Which posts are tagged gptbot?
AI Visibility Can blocking AI crawlers remove me from ChatGPT answers
No. Blocking GPTBot stops future training crawls. ChatGPT search uses OAI-SearchBot. Trained weights do not rewind, and other sources can still name you.
AI Visibility Which AI bots should I allow vs block
Allow citation crawlers if you want to be recommended; block Bytespider and CCBot if you do not need them. GPTBot trains. Googlebot is not Google-Extended.
AI Visibility Can I do AEO myself or do I need an agency
Yes — DIY week one: extractable answers, matching schema, and allow GPTBot. Hire for competitive categories, a measurement stack, or entity-cleanup work.
AI Visibility Block Training Bots if You Want — Don’t Accidentally Block Being Cited
Block GPTBot for training if you want — keep OAI-SearchBot allowed for ChatGPT search citations. Google-Extended does not control Google Search indexing.
