Is your hotel in Common Crawl?check the crawl that trains the models
Common Crawl is the open web archive behind much of what large language models learn from. If your site isn’t in it, the model can’t know your hotel from training — only from a live search at query time. Enter a domain to see whether it’s in the latest snapshots, and how deeply.
What this checks — and what it doesn’t
This queries the public Common Crawl index for your domain across the most recent monthly snapshots. Being present means the crawl reached you; being absent usually means an AI-crawler block (in robots.txt or, invisibly, at your CDN/firewall), a brand-new or low-connectivity domain, or content that only appears after JavaScript runs.
Training-data inclusion is the slow, upstream layer of AI visibility. For hotels it’s the secondary lever — most hotel answers are built from live retrieval (Google Places, OTAs, reviews), not the model’s trained memory of your website. But it costs nothing to not block, and it’s what lets a model speak to your brand without searching. The two layers are explained in the AI Search for Hotels guide, and crawler-blocking specifically in the robots.txt & AI-blocking study.
Nothing is stored. Each check runs live against Common Crawl’s free index — the same snapshots are immutable, so the answer is reproducible.
