      <description>To show up in AI answers, allow the search crawlers: OAI-SearchBot for ChatGPT search, PerplexityBot, Claude-SearchBot, Googlebot and Bingbot. Blocking training crawlers such as GPTBot, ClaudeBot or CCBot keeps your pages out of model training, but doesn't remove you from AI search answers.</description>

      <description>Write down the questions your buyers ask, ask each engine every question more than once without your own history, and count how often you're named and which sites are cited. One ChatGPT chat is a sample of one: in our data, asking the same question twice gave answers that shared only 46% of their sources.</description>

      <title>llms.txt: what it is, whether it helps, and how to write one</title>

      <description>llms.txt is a markdown file at yoursite.com/llms.txt that summarizes your site for language models and links to your most useful pages. It's a proposed standard from llmstxt.org. It's cheap to add and helps the agents and AI tools that read it, but no major AI search engine has said it uses llms.txt to decide what to cite, so on its own it won't fix missing visibility.</description>
