About Common Dreams
from our crawl and measurement
"Common Dreams has been providing breaking news & views for the progressive community since 1997. We are independent, non-profit, advertising-free and 100% reader supported." That is how Common Dreams of Portland, Maine introduces itself. To AI engines like ChatGPT and Perplexity it is one of the more visible businesses we measure, scoring 7.3 out of 10.
On the page itself the strengths are clear: structured data describing the business, a clear heading structure, a clearly stated business identity, crawler access and the files AI engines look for and sitemaps and entity links AI can follow. It is passable on a few credibility markers.
Away from its own site, other sites link to it, the domain reads as established, AI engines recognise it as a distinct business, it turns up in press coverage and people discuss it in places AI engines read. Beyond that, it does not come up on Reddit.
The site links to no social profiles, so there is nothing tying the brand to a wider presence.
