Blocked from AI answers

Variety blocks the crawlers behind ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude and Google AI Overviews. A placement still carries reader and search credibility, but it is unlikely to be cited in AI answers. If AI visibility is the goal, filter the directory by AI-citable.

About Variety

Variety (variety.com) has been publishing since 1996 and covers lifestyle for a global readership, in English. It reaches roughly 39M visitors a month, about 6.5M of them from Google search, and ranks for 2.5M search keywords. On authority it has a domain rating of 91, a domain authority of 93 and links from about 271k other websites, and sits at #2,010 in the Tranco global ranking. It blocks the crawlers behind AI answer engines, so an article here builds reader and search credibility but is unlikely to be cited in AI answers. Every placement is quoted per case and paid into escrow; the money is released only when the live URL and a dated screenshot are posted into your case.
