Models compare and recommend on the user's behalf. The numbers show the structural shift between 2025 and 2026. ~58% More than half of Google searches now end with zero clicks. SparkToro 2024 800M+ Weekly active ChatGPT users; search became an answer-generation surface. OpenAI +1300% Growth in referral traffic shifting from traditional SERPs to LLM surfaces. SimilarWeb 2025 47% Share of B2B buyers researching purchases through ChatGPT or Perplexity. Gartner 2025 64% Brands budgeting SI Search Optimization as a separate line in 2026. Forrester 2025 3.2x How much more often sites optimised with llms.txt and structured data get cited by LLMs. Webtures Lab Outcomes · 6 Tangible Results ## What we deliver in the SI era. Six outcomes that start where traditional SEO ends, each one measurable. Visibility ### Stay visible in generative SI answers Your brand is cited as a source in ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Copilot answers; customers discover you, not your competitor. Insights ### Understand real SI agent behaviour Beyond keywords: we analyse how SI agents perceive your content and surface intent, trends and opportunities. LLMO ### Make your content readable and quotable From schema markup to contextual optimisation; we structure your content so models recognise and cite it. Strategy ### Go beyond classic SEO Against declining organic traffic we build durable visibility with GEO and LLMO, a strategy that still holds tomorrow. Tracking ### Measure SI visibility, prove the impact We track how often you appear in SI answers, which pages get cited and what converts; prompts and citations become clear KPIs. Speed ### Ship fast, stay ahead of change The SI search ecosystem changes weekly. We iterate content, schema and entity signals quickly and test across models. Service scope · 4 Pillars · 8 Dimensions ## What we measure, and how. We analyse the site across 50+ criteria from the SI's read–evaluate–pick-a-source perspective, not the SEO one. 01 · Access ### SI Bot Accessibility robots.txt, GPTBot/ClaudeBot/PerplexityBot permissions, firewall restrictions and dynamic content access. Çıktı · **Access Map** 02 · Meaning ### Content & Semantic Structure Heading hierarchy, semantic HTML, structured data, entity clarity and citability. Çıktı · **Schema + Entity Score** 03 · Action ### Technical Infrastructure & Actionability Server-side rendering, API access, form & checkout automation, machine readability of the data layer. Çıktı · **API + SSR Report** 04 · Authority ### SI Citation & Reference Source-selection potential, per-model visibility, reference frequency and brand mention density. Çıktı · **Citation Index** 018 checks #### Structured Data Schema.org coverage, JSON-LD, Org/Product/FAQ/Review, rich properties. 0211 checks #### SI Discoverability llms.txt, AGENTS.md, sitemap, robots, canonical, OG, meta description. 034 checks #### Content Readability Heading hierarchy, semantic HTML, alt text discipline, block structure. 044 checks #### Technical Foundation HTTPS, mobile viewport, Core Web Vitals, low error rate. 053 checks #### API Readiness Public API endpoint, OpenAPI documentation, CORS configuration. 063 checks #### Agent Protocol MCP manifest, function calling readiness, Plugin/Actions structure. 074 platforms #### SI Visibility How often GPT, Claude, Perplexity and Gemini source you in answers. 085 checks #### Entity Authority Knowledge graph clarity, external reference consistency, entity links. Deep scan · Deterministic ## For those who want proof: six categories, gate rules, same input, same score. Access, schema, product feed, freshness, visibility and measurement are scored as one chain: a site with a flawless feed that blocks crawlers cannot score well. As the scan finishes, the verifiable items in the 189-item checklist below are ticked automatically. A ### Agent access Gate rule OAI-SearchBot and Google-Extended in robots.txt, HTTP status for agent user-agents, JS-free visibility, sitemap. 20 pts B ### Structured data Organization, Product and Offer schema, ISO 4217, availability enum, GTIN/MPN coverage, variant model. 25 pts C ### Product feed Required fields, id uniqueness, GTIN ratio, price format, product link status codes. 25 pts D ### Freshness and consistency Gate rule Sampled comparison of feed vs on-site price, feed reachability. 15 pts E ### SI visibility signals llms.txt, target-market language and hreflang, fact density, FAQ and comparison signals. 10 pts F ### Measurement readiness GA4 and GTM detection, pixel and conversion measurement signals. 5 pts **Gate rule:** If agent access is below 10 points the total score is capped at 40; if feed and site prices disagree, 15 points are deducted outright. 