How do I get cited by ChatGPT?

Start by learning which URLs ChatGPT already cites for the prompts you care about, then close the gap between those pages and yours. LLM Pulse extracts every citation weekly, audits your pages for GEO, and recommends the specific fixes with the best odds of earning you a spot.

What is an AI citation?

When ChatGPT, Perplexity, or Gemini answers with sources, each linked URL is a citation. Citations drive referral clicks and signal that a model treats your page as an authority worth naming.

Why does AI cite my competitors and not me?

Usually some mix of crawlability, structure, and third-party authority. The citation gap view shows the prompts where this happens, and the GEO audit tells you which of those factors is blocking your pages.

Do the free tools help with citations?

Yes. The GEO crawlability checker, llms.txt generator, and schema analyzer each cover one technical piece of being citable, free and without a subscription.

How long does it take to get cited?

It depends on the model and your starting authority, so treat any fixed promise with suspicion. Because prompts re-run weekly, you will see movement in the data as soon as a model starts citing you.

Which models can cite me?

Every plan tracks citations across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Google AI Overviews, and Google AI Mode weekly. Paid customers on any plan can add Claude, Copilot, Grok, DeepSeek, and Alexa for Shopping.

What does it cost to track AI citations?

Plans start at EUR 49 per month with a 14-day free trial, so you can map your category's citation sources before paying anything.

Run citations like a channel, not a lottery

A weekly citation number to report, a ranked backlog to work, and a day-zero baseline to measure the whole program against.

Citation KPIs

Citations reported like any other channel

Growth channels earn budget with a weekly figure, and citations are no different. Citation count and citation rate sit on the scoreboard next to mentions and the AI Visibility Score, trended against the competitors chasing the same sources, so the channel review gets one number and the chart that explains it.

Fix Backlog

A backlog ordered by winnable citations

Instead of guessing which page to write next, work a list tied to the prompts where rivals currently hold the citations. Each card names a page to create, update, or restructure, and the queue sorts by what taking that citation back is worth.
