Cot Depot

Cot Depot is a business whose own site puts it this way: "FLAT RATE SHIPPING, Cot Depot is the best source for refurbished Stryker & Ferno stretchers and stair chairs. Buy Stryker and Ferno parts and accessories." To AI engines like ChatGPT and Perplexity, though, it is barely visible: it scores 4.6 out of 10.

On the page itself the strengths are clear: a clearly stated business identity and crawler access and the files AI engines look for. It is passable on some structured data and a workable page structure. What holds it back is sitemaps and entity links AI can follow and credibility markers like credentials or reviews.

Away from its own site, other sites link to it. Beyond that, the domain does not yet read as established, AI engines do not yet recognise it as a distinct business, there is no press coverage to draw on, nobody is discussing it where AI engines look and it does not come up on Reddit. Those are earned elsewhere on the web, not fixed on the site itself.

AI crawlers have visited once in our tracking, including ClaudeBot (Anthropic). The site links to no social profiles, so there is nothing tying the brand to a wider presence.
