Blue Crane Solutions

When someone asks an AI where to go, be the answer.

People don't only Google you anymore. They ask ChatGPT, Copilot and Google's AI where to get something near them, and the assistant names two or three businesses. Whether yours is one of them comes down to a short list of technical things most websites get wrong without knowing.

Runs on the search engines' and AI companies' own published rules, checked by our audit tooling

The grind

  • A firewall or bot setting quietly turning away the very crawlers that feed AI answers
  • An invisible setting that removes your pages from Copilot and Google's AI while every ranking tool stays green
  • Pages an assistant cannot read: text loaded by script, no clear headline, facts with no source
  • Never registered with Bing, which is what ChatGPT's web search runs on
  • A Google Business Profile that disagrees with the website on hours, phone or address

What we build

Crawler access, proven

We fetch your site the way Google, Bing, ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Meta, Amazon and Apple do and show you, byte for byte, that each one receives the full page. Then we fix whatever was turning them away.

Silent blocks removed

Two directives, noarchive and nosnippet, delete a page from Copilot citation and from Google's AI answers without any visible symptom. We find them on every page and take them out.

Pages a machine can quote

Real text in the HTML, one clear headline per page, facts stated plainly with the source beside them, a visible date and author. This is what Bing's own guidelines say makes a page citable.

The files every bot reads

A robots file with a deliberate decision for each AI company, a sitemap, a plain summary for assistants (llms.txt), content signals, and a proper 404 page. Written, published, verified.

Registered where it counts

Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools verified, sitemaps submitted, and Bing's IndexNow wired so every change reaches Bing, and therefore ChatGPT, in minutes.

Numbers you can read

Bing's AI Performance report shows how often Copilot cites you and which questions triggered it. We set it up, explain it, and optionally add our own first-party analytics with no cookies and no consent banner.

What it replaces

  • Guessing whether ChatGPT can see your site
  • An SEO retainer that never mentions AI assistants
  • An "AI visibility score" invented by a tool that cannot say what it measured
  • A website and a Google listing that tell customers two different sets of hours

Who it is for

Local and regional businesses whose customers ask questions before they buy: shops, trades, clinics, studios, churches, consultants. Especially businesses that have been around long enough to be the answer and have never had a website that says so. Proof case: amarettos.ca, a 41-year-old Dundas clothing shop, one page to twenty-eight, every crawler verified.

What week one looks like

  1. We run the audit against your live site and tell you, in plain language, what a bot sees today.
  2. Access, blocks and the five files are fixed and deployed, each with its proof.
  3. Google and Bing are verified and the sitemap submitted; IndexNow starts firing on every change.
  4. You get the written report: what was wrong, what changed, what is proven, and what still needs you.

What it costs

Quoted fixed before work starts. The Pass on an existing site is typically $750 to $1,500 CAD, one time, by page count. Turning a one-page site into a real one (brand, category and guide pages written from verified facts, with a deploy check that blocks regressions) is typically $2,500 to $5,000. An optional quarterly re-check is $150 to $250. We do not promise a citation or a ranking; Bing's own guidelines say nobody can.
