About CNN
from our crawl and measurement
CNN is a business whose own site puts it this way: "View the latest news and breaking news today for U.S., world, weather, entertainment, politics and health at CNN.com." Its AI visibility score is 6.7 out of 10: the engines can find it, but they do not have much to hold on to.
Our crawl found structured data on the page (WebPage). It is missing an llms.txt file, a sitemap and a heading structure that lays out what it offers.
AI crawlers have visited 214 times in our tracking, including OAI-SearchBot (OpenAI), PerplexityBot and GPTBot (ChatGPT).
