Findings

What to fix first

  1. The server turns AI crawlers away at the door +3.3 points

    Live fetches as ClaudeBot (http_403) 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. No llms.txt no points, still worth doing
