SE Ranking: LLMS.txt does nothing – 300,000 domains analyzed
Posted by on March 30, 2026 at 1:05 pmWe analyzed 300,000 domains to find out. Here’s what our data shows.
Conclusion
Our analysis of 300,000 domains shows that LLMs.txt doesn’t impact how AI systems see or cite your content today. Even so, adding the file is a low-effort way to prepare for the next wave of AI indexing. Today it’s optional; tomorrow, it might be essential.

In summary: don’t waste time on LLMs.txt. It does nothing. But not bad to have, just in case.
‘GEO’ bros aren’t gonna like this haha

By that logic, I should swing the chicken over my head to clear myself up since just in case it might help with high rankings tomorrow

I hope you didn’t spend a lot of time on that. Thanks I guess?
