Coercing Google into properly crawling your site has been a core technical SEO task for decades.
As we move into the AI search era, trying to do the same for ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, etc., is a much more difficult task.
We’ve found many sites are accidentally blocking AI search services, preventing them from ranking in AI search.
To help with this, we’ve added a new publicly available AI Search Console to the Knowatoa platform.
The console:
- Checks for active blocks from firewalls, Cloudflare, CDNs, or security plugins.
- It covers not just the big services but all of the underlying services that collect data on behalf of the larger services.
- Simulates an actual request to your site from the AI indexing service.
- Provides specific guidance per service in case of failure, including how to fix the issue.
- Lets you share the results with your IT team or web hosting service to help them fix the issues.
- Provides a full report of the results for your site.
- Is completely free to use.
