Get cited by Perplexity

Perplexity shows its sources on every answer. Perplexity SEO is how you become one of them instead of watching a competitor get the citation.

Perplexity is built around citations — every answer links the sources it trusted. That makes it the clearest window into AI visibility: you can see exactly who gets cited and why. If your competitor's directory listing, reviews or pages are cited and yours aren't, Perplexity recommends them.

To get cited, you need clean structured data, answer-first content, open crawler access, and a presence in the third-party sources Perplexity pulls from.
