28DIGITAL has a weak AI-visibility profile at 25/100 - a proxy for how readily ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google's AI Overviews can recognise and cite it. Its strongest area is recommendation likelihood (55/100) and its weakest is visibility (5/100). It benefits from a global traffic rank of #260,309 (Tranco), a Moz Domain Authority of 56/100 and open access for AI crawlers (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, etc.).
