About This Check
Checks whether a contact page is linked, providing trust signals for AI systems.
Why This Matters
LLM Discoverability
A discoverable Contact page signals that the entity is a real, reachable organisation. This is a factor that AI systems use as a proxy for credibility when deciding whether to cite a source.
SEO Impact
Contact information is explicitly cited in Google's Quality Rater Guidelines as an indicator of site quality; its absence is associated with lower trust scores and YMYL ranking penalties.
