By tracking these patterns, Trakkr helps you confirm if your robots.txt file or other technical settings are inadvertently restricting AI crawler access to your content. ### What specific actions should I take if crawler access drops? If you notice a drop in crawler access, you should immediately audit your robots.txt file and Squarespace site settings. Ensure that no new rules are blocking the crawler and verify that your server response times are within acceptable limits for automated indexing. ### Does Trakkr provide real-time alerts for crawler access changes?
