Writing for SEO keywords instead of AI citations

AI cites authoritative claims and structured facts, not keyword-stuffed pages.

Burying key claims in long paragraphs

Put your most citable facts in the first 2-3 sentences. AI often pulls from the top.

Schema markup is free and directly helps AI engines parse your content. Don't skip it.

Always re-query AI engines after changes. Track whether citations improve.
