Scanning Your Website

Public-web presence — what Common Crawl "Found" and "No match" mean

Whether your site appears in the independent Common Crawl web archive — public presence, not AI training proof.

Short answer

Growthract checks whether your site appears in the independent Common Crawl archive across its most recent index snapshots. "Found" means it's present in at least one recent snapshot; "No match" means it wasn't found in the snapshots checked; "Unavailable" means the check itself couldn't be completed.

What this means

Common Crawl presence is public-web index presence — it is not proof that any AI model was trained on your content, and it doesn't measure AI visibility. Absence of a match doesn't mean your site doesn't exist publicly; it means it wasn't in the specific snapshots checked.

What to do

This is background evidence, not something to "fix" directly — there's no action that guarantees inclusion in a future Common Crawl snapshot. Focus on the checks you can actually act on (technical SEO, structured data).
