Is ChatGPT recommending you?
Ten prompts to test ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI Mode, plus a simple way to score the results.
Download the PDFWhy CitedBy exists
More and more customers don't search anymore. They ask ChatGPT, Perplexity or Gemini who to call, and the AI names two or three businesses. That shift is moving faster every month, and most small business owners are finding out the hard way.
We think you should be in control of how AI sees your business. Not stuck paying an agency every month for reports you don't understand, and not buying vague promises about "ranking in ChatGPT".
So we do it the other way around. Our guides are free and show you exactly what to fix. If you'd rather have help, we do the work once and show you how it was done, so you can keep it up on your own. You save money and keep growing. A monthly plan is there only if you want it.
"Our goal is a business owner who doesn't need us anymore."

Who's behind CitedBy
I've spent more than five years inside marketing agencies, running Google Ads, SEO and online stores for small businesses in the US and Latin America. I saw how it often works from the inside: monthly retainers, reports full of numbers nobody explains, and clients who never learn what's actually being done for them. I didn't like it.
Now AI is changing how customers find businesses faster than anything I've seen, and the same thing is starting again, with agencies selling "AI visibility" as a mystery. CitedBy is the opposite. We show you exactly what's wrong and how to fix it, we do the work if you want, and you keep everything. If you never need us again, we did our job.

Honest answers
Can you guarantee ChatGPT will recommend my business?
No, and anyone who promises that isn't being straight with you. No one controls what AI answers. What we can do is remove the reasons it skips you today: sites it can't read, vague service pages, mismatched listings, reviews that say nothing. That's what moves the needle.
Do I need to give you access to my website?
No. The audit only uses what's public. For audit + fixes, we can send everything ready for you or your web person to paste in. Access is optional.
Why not pay with Stripe or PayPal?
We're a small, independent team and use the payment providers available to us: a secure card payment link from TropiPay, or USDT. You only pay after we've talked and you know exactly what you're getting.
Will I be locked into a monthly contract?
Never. The audit and audit + fixes are one-time payments. The monthly plan can be cancelled anytime with one email.
Is this only for US businesses?
We work mostly with local service businesses in the US, Canada and Europe, in English. If you're somewhere else, write to us and we'll tell you honestly if we can help.
