详情介绍:
GetCited helps your content get discovered and cited by AI systems.
While traditional SEO plugins optimize for Google, GetCited optimizes for the AI-powered future. ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and other AI systems are answering millions of questions daily. Is your content visible to them?
What GetCited Does
🤖 AI Crawler Management
Control which AI systems can access your content. Toggle access for 31 different AI crawlers including GPTBot (ChatGPT), ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, and more. Your settings automatically update your robots.txt.
📄 llms.txt Generator
Create and serve an llms.txt file — the emerging standard for AI discoverability. Like robots.txt told search engines how to crawl your site, llms.txt tells AI systems what your site is about.

常见问题:
What is GAEO?
GAEO stands for "Generative AI Engine Optimization" — the practice of optimizing content so it gets cited by AI systems like ChatGPT and Perplexity. It's like SEO, but for AI instead of traditional search engines.
What is llms.txt?
llms.txt is an emerging standard (similar to robots.txt) that helps AI systems understand your website. It provides a human and AI-readable description of your site, its sections, and key content.
Does this replace my SEO plugin?
No! GetCited works alongside Yoast, Rank Math, or any other SEO plugin. Traditional SEO plugins optimize for Google. GetCited optimizes for AI systems like ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity.
Will this slow down my site?
No. GetCited adds zero JavaScript or CSS to your front-end. The only additions are a small JSON-LD schema block in your page headers and the llms.txt endpoint.
Which AI crawlers does this support?
GetCited includes 31 AI crawlers:
- OpenAI: GPTBot, ChatGPT-User, OAI-SearchBot
- Anthropic: ClaudeBot, anthropic-ai, Claude-Web
- Perplexity: PerplexityBot, Perplexity-User
- Google: Google-Extended, Gemini-Deep-Research, Google-NotebookLM, GoogleOther

Is my data sent anywhere?
GetCited runs entirely on your server. The only external request is to fetch the latest crawler list from our server (a simple JSON file, no data sent from your site).
