Why AI search engines might be completely missing your new website

When shipping a new side-project, most developers remember meta tags and sitemaps, but completely forget two silent killers:

1. AI Crawler Directives (robots.txt): Search engines are evolving into AI-first answers (SearchGPT, Claude, Perplexity). If your robots.txt does not explicitly handle bots like GPTBot or OAI-SearchBot, your site might not get indexed for AI citations.

2. Email Security (SPF & DMARC): If you send welcome emails or magic links, missing SPF/DMARC records guarantee high spam rates.

I built a free, no-signup lightweight checker to scan your domain's AI visibility and email configuration in 10 seconds:
