  "description": "Learn how to verify if Google Gemini is crawling your WordPress site. Follow these technical steps to ensure your content is visible in AI-generated answers.",
  "summary": "Verifying Gemini's access to your WordPress site requires checking robots.txt files, monitoring Google Search Console logs, and using Trakkr to track AI citations. These steps ensure your content remains discoverable by AI models and properly indexed for future search queries.",
  "answer": "To check if Google Gemini can read your WordPress site, you must first verify that your robots.txt file does not disallow Google's AI crawlers. You should then monitor Google Search Console for crawl activity and potential errors that might block access to your pages. Additionally, perform manual prompt tests within Gemini to see if it cites your specific URLs when answering relevant industry questions. For ongoing visibility, use the Trakkr AI visibility platform to track how often your brand is mentioned and cited across Gemini and other major AI platforms.",
