Wix does not automatically block AI crawlers by default, but your specific SEO settings or robots.txt configuration can restrict access. You should review your dashboard to ensure that search engine indexing is enabled for your site. ### How can I tell if DeepSeek is ignoring my site's content? You can tell if DeepSeek is ignoring your site by performing site-specific queries in the chat interface. If your pages do not appear in results for relevant topics, you may need to check your robots.txt file for blocks. ### What is the difference between SEO crawling and AI crawler access? SEO crawling focuses on ranking your site in traditional search engines, while AI crawler access involves how models ingest your content for generation. Both rely on open access via robots.txt, but AI platforms prioritize different data structures. ### Can Trakkr help me fix technical issues that prevent DeepSeek from reading my site?
