Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about CiteWP AI Search Optimizer – Get Cited by ChatGPT, Perplexity & Claude
No. CiteWP scores your content locally on your own WordPress server. No OpenAI key, no Anthropic key, no external account, no per-analysis cost. Other AI SEO plugins make you connect a paid API key just to generate a score — which means every scan costs you money and sends your content to a third party. CiteWP sends nothing. Your content never leaves your site.
No. Scoring runs in the background on post save and on manual recalculation — never on front-end page loads. Crawler tracking adds a lightweight log entry only when an AI bot visits, with zero impact on regular visitor performance.
No. Some tools "optimize" by serving a different version of your page to AI crawlers — functionally cloaking, and a real risk under search spam policies. Others sell manufactured signals. CiteWP does neither. It measures your real content, finds the gaps, and helps you fix them. The same page gets better for AI engines and human readers alike. No separate version for bots, no CDN dependency, no manufactured activity.
Three things: Public rubric. All 17 signals and their weights are documented at citewp.com/cite-score, with a research citation behind every weight. Every other AI scoring tool hides its formula. No API key, free forever. The full feature set runs locally at no cost. No paid key required to see your score. Per-signal recommendations. You get the 3 highest-impact fixes on your site right now, ranked by recoverable points — not just a number.
Yes. The full 100-point rubric is at https://citewp.com/cite-score with a research citation behind every signal weight. You can audit it, explain it to a client, and defend every recommendation.
No, and it's not meant to. CiteWP runs alongside Yoast SEO, Rank Math, SEOPress, and AIOSEO. They handle rankings, meta tags, and sitemaps; CiteWP handles AI citation readiness. Run both together.
An emerging standard that tells AI engines which of your content matters most. CiteWP generates it automatically — the way an SEO plugin generates sitemap.xml — and keeps it current as you publish or update posts.
Yes to both. Cite Score and llms.txt work with any post type, including WooCommerce products. The score and schema tools work in Gutenberg, Classic Editor, Elementor, Divi, Beaver Builder, and Bricks. Crawler tracking is site-wide.
