Outranking — what a crawler receives from outranking.io

Website measurement, not a product review. This page records what machine clients received from outranking.io. It does not evaluate Outranking software, features, pricing or support.

Answer engines are being served something other than this site.

AI visibility 52/100, measured 2026-10-11 19:02 UTC from outside its network, as each named AI and search crawler and as a browser. An answer engine cannot use this site. Whatever else is true of the marketing, the machine layer is shut.

The three stages, in the order an engine hits a site

Each stage gates the next. An engine that cannot reach a page never reads it; one that cannot read it never quotes it. That is why reach is a ceiling and not just a weight.

61

Stage 1 · 40% of the score

Reach

Can a named answer-engine crawler get your pages at all?

At least one answer engine was refused, challenged or served less than a browser.

77

Stage 2 · 30% of the score

Read

Once it has the bytes, can it find the words?

The content is buried in markup, or the files that guide a crawler are missing.

15

Stage 3 · 30% of the score

Quote

Is there a specific fact it can state and attribute?

An assistant would have to paraphrase your page instead of quoting a fact.

The stage to fix first is quote, because the three run in order.

What to fix

7 findings on this site, 3 of them scored serious. Every one is named below; the top one is shown in full, free. What we saw, why each matters, how to fix it and the bytes behind it are what a licence buys — or we implement the whole list for you.

What we saw

No sitemap at any conventional path and none declared.

Why it matters

Without a sitemap, discovery depends entirely on internal linking. Orphaned and recently published pages may never be found.

How to fix it

Publish a sitemap at /sitemap.xml (most CMSs generate one) and name it in robots.txt.

Developer: a template, theme or application change — a developer touches it

On WordPress (detected)

  1. WordPress 5.5 and later serve /wp-sitemap.xml; Yoast and Rank Math replace it with /sitemap_index.xml. Keep exactly one turned on.
  2. Core's wp-sitemap.xml has no lastmod dates; Yoast and Rank Math sitemaps do. If the finding is missing lastmod, use the plugin sitemap.
  3. Add the sitemap's address to robots.txt as Sitemap: https://yourdomain/sitemap_index.xml.

Grade effect Would cap the letter at D, but the score (52) already reads D, so the letter is the same without it. Moves no points.

The chain a crawler follows

The chain breaks at robots.txt. Everything after that point is only reachable by a crawler guessing the conventional path.

✗robots.txtEvery crawler reads this first
✗sitemapNamed in robots.txt and resolves
✗llms.txtPoints onward, links stay on this host
✗entity graphParses as JSON and points home

A machine file that does not parse is worth less than one that is absent, because it looks present. Rows behind this.

Where the bytes go

Of the 7,882 decompressed bytes the homepage delivers, 0.7% is text a reader or a model can actually use. Most of what a crawler downloads here is not words.

  • Readable text 0.7% · 59 B
  • Markup & attributes 97.4% · 7,679 B
  • Inline JavaScript 1% · 75 B
  • HTML comments 0.9% · 69 B

Is this your company?

This listing came from a fetch, not a submission, so nobody was asked. If outranking.io is yours you can prove it in a minute and for nothing — a DNS TXT record or one meta tag on the home page, both checkable by anyone.

Claiming marks you as the verified owner and lets you correct the category and the company name. It moves no score, no rank and no position.
