31% of this page's content never reaches an AI crawler.

74 words of the 235 a browser renders never reach an AI crawler. An assistant answering a question about this page never sees them.

Both panels are the main text of the same page, counted the same way and fetched twice at the same moment: once as an AI crawler asks for it, with no JavaScript, and once in a real browser. The panel with more text than fits opens to the full text. Text only one side has is highlighted.

Passages an AI crawler never receives

  • 15 words From design to sourcing, let Accio Work handle the heavy lifting. Boost your ROl today! about +3.2 on the score
  • 11 words Apply once to unlock tax‑exempt purchasing and eligible tax refunds about +2.3 on the score
  • 6 words Your Al business team 7/24 about +1.3 on the score
  • 5 words Your shortcut to winning products about +1.1 on the score
  • 5 words Alibaba.com Tax Exemption Program about +1.1 on the score

8 further passages are highlighted in the browser panel above.

Longest first. A passage counts as missing when its text appears nowhere in the HTML a crawler receives, so a block that merely moved is not listed. Lines under 4 words are not judged either way, because a match on "Get Started" would be chance rather than evidence.

Why a crawler does not get this, and the fix

When an AI crawler visits your page it receives a nearly empty shell, because your words only appear after a browser runs the site's code, which crawlers do not do.

The fix Server-side render or statically generate the page so the main content ships in the initial HTML.

Full impact and the evidence from your page

Where this score comes from

Four weighted parts, and the arithmetic is on the page. Nothing here is rounded in your favour, and anything the scan could not measure says so rather than being folded in as a guess.

AI crawlers see little of what your visitors see.

A critical issue is holding this page back. The grade above does not tell the whole story: start with the critical item below.

Part Weight Measured Points
Prose Parity 50% 11% 5.5
Crawler access 25% 100% 25
Structure 15% 62% 9.2
Structured data 10% 40% 4
5.5 + 25 + 9.2 + 4 43.7, reported as 43.8 Read the methodology

Retrievability, measured at 11%, sits beside the score rather than inside it: it checks whether the rendered words can be recovered from the crawler's HTML at all, including from JSON data blocks, and it informs the findings below without adding points.

This page scores higher than 13% of the 1,175 sites we have measured. That puts it in the bottom quarter. See the index.

Not indexed; share this link freely. Save it as a PDF with your browser's print (Cmd or Ctrl + P) for a client-ready copy.

This homepage is 36.2 points short of the 80 that unlocks a score badge. Do this first lists the quickest fixes; scan again once they are live.

See if AI recommends you

We ask one AI engine three questions a buyer would ask about your kind of business, and show you whether alibaba.com is named, who is named instead, and the sources it cites. Free, one per email.

We use the email only to send that one link and to keep it to one free check per address.

Your next move

Do this first

7 things are holding this page back. These are the 3 worth doing first, in order.

  1. Critical Main content is invisible to AI crawlers

    Server-side render or statically generate the page so the main content ships in the initial HTML.

    AI assistants cannot see what you sell or say, so when a buyer asks about your kind of business they get told about competitors whose pages are readable and you are left out entirely.

    See the evidence for this csr_blank

    up to +44.5

  2. Major Different content served to AI crawler user agents

    The server returns a different page body to AI crawler user agents. Verify this is intentional; cloaking risks exclusion.

    AI engines may distrust the mismatch and drop you, and the version they do read may not reflect what you actually offer.

    See the evidence for this cloaking_suspected

  3. Minor Page does not have exactly one H1

    Use a single H1 stating what the page is about.

    AI crawlers can misread the page's main subject, weakening how confidently they match it to the questions buyers actually ask.

    See the evidence for this h1_count

    +2.3

4 more findings below, ranked the same way.

Estimated gain is the sub-score arithmetic applied to this page, not a prediction about citations. Clearing the first item alone would move this page from 43.8 to at most 88.3.

Fixed something? Prove it.

We re-measure this page now and show the before and after side by side, including the parts that did not move. One re-check per report.

What to know about this measurement 3 notes on what was and was not measured

  • Screenshot capture failed (HTTP 422).
  • A cookie consent overlay (CybotCookiebotDialog) was still present at extraction; some rendered text may sit behind it.
  • This page serves different content on every request (two crawler fetches agreed 91%). Parity is reported relative to the page's own per-request variability.

The rendered page No screenshot was captured for this scan

No screenshot was captured for this scan. Some sites refuse the rendering service outright, which does not affect the measurements: those come from the extracted text, not the image.

