How to get cited by AI
Being cited by an AI assistant starts with being readable and allowed. These per-platform guides show how each one reaches the web, and what it takes to be a source it can use.
- Get cited by ChatGPT ChatGPT can only cite a page its crawlers are allowed to fetch and can read without JavaScript, so being permitted and readable comes first, and any citation follows from there.
- Get cited by Perplexity To be cited by Perplexity, a page first has to be readable: it must fetch cleanly, carry its real text in the raw HTML before any JavaScript runs, and stay open to PerplexityBot in robots.txt.
- Get cited by Google AI Overviews Google AI Overviews are built from Google's Search index, so getting cited starts with a page Googlebot can crawl, index, and read, and no site can promise the citation itself.
- Get cited by Claude Claude reaches your page through named Anthropic crawlers that honor robots.txt and work from your raw HTML, so being cited starts with being fetchable, allowed, and readable without JavaScript.
