About Correspondent
from our crawl and measurement
"Skip to main content Facebook Twitter This site (RSS) Languages FrEnEsAr Search form Search AFP Mohammed, where are you?." That is how Correspondent introduces itself. Its AI visibility score is 5.3 out of 10: the engines can find it, but they do not have much to hold on to.
The site gets some of it right: it has a readable heading structure. What holds it back is what is absent, including structured data describing the business, an llms.txt file, a sitemap.

What this score means
