Why this matters

SEO foundation signals determine whether AI crawlers can reach your site at all. Before AI can recommend you, cite you, or sell for you, it has to be able to read your pages. robots.txt, sitemaps, SSL, page speed, and mobile viewport are the gatekeepers.

This is not traditional SEO. AI crawlers do not rank pages in a list of 10 blue links. They parse your site once, extract what they can, and decide whether to include you in their knowledge base. A single misconfigured robots.txt directive can make your entire site invisible to AI.

The gold standard
  • HTTPS with valid SSL certificate
  • robots.txt that allows AI crawlers (Googlebot, GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot)
  • XML sitemap with all indexable pages discoverable
  • Page load time under 2 seconds
  • Mobile viewport tag
  • Exactly 1 H1 tag per page
  • Meta title (30-60 chars) and description (120-160 chars)
  • Canonical tags on every page
  • Zero images without alt text
