Currently, GoHighLevel has limitations around handling certain standard SEO and web infrastructure requirements. Specifically:
  • Root-level files (e.g., /llms.txt) cannot be served natively
  • Periods (.) are not supported in URL slugs
  • Path-level forwarding across domain variants is limited
These are not configuration issues but platform constraints, which creates friction for users trying to manage everything in GHL without relying on external tools.
Use Case / Problem:
Many modern websites require serving root-level files for SEO, AI indexing, or verification purposes. Additionally, flexible URL structures (including periods) are often needed for compatibility and best practices.
Right now, the only workaround is introducing external layers like Cloudflare or reverse proxies. This adds unnecessary complexity, maintenance overhead, and cost for something that is typically handled natively in most platforms.
Proposed Solution:
  • Allow native support for custom root-level files (similar to sitemap.xml and robots.txt)
  • Enable periods (.) in URL slugs
  • Improve path-level redirect/forwarding across domain variants
