# The Machine Web > The Machine Web is the part of the internet that is no longer built primarily for humans, but > for machines — for LLMs, crawlers and AI agents that read, understand, cite and act. This page > is the reference to it: ten guides on how to get found, understood and cited in this web. A shift is underway: more and more visitors are no longer humans, but language models and agents.
