Guide library
AI search visibility guides
Read practical workflows for ChatGPT citations, Perplexity source checks, SaaS schema, answer snippets, crawler access, and alternatives pages.
Direct answer
The CiteKit guide library explains how to turn AI search visibility problems into repeatable reviews. Use it to diagnose crawlability, structure product facts, write answer-ready copy, document prompt evidence, and decide when a page needs a tool run, a template, or a manual source review.
How to use the guide library
Pair each guide with an artifact. A guide should not end with a vague content idea; it should help you produce a prompt log, crawler note, JSON-LD draft, answer snippet, comparison brief, or scorecard report. Start with the guide that matches the symptom you can observe, then use the linked tool or template to create something you can review later.
Guide clusters
| Cluster | Use when | Primary artifact | Next page to open |
|---|---|---|---|
| Visibility testing | You need to know whether answer engines mention the brand, competitors, or official pages. | Prompt log and citation review | Visibility checker |
| Technical access | Official pages are missing from AI answers or search snippets despite useful content. | Crawler access note | Crawler checker |
| Structured facts | Product names, prices, features, and FAQ answers are hard to extract or verify. | Schema implementation draft | Schema generator |
| Answer blocks | Important H2 sections begin with positioning copy instead of a direct answer. | Reviewed snippet block | Snippet optimizer |
| Comparison coverage | Competitors appear in alternatives prompts while your page has no balanced comparison asset. | Alternatives brief | Alternatives template |
Reading path for a first audit
For a first SaaS GEO audit, read guides in the same order you would review a live page. Confirm access first, then clarify facts, then rewrite answer blocks, then test prompts, then decide whether a comparison or alternatives page is justified. This order keeps the work grounded in evidence instead of producing unsupported content.
- Start with crawler access and sitemap issues before editing page copy.
- Review schema and entity clarity so product facts are visible to both users and machines.
- Rewrite one high-intent section into a direct answer and proof block.
- Run prompt checks and record cited URLs, competitor mentions, and missing official sources.
- Use a template only when you can fill it with current public evidence.
