A record has a date on it or it is worthless. This one has this date.

What that actually means

Every website carries a small text file at the top of it called robots.txt, and it is the first thing an automated visitor reads. Naming a crawler there is a website saying, out loud, that it does not want that crawler taking its pages. It is a request rather than a lock. Companies that respect the file turn around and leave. Companies that do not respect it walk straight in, and nothing on the site stops them.

Find out what happens now

The record says what tradezella.com declared on 7 September 2026. It does not say whether anyone obeyed it. The live report asks the site for its own homepage under three named AI crawlers and tells you what each one was actually served, which is usually the surprise.

If this is your site and the answer above is not the one you wanted, we will set the policy properly for you — robots.txt, Cloudflare and licence terms, done and checked. See what that costs.
