About Doug Turnbull's Blog
from our crawl and measurement
Doug Turnbull's Blog describes itself simply: "Don't fill this out if you're human: Doug's search blog and newsletter Subscribe Learn more Check your email to confirm your subscription Doug Turnbull Consulting · Training Home Doug." To AI engines like ChatGPT and Perplexity it is partially visible, scoring 6.5 out of 10, readable in places and missing in others.
On the page itself the strengths are clear: a clear heading structure. It is passable on a partly stated business identity and partial sitemap and link coverage. What holds it back is credibility markers like credentials or reviews, the technical files AI engines look for, such as llms.txt or an open robots.txt and structured data describing the business.
Away from its own site, other sites link to it, people discuss it in places AI engines read and it comes up on Reddit. There is some, but not much, sign that the domain is only lightly established and press coverage is thin. Beyond that, AI engines do not yet recognise it as a distinct business.
AI crawlers have visited once in our tracking, including ClaudeBot (Anthropic).
