<p><strong>Website LLMs.txt</strong> generates and manages an <code>llms.txt</code> file, a structured, AI-ready index that helps large language models like ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity understand your site’s most important content.</p>
<h3>How llms.txt works</h3>
<p>Traditional sitemaps and robots files guide search engines. But as AI-driven systems such as ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity increasingly ingest web content, they benefit from a clear, structured list of a site’s most important URLs.<br />
    llms.txt offers that: a plain-text or Markdown list of essential public URLs, optionally annotated with titles, descriptions, and grouping, designed for AI consumption rather than general web crawling.</p>
<h3>Key benefits</h3>
<p>✅ <strong>AI discovery readiness</strong> — future-proof your site for AI indexing and content retrieval.<br />
✅ <strong>Fully automatic</strong> — the plugin builds and updates your <code>llms.txt</code> file on its own schedule.<br />
✅ <strong>SEO plugin integration</strong> — works seamlessly with Yoast SEO, Rank Math, SEOPress, and AIOSEO, automatically excluding content marked as <em>noindex</em> or <em>nofollow</em>.<br />
✅ <strong>Advanced controls</strong> — choose post types, customize file titles or descriptions, attach optional Markdown files, and trigger manual regeneration.<br />
✅ <strong>Developer-friendly</strong> — includes filters such as <code>llms_generator_get_post_meta_description</code> for description logic, performance tuning, and custom indexing behavior.<br />
✅ <strong>AI crawler detection</strong> — opt in to track whether GPTBot, ClaudeBot, or PerplexityBot are actually reading your site’s <code>llms.txt</code>.<br />
✅ <strong>WooCommerce & multisite ready</strong> — respects product visibility rules and scales easily across large or networked sites.<br />
✅ <strong>Privacy-first experiment</strong> — anonymous, encrypted telemetry helps reveal which bots are accessing <code>llms.txt</code> files across the web.</p>
<h3>Activation & setup</h3>
<ol>
<li>Activate the plugin.</li>
<li>Visit <em>Settings <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> LLMs.txt</em> to configure post types, update frequency (immediate, daily, or weekly), and optional crawler logging.</li>
<li>The plugin generates <code>llms.txt</code> (and optionally <code>llms-full.txt</code>) and serves it from your site root.</li>
<li>Content updates trigger automatic regeneration. All noindex/nofollow rules from your SEO plugin are respected.</li>
<li>If you enable AI crawler logging, local and global logs record each visit from known AI bots — viewable right inside your WordPress dashboard.</li>
</ol>
<h3>Use cases for llms.txt</h3>
<ul>
<li>Publishers, SaaS companies, developers, and documentation sites that want to make their content easier for AI systems to interpret.</li>
<li>SEO-driven websites teting AI engine optimization tactics.</li>
<li>Agencies and site owners preparing for the next phase of AI search and retrieval.</li>
</ul>
