Simple and strict.
Every citation engineered with measurable principles that AI systems can understand and trust.
Crawlability signals
Accessibility and indexability must be verifiable. Each target page and placement is tested for AI system access and stable discovery.
JavaScript rendering validation
- Server and client render checks
- Prerender and hydration verification
- Dynamic content exposure without user actions
- Resource loading, caching, and latency review
Robot accessibility testing
- robots.txt allow rules and crawl delays
- Meta robots and X-Robots-Tag headers
- Canonical tags and duplicate handling
- Sitemap coverage and freshness
Indexing status verification
- Live HTTP status and header audits
- Canonical target confirmation
- Inclusion checks in major indexes
- Recrawl behavior and change frequency
Content structure analysis
- Headings, lists, and clear sectioning
- Clean URLs and internal path depth
- Schema.org usage for Article, FAQPage, HowTo, QAPage
- Link placement context and anchor clarity
Context and entity fit
Topic depth, schema, and co-occurrence strengthen connection. Citations must feel natural inside the source page and the surrounding site.
Semantic relevance scoring
- Query and topic embedding distances
- Anchor and surrounding text evaluation
- Term frequency and BM25 style hints
- Header, title, and caption alignment
Entity relationship mapping
- Disambiguation against similar entities
- Consistent names, URIs, and sameAs references
- Wikidata and knowledge graph links
- Schema.org Organization, Brand, and Person ties
Topic authority assessment
- Cluster coverage across subtopics
- Evergreen resources and reference hubs
- Editorial standards and source integrity
- Outbound link hygiene inside the host page
Co-occurrence pattern analysis
- Synonyms and surface forms
- Neighboring entities and brand mentions
- Repeated appearances in curated lists and guides
- Clean citation trails across sites
Attention and recall heuristics
Some pages surface in answers more often. Selection patterns are modeled to favor consistent, credible sources.
Consensus signal identification
- FAQ and explainer hubs with steady references
- Curated lists and editorial roundups
- Community answers with strong upvote patterns
- Documentation style pages and knowledge bases
Reference quality metrics
- Page stability and change history
- Author and publication standards
- Outbound reference quality
- Inbound citation diversity
Answer pattern analysis
- Snippet-friendly structure and lead clarity
- Definition and example density
- Table and list presence for skimmability
- Layout that supports short answer extraction
Recall probability modeling
- Historic resurfacing in answer engines
- Recency and update cadence
- Cross-source consistency
- Redundancy across formats and hosts
Monitoring
Persistence and content stability over time are critical. Citations decay without maintenance.
Health status tracking
- HTTP status and load time checks
- Title and H1 drift monitoring
- Schema presence and validity
- Anchor and surrounding text integrity
Content drift detection
- Topical shift alerts
- Structural changes that hide the link
- UGC moderation and thread archiving
- Pagination and URL renames
Performance measurement
- Crawl and index recency
- Referring page activity and traffic hints
- Inclusion in curated lists over time
- Link equity loss and soft 404 risks
Replacement protocols
- Re-earning on equivalent sources
- Context-matched alternatives inside the same site
- Archive references and consolidated redirects
- Escalation for editorial refresh or re-inclusion

Glossary
Crawlability
Ability of systems to reach and fetch a page. Includes robots rules, status codes, and render behavior.
Indexability
Eligibility for inclusion in search and model indexes. Involves canonical alignment and duplication control.
Entity proximity
Closeness of a brand or concept to related terms and entities across text and metadata.
Consensus node
Page type that often appears in answers. Examples include FAQs, curated lists, and evergreen explainers.
Content drift
Change in topic or structure that weakens a citation or hides a link.
