Findings

Severity	Finding	Why it matters
CRITICAL	noindex meta tag on /checkout/ https://lizbentley.com/checkout/	Your /checkout/ page tells every crawler to ignore it while the rest of the site is open. Found: noindex, follow
CRITICAL	noindex meta tag on /cart/ https://lizbentley.com/cart/	Your /cart/ page tells every crawler to ignore it while the rest of the site is open.
WARNING	Heading hierarchy issues: no H1, skipped heading levels	LLM retrieval splits pages into chunks along heading structure; broken hierarchy produces orphan chunks with no context.
WARNING	Title or description needs work: meta description on / is 229 chars (aim for 50 to 160) https://lizbentley.com/	These are the raw material that citation snippets are built from. Your meta description is over 160 characters, so AI systems and search snippets truncate it mid-sentence. Character counts are for the decoded text, so an entity like & counts as one character, not five.
INFO	Organization schema is thin: fewer than 2 sameAs links	sameAs links to LinkedIn, Crunchbase and similar profiles are the entity-corroboration signal that confirms you are you.
INFO	No llms.txt found	llms.txt is an emerging convention some AI crawlers read for site guidance. Adding one is a five minute quick win.
INFO	Verify your Bing index manually	Microsoft Copilot answers from Bing's index; if Bing has not indexed you, Copilot cannot cite you. Automated Bing verification is unreliable without authenticated APIs, so we will not fake it.

Prioritized fix order

Criticals first. Quick wins are flagged with time estimates so you can bank momentum early.

1. Remove the noindex directive (WordPress) · est. 15 min

Addresses: noindex meta tag on /checkout/ (CRITICAL)

Go to Settings, then Reading, and make sure 'Discourage search engines from indexing this site' is unchecked.
If you use Yoast or Rank Math, open the page's SEO settings and set 'Allow search engines to show this page' to Yes.
Clear any caching plugin (WP Rocket, W3 Total Cache) after saving, then re-run this scan.

2. Remove the noindex directive (WordPress) · est. 15 min

Addresses: noindex meta tag on /cart/ (CRITICAL)

Go to Settings, then Reading, and make sure 'Discourage search engines from indexing this site' is unchecked.
If you use Yoast or Rank Math, open the page's SEO settings and set 'Allow search engines to show this page' to Yes.
Clear any caching plugin (WP Rocket, W3 Total Cache) after saving, then re-run this scan.

3. Repair the heading hierarchy · est. 1 to 2 hours

Addresses: Heading hierarchy issues: no H1, skipped heading levels (WARNING)

Use exactly one H1 per page and do not skip levels; LLM retrieval splits pages into chunks along heading structure, and broken hierarchy produces orphan chunks with no context.
Restructure headings in the page template rather than styling text to look like headings.

4. Fix title and meta description · est. 30 min

Addresses: Title or description needs work: meta description on / is 229 chars (aim for 50 to 160) (WARNING)

Write a title of 15 to 70 characters containing your brand or the page topic, and a meta description of 50 to 160 characters.

5. Add Organization schema with sameAs links · est. 30 min

Addresses: Organization schema is thin: fewer than 2 sameAs links (INFO)

Add the JSON-LD below to your homepage head, filling in your real details.
The sameAs links are the entity-corroboration signal that connects your site to your LinkedIn and other profiles.
Validate at validator.schema.org.

<script type="application/ld+json">
{
  "@context": "https://schema.org",
  "@type": "Organization",
  "name": "Liz Bentley Associates",
  "url": "https://lizbentley.com",
  "logo": "https://lizbentley.com/logo.png",
  "description": "What Liz Bentley Associates does, in one sentence.",
  "sameAs": [
    "https://www.linkedin.com/company/lizbentley",
    "https://x.com/lizbentley"
  ]
}
</script>

6. Add an llms.txt file · est. 15 min

Addresses: No llms.txt found (INFO)

Save the generated draft below as /llms.txt at your site root.
It is a plain-markdown guide that tells AI systems what your most important pages are; adoption is emerging, and it costs nothing.

What this scan cannot see

This report measures whether AI systems can READ your site. It cannot measure whether AI RECOMMENDS you: your Share of Model, which competitors get cited in your place, or whether your content answers the questions buyers actually ask AI. That requires prompt-testing against your named competitors across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, Copilot and Google AI Overviews.

That is the AI Search Audit by Citant.ai: a fixed-scope engagement at $440 that maps your citation gaps, names the competitors winning your queries, and hands you a prioritized plan.

Our crawler tests send each bot's user agent from our own servers, not from the AI companies' verified IP ranges. Some firewalls, including Cloudflare, verify crawlers by network identity rather than user agent. That means a site can challenge our test request while allowing the real, verified crawler. When that happens this scan over-reports blocking; it never under-reports it. The Googlebot result is the most exposed to this, because fake Googlebots are the most common spoof and are policed hardest.

Get every critical fixed

The AI Search Audit covers all six platforms and hands you the exact fix for every critical, with a 30 minute call.
