AI readiness of Indian hospital websites: a 99-site tracker
I tested 99 Indian hospital websites for llms.txt, AI crawler rules and schema. A third publish llms.txt, few mark up their doctors, and almost none block AI crawlers.
A technical and content audit shows why a hospital or clinic website is not getting found, trusted or booked, and what to fix first. For medical sites, Google applies YMYL standards, so the audit has to cover E-E-A-T signals and doctor credentials as well as crawling, speed and structured data. This series covers how to run a healthcare SEO audit, how Google judges medical websites under YMYL and E-E-A-T, Core Web Vitals for hospital websites, Google Business Profile setup for doctors and managing profiles across many hospital units, plus structured data and doctor profile pages. It is written for marketing heads and web teams at Indian hospitals who need a prioritised fix list rather than a long report.
