XML Sitemap

Missing

Your website does not have an XML sitemap - this can be a problem for search engines.

An XML sitemap informs search engines about URLs available for crawling on your site. It includes information about your site's latest updates, frequency of changes and relative importance of each URL. This allows search engines to crawl the site more efficiently.

AI Search Readiness

These checks were added after this site was analyzed, so they aren't part of its score yet. They will be from the next update.

AI Crawlers

AI search crawlers are allowed, so the site can be shown and cited in AI answers (ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity).

OAI-SearchBot ChatGPT search AI search
ChatGPT-User ChatGPT (user requests) AI search
Claude-SearchBot Claude search AI search
Claude-User Claude (user requests) AI search
PerplexityBot Perplexity AI search
GPTBot OpenAI training AI training
ClaudeBot Anthropic training AI training
Google-Extended Google Gemini training AI training
Applebot-Extended Apple AI training AI training
CCBot Common Crawl AI training

Blocking AI training crawlers is a common choice and doesn't affect the score. Only the AI search crawlers count.

Structured Data

No schema.org structured data found. Adding it (for example Organization, WebSite or Product in JSON-LD) helps search engines and AI tools understand the page and can enable rich results.

Canonical Tag

The homepage has a canonical tag, which tells search engines which URL is the main version of the page.

llms.txt

No llms.txt file. It's an emerging convention: a short Markdown summary of the site for AI tools. Optional, so it doesn't affect the score.

Security

HTTPS

The site loads over HTTPS, so connections are encrypted. Browsers and search engines expect this.

HSTS

The site sends a Strict-Transport-Security header, so browsers always use HTTPS for it.

Security Headers

3 of 5 common security headers found. At least 2 are needed to pass.
