Technical SEO for AI Crawlers

Unlike simple web-scrapers, AI model crawlers parse structure heavily. If your server is slow, blocks traffic by default, or obscures context behind client-side Javascript, you will not be indexed.

The Technical Checklist

Robots.txt Constraints: AI bots operate under explicit user-agent names (e.g. ChatGPT-User, Anthropic-ai). Use our generator to clear proper paths.
Sitemap XML: Bots use your sitemap to find new edges. You can verify it with our Sitemap Analyzer.
LLMs.txt Deployment: Placed in the server root. This provides structural guidance. Build one with the generator tool.
Semantic HTML: Use actual `<nav>`, `<article>`, and `<h1>`-`<h6>` tags. Generative engines penalize `<div>` soup.