0 · Invisible 1 · Accessible 2 · Feed-Ready 3 · Agent-Native 3+ · Reference 0255075100 | Score | Tier | Meaning | | --- | --- | --- | | 0–25 | Invisible | Agents cannot read the site or understand the product. | | 26–50 | Accessible | Agents can read it, but the data is not trustworthy. | | 51–75 | Feed-Ready | Data is reliable, but visibility and measurement are missing. | | 76–90 | Agent-Native | The channel is live and measured. | | 91+ | Reference | Mature, including governance and trust layers. | #### E-exporter The technical answer to *"I sell to the US, why don't I show up in ChatGPT?"* #### Agencies and freelancers A fast, evidence-grade starting point for client audits and proposals. #### In-house teams A tier assignment and a prioritised first 90 days. **Who it is not for:** For businesses selling only domestically, with no export goal and no product catalogue, part of what is measured has no payoff today, ChatGPT Ads does not target Türkiye and the first wave of agentic checkout was pulled back. The scan still helps with access, schema and measurement; think twice about feed and protocol investment. Checklist · Auditable ## 12 dimensions, 189 items: what should be true, how to prove it, what it is worth. Agents read data, not design. Every item states what should be true, its proof and its weight. Your progress is stored in your browser; the scan auto-ticks the 47 items tagged **auto**, the remaining 142 can only be verified from inside the company. 0% **0** / 189 completed **0** / 438 points Access *→* Readability *→* Data *→* Visibility *→* Protocol *→* Transaction *→* Measurement **Chain rule:** Investment that skips this order is wasted, a site with a perfect feed but blocked bots is never found. Critical items are worth **3 points**, important **2**, maturing **1**; 438 in total. Drop inapplicable sections from the denominator and evaluate by percentage. A B2B firm without a product feed can skip Parts 3 and 5; Parts 1, 2, 7, 8 and 9 apply to everyone. | Percent | Tier | Meaning | Next move | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 0–25% | 0 · Invisible | Agents cannot read the site | Parts 1 and 2 | | 26–50% | 1 · Accessible | Readable, data untrustworthy | Parts 3 and 6 | | 51–75% | 2 · Feed-Ready | Data good, no visibility or measurement | Parts 8 and 9 | | 76–90% | 3 · Agent-Native | Channel live and measured | Parts 4 and 10 | | 91%+ | 3+ · Reference | Mature incl. governance | Pilot leadership | **Critical rule:** A tier is not earned until a part's critical items are complete, with OAI-SearchBot blocked in robots.txt, the effective tier is 0 even at 80%. 0–30 days ### Access and readability All of Part 1; 2.1–2.12; 9.1–9.3 and 9.9 (baseline); 8.1–8.2 (prompt set and first measurement). **Output:** A site open to bots with validated schema, plus a measurement baseline. 30–60 days ### Data and reliability All of Part 3; 6.1–6.4 and 6.7; 5.1–5.3 (unit economics); 12.1–12.2. **Output:** A validated feed, 98% stock accuracy, channel-fit SKU decisions. 60–90 days ### Channel, visibility, governance 4.1, 4.4, 4.5, 4.9; the rest of Part 8; 7.3, 7.5, 7.6, 7.9; Part 10 if exporting; Part 11 review. **Output:** A live product on at least one agentic channel and a written authority policy. **If any of these is true, stop everything else:** - WAF or robots.txt blocks legitimate search and agent bots. - Price or stock differs between feed and site. - Product information renders only via JavaScript. - Fake GTINs generated in the feed, invented barcodes are a permanent account risk. - Fake reviews or AggregateRating present. - Stock accuracy below 90%. - No logging at all for agent transactions. - Commission plus transaction fees exceed margin but the channel stays open. - Domestic budget allocated without knowing ChatGPT Ads does not target Türkiye. - Supplier contract is hourly with no verifiable milestones. - **Not a sales guarantee.** Agentic commerce is primarily a discovery channel today; the first wave of embedded checkout was pulled back. Invest in feed quality and visibility. - **The Türkiye asymmetry is real.** Parts 10 and some of 4 have no domestic payoff today; the value is in e-export markets. - **Measurement is incomplete.** A meaningful share of SI traffic cannot be captured by any setup; the numbers are a floor. - **Protocols are moving.** ACP, UCP and AP2 change quarterly; the list reflects the August 2026 state. - **Treat industry statistics with caution.** "SI traffic converts X times better" claims are mostly single-source; your own baseline is the only valid evidence. Process · 3 Steps ## Not a one-off check; continuous transformation. 01 ### Analysis Current state auditThe site is reviewed across 50+ criteria: SI bot access, content architecture, structured data and technical infrastructure one by one. 02 ### Prioritisation Risk & impact mapGaps are classified by impact; the areas directly affecting SI visibility are clarified and action priority is set. 03 ### Execution Action & roadmapConcrete recommendations for each risk: technical work, content and strategic structuring delivered as a 14-day roadmap.
