The Bot Magnetism definition
This is the ability of a website to naturally attract and retain the attention of web crawlers by being consistently helpful, reliable, and structured in a way search engines appreciate. A site with strong bot magnetism builds a reputation with crawlers over time.
How Jason Barnard uses Bot Magnetism definition
We cultivate bot magnetism by publishing useful, structured content regularly, reinforcing helpfulness through semantic clarity, and ensuring the site is technically accessible and consistent across all sources.
