Two crawler categories: AI live-retrieval crawlers fetch pages on demand to answer questions in ChatGPT, Perplexity or Claude; training crawlers feed model pre-training. Only the live-retrieval layer is graded here; the training tier is an editorial choice.

Critical: blocks AI visibility

  • AI live-retrieval crawlers allowed in robots.txt Your robots.txt must allow OAI-SearchBot, ChatGPT-User, PerplexityBot, Perplexity-User, Claude-User, and Claude-SearchBot. These fetch pages on demand to answer questions in ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Claude. Blocking any of them removes the brand from those answers.
  • No silent edge block on AI live-retrieval crawlers Even with robots.txt allowing them, the edge (Cloudflare, WAF, server) can still 403/429/503 AI bot user-agents. Most common culprit: Cloudflare's "Block AI Scrapers and Crawlers" managed rule, or Bot Fight Mode. Allow these UAs at a level above the WAF challenge rules.
  • HTTPS reachable on the homepage The homepage must be reachable over HTTPS without a redirect chain that fails. AI crawlers do not retry on TLS errors.
  • Sitemap reachable A reachable sitemap helps AI crawlers discover internal pages beyond the homepage. We try /sitemap.xml, /sitemap_index.xml (Yoast), /wp-sitemap.xml (WordPress 5.5+), and any Sitemap: URL in robots.txt.
  • Homepage renders content without JavaScript AI retrieval crawlers do not execute JavaScript. If your homepage is a SPA shell that renders client-side, bots see an empty div and have nothing to cite. The page must produce at least 100 words and 1 heading without JS; typically requires server-side rendering or pre-rendering.

Important: improves capture

  • Organization or WebSite JSON-LD on the homepage Organization or WebSite JSON-LD on the homepage helps search engines recognize the brand as an entity (Knowledge Graph, rich results). Current evidence shows no direct effect on grounded-LLM citations; those models read the visible page text, not the JSON-LD. Still useful SERP hygiene; add via schema.org markup in the head.
  • Canonical URL declared A canonical link tag tells crawlers which URL is the definitive version. Avoids citation fragmentation across www / non-www / trailing-slash variants.
  • Open Graph title and image set Open Graph title and image are used by AI assistants in answer cards and preview tiles. Missing either degrades how the citation renders.
  • HSTS header advertised The Strict-Transport-Security header tells browsers to enforce HTTPS for future visits. Set in your web server config or via Plesk's HTTPS Strict Transport Security toggle.
  • SPA detected and a meaningful noscript fallback exists When the homepage is a SPA, a noscript block with real fallback content (not just "please enable JavaScript") gives AI crawlers at least something to read. Best is server-side rendering; this is the half-measure.
