Findings

What to fix first

  1. The server turns AI crawlers away at the door +10 points

    Live fetches as GPTBot (cloudflare_challenge), ClaudeBot (cloudflare_challenge), PerplexityBot (cloudflare_challenge) were refused while a normal browser got the page. This is usually a hosting or firewall bot list the owner never chose. Ask the host to allow these user agents. How to fix it

  2. Ordering through an unrecognised third party +9 points

    Check that the provider keeps you as the merchant of record. How to fix it

  3. No llms.txt no points, still worth doing
