The objective

What this system is built to do

Win by being referenced, not by chasing keywords. The model cites the source it trusts, so earn third-party citations, don’t just publish more pages.

We win by being cited, not by ranking. Earn third-party citations the assistants already trust and publish canonical, structured facts pages they can quote, then track share of voice in and compound the topics that land. Not doing: keyword-chasing SEO or gated PDFs.

Cycle & hand-offs: Measure share of voice runs monthly and starts the cycle. Hand-offs: Measure share of voice → Prioritise high-citation topics: straight away; Prioritise high-citation topics → Find the roundups LLMs cite: straight away; Find the roundups LLMs cite → Pitch to be included: straight away; Pitch to be included → Publish a canonical facts page: straight away. Any other link waits for a person. Sign-off steps stay with a person; everything else can run on its own once armed.

How it runs

The steps your team follows

The workflow, exactly as it runs inside . It plays through step by step, or pick any node on the map.

Start
1

Find the roundups LLMs cite

Monthly
  1. In , ask the assistants the buying questions for our category and note which sources they cite.
  2. List the roundups, listicles and comparison posts that recur.
  3. Score each by citation frequency and how reachable the author is.
  4. Human approval, pick the 2–3 targets for this week.
2

Pitch to be included

Monthly
  1. For each target, draft a short, specific pitch: the one stat or angle only we can add.
  2. Offer a quote, data, or a screenshot, make it easy to say yes.
  3. Track replies; follow up once after 4 days.
  4. escalate if a top target needs a warm intro.
3

Publish a canonical facts page

Monthly
  1. Build one structured, quotable page in : a clear definition, a dated number and a named source per claim.
  2. Add an FAQ + comparison tables for the “vs” questions.
  3. Mark it up with schema so it's machine-readable.
  4. Link it from the sources the model already trusts.
4

Measure share of voice

Monthly
  1. In , re-ask the category questions across ChatGPT, Claude and Perplexity.
  2. Record how often we're named and whether the claim is right.
  3. Log new citations and any we've lost.
  4. Human approval, which topics to double down on.
5

Prioritise high-citation topics

Monthly
  1. Rank topics by citation lift per hour spent.
  2. Retire topics the models never pick up.
  3. Feed the winners into next week's roundup hunt.

Third-party citations moved the needle

One roundup citation the model already trusts beats five owned pages it ignores. Spend the effort on the citation, not the page.

A canonical facts page worked, but three weeks later

The win is real but delayed: assistants don’t re-crawl instantly. Ship the page, resist the urge to “fix” it in week two, and judge it at week four.

A comparison table won the “vs” questions fast

Comparison queries re-index quickly, unlike canonical pages. When you need a fast GEO win, answer the “vs” question with a table.
