Context: a client asked me why ChatGPT never mentions their brand, even when they're clearly the best fit for the query. I didn't have a great answer, so I dug in.

Turns out ranking well on Google doesn't mean much to how AI engines decide what to cite. They crawl differently and evaluate trust signals separately — schema, crawler access, author/org info, content structure. A page can rank fine on Google and still never get cited by ChatGPT or Perplexity.

So I built a checker: paste a URL, get a score out of 100 across 5 areas —

• Crawlable — robots.txt, AI crawler access (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, etc.), sitemap
• Citable — content depth, FAQ structure, freshness
• Structured — schema markup, heading hierarchy, alt text
• Authoritative — internal/external linking, entity schema, llms.txt
• Verifiable — author identity, About/Contact pages, E-E-A-T signals

It also tells you exactly what's failing and how to fix it, not just a score.

I'm still actively finding edge cases and fixing them, so if you run it and something looks wrong or missing, I'd genuinely appreciate the feedback — happy to fix it.

Every time we run a migration (WordPress, Wix, Squarespace → Webflow), the most tedious part isn't the rebuild — it's the redirect map. Hundreds of old URLs, manual mapping in a spreadsheet, copy-paste into Webflow's redirect panel one entry at a time, then realize you forgot to handle trailing slashes or the WordPress /category/ prefix and half of them 404.

So I built a tool that does it for us: thecssagency.com/tool/webflow-301-redirect-generator. Paste old URLs and new URLs, it validates them, catches the common platform-specific traps (Wix's /post/ slugs, Squarespace's /s/, WordPress categories), and outputs a clean map you can drop straight into Webflow's redirect panel. Also exports to .htaccess, NGINX, and CSV if you need it elsewhere.

It's free, no signup, no limits. We built it for our own migration work and figured other people are probably doing the same spreadsheet dance.

A few things I'd genuinely like feedback on before I add more to it:

1. The platform-specific detection — does it catch the URL patterns from your CMS, or are there edge cases I missed?
2. The Webflow output format — does it paste cleanly into your redirect panel, or is the formatting off?
3. What's missing? Bulk-edit? Regex patterns? CSV import for huge maps? Validation against a live sitemap?

If you've run a migration recently, I'd love to know what would've saved you the most time.

Not trying to upsell anything — the tool stays free. We do migrations as a service (Webflow Premium Partner, 150+ sites), but the generator is its own thing and works whether you ever talk to us or not.
