How to publish an llms.txt file
llms.txt is a short, plain guide that helps AI assistants understand what your site is and which pages matter.
Why it matters
AI assistants have to guess what your business does from scattered pages. A short llms.txt hands them the facts and the right pages directly, so answers about you are more accurate.
Steps
- Write one paragraph describing your business in plain facts.
- List your 5 to 10 most important pages with one line each.
- Save it as llms.txt and upload it to the root of your site.
- Open yoursite.com/llms.txt to confirm it loads as plain text.
Check it worked
Visit yoursite.com/llms.txt in a private window. It should show your text, not a 404 page or your home page.
