Perplexity relies on web crawling to index content for its answer engine, so your site must be technically accessible to these bots. You should review your Squarespace settings to ensure no disallow directives are preventing access. Beyond manual checks, use Trakkr to monitor whether your pages are being cited in Perplexity answers. This approach provides ongoing visibility into how AI platforms interact with your content, allowing you to identify and resolve potential indexing gaps that might limit your brand's presence in AI-generated responses.",
