Do AI web crawlers index local newsroom answer pages?
A recorded visit by an AI crawler shows that it requested a newsroom Answer Page, not that the page was indexed or will appear in an AI answer. PressGEO tracks crawler activity separately from recorded citation checks.
Crawler purposes differ, and a request alone does not establish how a provider will use the content. Public source-linked pages and feeds make information available for retrieval; IndexNow notifications are submission attempts, not an indexing guarantee. To establish a citation, inspect an actual engine response and its source URL for the relevant question. Keep these observations separate from customer publishing totals.
