Google-Extended Not Blocked

🔍 Discovery Quick fix Est. cost: $0

What it means

Checks that robots.txt does not block the Google-Extended user-agent from crawling your site.

Why it matters

Allowing Google-Extended ensures your content is included in Google's AI training data, improving visibility in AI-powered search.

What's wrong

robots.txt has 'User-agent: Google-Extended' followed by 'Disallow: /' — your content is excluded from Google AI training.

What's right

robots.txt either allows Google-Extended or does not mention it, permitting training data inclusion.