Bot access matrix 11 of 15 AI crawlers worth a look, none blocked in a way that costs you

Every AI crawler we track, and what your site does when it asks for this page. Turning a model training crawler away is a choice, not a fault, so those are marked apart from the blocks that cost you score.

  • 11 worth a look
  • 1 your choice, or not tested
  • 3 can reach this page

Nothing is fully blocked. 11 rows need a second look before you call this clean.

  • 13 / 15 named crawler tokens allowed in robots.txt
  • 12 / 12 live probes got the page (HTTP 2xx)
  • 3 rule-only or not probed, so no server response to read

Reaching a page is not the same as reading it. The crawlers marked allowed here are let in and receive the same HTML a browser gets, but on this page that HTML is a near-empty shell until JavaScript runs. What they can actually read is scored separately: see Main content is invisible to AI crawlers below.

  • Different page served

    This crawler's user agent received a page whose text does not match the one an ordinary visitor gets. The scan flags it rather than pricing it, so confirm the difference is intentional: AI and search engines treat unexplained mismatches as cloaking.

  • Blocked by choice

    Your robots.txt tells this crawler not to read the page. This one only collects pages for model training, so the block costs you nothing here: it keeps your content out of training sets and does not affect whether AI can answer questions about you today.

  • Allowed

    Your robots.txt allows this token. It is a robots.txt token only: it sends no user agent of its own, so there is no server response to test and none is implied.

  • Reaches your page

    Your robots.txt allows this crawler and your server returned it the same page it returns to a browser. This measures access, not content: whether that HTML is readable without JavaScript is a separate check, scored as retrievability when the page can be graded.

AI-readiness checklist 4 of 7 basics in place

The page basics an assistant needs, checked against what an AI crawler receives rather than the rendered page. These feed the Structure part of the score above.

  • Title tag The page has a title, which is the first thing an assistant names it by. Pass
  • Meta description A meta description is present, which is the summary an assistant may quote. Pass
  • One H1 heading Not exactly one H1. A crawler reads the page subject from its single H1; use one. Needs work
  • Canonical URL A canonical link tells a crawler which URL is the real one. Pass
  • Heading coverage Headings cover the content, so a crawler can index it by section. Pass
  • No wall of text One block is too long to parse well. Split it so a crawler can lift passages. Needs work
  • llms.txt No llms.txt. It is informational only, a nice-to-have rather than a ranking factor. Needs work
  • Structured data Found WebSite, which tells an assistant what this page is. Pass

What is holding you back, worst first

Ranked by severity, worst first. Start at the top: fix the critical items and the rest compounds.

Critical

Main content is invisible to AI crawlers

csr_blank up to +44.5

AI assistants cannot see what you sell or say, so when a buyer asks about your kind of business they get told about competitors whose pages are readable and you are left out entirely.

What this means for you

When an AI crawler visits your page it receives a nearly empty shell, because your words only appear after a browser runs the site's code, which crawlers do not do.

The fix, technically

Server-side render or statically generate the page so the main content ships in the initial HTML.

Evidence from your pageOnly 11% of the rendered main content exists in the initial HTML (235 rendered tokens vs 15957 raw tokens).

Fix the rendering gap. We move the content AI engines miss into the initial HTML: server rendering, static generation, or hydration restructuring, measured before and after with this scanner.

Major

Different content served to AI crawler user agents

cloaking_suspected

AI engines may distrust the mismatch and drop you, and the version they do read may not reflect what you actually offer.

What this means for you

Your site shows AI crawlers a different version of the page than the one real visitors see.

The fix, technically

The server returns a different page body to AI crawler user agents. Verify this is intentional; cloaking risks exclusion.

Evidence from your pageGPTBot, OAI-SearchBot, ChatGPT-User, ClaudeBot, Claude-SearchBot, Claude-User, PerplexityBot, Perplexity-User, Meta-ExternalAgent, Bytespider, Amazonbot received HTTP 200 with a different body than the baseline fetch.

Review your crawler access policy. We map which AI systems you are blocking, deliberately or by accident, and align robots.txt, CDN rules, and directives with the visibility you actually want.

Get an access review
Minor

Page does not have exactly one H1

h1_count +2.3

AI crawlers can misread the page's main subject, weakening how confidently they match it to the questions buyers actually ask.

What this means for you

Your page is missing a single clear main heading that says what it is about, or it has several competing ones.

The fix, technically

Use a single H1 stating what the page is about.

Evidence from your pageFound 0 H1 elements in the initial HTML.

Make the page extraction friendly. Titles, headings, and block structure decide how retrieval systems chunk and quote you. We restructure pages so the right passages surface.

