About higgins
from our crawl and measurement
higgins is a Leeds, MA business whose own site puts it this way: "www.higginsinks.com is home to American made drawing ink. Used by professional artists and illustrators since the 1880s, Higgins Ink." To AI engines like ChatGPT and Perplexity it is partially visible, scoring 6.1 out of 10, readable in places, missing in others.
On the page, the fundamentals are in place: structured data on the page (LocalBusiness, WebSite), an llms.txt file for AI models, a sitemap.
AI crawlers have visited the site once in our tracking, so the engines are already looking.
