常见问题:
My weekly digest emails are going to spam. How do I fix this?
This is a WordPress email deliverability issue, not a CiteBoost GEO bug. By default, WordPress sends email via PHP mail(), which lacks SPF, DKIM, and DMARC — so Gmail, Outlook, and other providers often flag it as spam.
The fix is to install an SMTP plugin and configure it with your email provider (SendGrid, Mailgun, Amazon SES, Gmail, etc.):
- WP Mail SMTP — https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-mail-smtp/
- FluentSMTP — https://wordpress.org/plugins/fluent-smtp/
- Post SMTP — https://wordpress.org/plugins/post-smtp/
Which AI bots does CiteBoost GEO support?
The plugin tracks and manages access for 9 AI bots: GPTBot, OAI-SearchBot, ChatGPT-User, ClaudeBot, Claude-SearchBot, PerplexityBot, Google-Extended, Amazonbot, and Bytespider. The robots.txt fixer ensures all of these bots are allowed to crawl your site.
Is CiteBoost GEO free?
Yes. The free version includes AI visibility scanning for all posts and pages, robots.txt fixes, manual JSON-LD editing, content analysis, bot crawl tracking, and AI referral tracking. Pro adds AI-powered schema generation, citation monitoring, and additional dashboard checks.
Do I need API keys to use the plugin?
No. The free version works without any API keys. Pro users need API keys only for AI schema generation (Anthropic, OpenAI, or Google) and citation monitoring (Perplexity). All keys are encrypted at rest using Sodium.
Will CiteBoost GEO slow down my site?
No. The plugin only runs in the admin dashboard. The only frontend output is JSON-LD schema markup injected in the <head> tag, which is lightweight and does not affect page load speed.
What schema types can the plugin generate?
Pro users can generate Article, BlogPosting, FAQPage, HowTo, LocalBusiness, Product, BreadcrumbList, and other schema types using AI. Free users can paste any valid JSON-LD markup manually. All schemas are validated before saving.
Does the plugin modify my robots.txt permanently?
If you have a physical robots.txt file, the plugin edits it directly. If WordPress generates robots.txt dynamically, the plugin uses a filter. Both methods can be disabled at any time. A confirmation prompt appears before disabling the fix.