Get a structure pass
Minor

Oversized unbroken text block

wall_of_text +2.3

Retrieval systems tend to trim or skip oversized blocks, so the information buried inside that block may never reach an AI assistant's answer.

What this means for you

One block of text on your page is extremely large with nothing to divide it.

The fix, technically

Split blocks over ~1,200 tokens; retrieval systems truncate or skip oversized chunks.

Evidence from your pageAt least one text block exceeds 1200 tokens.

Minor

No llms.txt

no_llms_txt +1.2

A handful of assistants will read this file if it exists, so adding it gives you a small extra chance of being understood correctly at no cost, though most tools ignore it today.

What this means for you

Your site does not include the optional plain-text guide that some AI assistants look for to understand what your business is about.

The fix, technically

Informational only. Independent 2026 data (Ahrefs, SE Ranking, Google documentation) shows no measurable citation effect from llms.txt. It is checked because it costs nothing and some assistants read it, but it moves neither crawling nor ranking.

Evidence from your pageNo llms.txt at the site root.

Minor

URL redirects off the original domain

offsite_redirect

The scores here describe that other site, so your own page is not the one AI is reading about you.

What this means for you

The web address you entered sends visitors to a different website.

The fix, technically

The scanned URL redirects to a different domain; scores describe the final target.

Evidence from your pagealibaba.com redirected to www.alibaba.com (1 hop(s)).

Minor

Structured data uses no recognized business type

unrecognized_schema up to +6

AI assistants find no labeled business facts to extract, so they fall back to guessing from your prose or skip you for a competitor with proper structured data.

What this means for you

Your page has structured data, but it is only generic page or site markup (like WebPage or WebSite), not the business types AI uses to understand who you are and what you offer.

The fix, technically

Add a recognized business type (Organization, Product, Article, FAQPage, or BreadcrumbList) with its required properties, so AI can extract your business facts.

Evidence from your pagetypes found: WebSite

Ship structured data that parses. We add server-rendered JSON-LD with the required properties for your content types, validated by the same checker that graded this page.

Crawler-view structured data

Entity confidence

We parsed the JSON-LD in the HTML a no-JavaScript crawler receives and checked five properties of the identity it declares. This measures your markup, not any AI system's behavior: nobody outside those systems can observe what they do with a given property, so nothing here is a prediction. Scored separately from your 43.8/100 score.

0/100 Not declared No identity node in the HTML a crawler receives. 0 of 5 signals present
  • Identity declaredYour JSON-LD declares WebSite, SearchAction, EntryPoint, none of which is an Organization-family type. Add an Organization node, or a LocalBusiness or Store subtype, with a name and an absolute url.
  • External identifiers (sameAs)Measured on the identity node, and no identity node was found. Declare one first, then add sameAs URLs to it.
  • Stable identifier (@id)Measured on the identity node, and no identity node was found. Declare one first, then give it an absolute @id.
  • Logo declaredMeasured on the identity node, and no identity node was found. Declare one first, then add logo as a full https URL.
  • Category declaredMeasured on the identity node, and no identity node was found. Declare one first, then state a category as a specific type, a standard industry code, or a resolvable additionalType URL.

Starting point for your identity block

Built from this scan: the URL we resolved, plus one property for each signal above that we did not find. Every REPLACE_ value is a placeholder, so edit them before you ship this. We do not guess names, logos, profile links or categories, so nothing here is invented. 

<script type="application/ld+json">
{
  "@context": "https://schema.org",
  "@type": "Organization",
  "@id": "https://www.alibaba.com/#organization",
  "name": "REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_ORGANIZATION_NAME",
  "url": "https://www.alibaba.com/",
  "logo": "REPLACE_WITH_AN_ABSOLUTE_HTTPS_URL_TO_YOUR_LOGO",

  ],
  "additionalType": "REPLACE_WITH_A_CATEGORY_URL_OR_DELETE_THIS_LINE"
}
</script>

What each signal measures, the weights, and the sample behind them: the methodology page.

llms.txt This site serves none

This site serves no llms.txt. Informational only. Independent 2026 data (Ahrefs, SE Ranking, Google documentation) shows no measurable citation effect from llms.txt. It is checked because it costs nothing and some assistants read it, but it moves neither crawling nor ranking.

Keywords and prompts

Derive the questions people ask AI assistants where this page could be the answer, scored by how much of each the page actually covers, then test whether a named model brings the brand up at all. The scan you are reading is free and anonymous; this check asks a real model live, so it asks for an email.
