs to summarize.
