Scans and results
Is this SEO?
It overlaps. SEO is about ranking in a list of links; we measure whether AI answers name you and which sources they trust. The fixes are ordinary, honest work on your site and listings that also helps local search.
Traditional SEO tracks where your site ranks in Google's list of links. More and more customers now get an answer instead: ChatGPT, Gemini or a Google AI Overview names two or three businesses and the customer calls one. You'll also hear this called AEO (answer engine optimization) or GEO (generative engine optimization).
Cited measures that answer. Did it name you? Who did it name instead? Which sources did it lean on? Then it tells you what to change.
How it fits with your SEO
- The fixes are the same kind of work good local SEO does: clear service pages, accurate hours and details, structured data and mentions on trusted sites. They help in both places.
- There is no secret AI-only checklist, and we won't pretend there is.
- If you already have an SEO person, send them the fixes. They'll recognise them.
We don't track Google rankings, backlinks or traffic. Cited is a measurement and to-do list for AI answers, not a replacement for your SEO tools.
