nme.com — Global SEODiff Score 46/100

nme.com
📊

nme.com struggles with AI visibility, recording a critical ACRI of 15/100 — AI crawlers face significant hurdles extracting its content. In the infrastructure sector, nme.com underperforms relative to the average (58), indicating room for competitive improvement. Its server-rendered architecture ensures AI crawlers receive complete HTML on first request, a key advantage for extractability. The 12.1× token bloat ratio falls within the normal range, though there is room to trim navigation, footer, and script overhead. Only 1 schema block is present — adding Organization, WebSite, and Breadcrumb schemas would significantly improve structured data coverage. Complete AI crawler restriction cuts this domain off from the growing AI search ecosystem entirely.

Fastest improvements

  • Allow GPTBot in robots.txt so AI crawlers can access your pages (see Crawl Access).
  • Allow ClaudeBot (many assistants rely on it) — blocking it often correlates with “AI invisibility.”
  • Reduce token bloat (navigation/footer/code) so agents reach your main content faster (see Token Bloat).
  • Create an llms.txt file so AI crawlers can discover your content structure without heavy crawling. Generate llms.txt →
  • Run a full entropy audit to find which DOM regions waste the most tokens. Run Entropy Audit →
