Why can't AI crawlers see my website?

Most modern websites use Client-Side Rendering (CSR), which sends blank HTML to crawlers. AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity see empty pages because they don't execute JavaScript. They need Static Site Generation (SSG) with pre-rendered HTML.

What is the difference between SEO and AEO?

SEO (Search Engine Optimization) focuses on ranking in Google search results to earn clicks. AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) focuses on getting cited in AI-generated answers from tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Claude. AEO requires static HTML, structured data, and citation-friendly content.

How does cite-met make my site visible to AI?

cite-met converts your CSR site to SSG (Static Site Generation), creating pre-rendered HTML that AI crawlers can read. We also inject critical AEO files like llms.txt, structured data, and optimized sitemaps, ensuring your content is discoverable and citable by AI tools.

Do I need to change my code to use cite-met?

No. cite-met works as a CI/CD pipeline. Connect your GitHub repository, and we automatically convert your site to SSG, deploy it to Cloudflare's global edge network, and inject AEO optimization files. Your original codebase remains unchanged.

How long does it take to see results?

Deployment to cite-met's network takes 3-5 minutes. AI crawlers typically discover and index your site within 24-48 hours. You can track citations and visibility using our analytics dashboard.

Crawler sees: Pre-rendered HTML with semantic structure.

Deploy your site to cite-met and we host it on Cloudflare's global network, convert your client-rendered app into crawler-readable HTML, generate the discovery files AI agents look for (like llms.txt, sitemap.xml, and robots.txt), and track which bots are visiting and what pages they request.

One platform to host, optimize, and monitor. Connect GitHub and ship.

Stop serving blank pages to smart bots.

The core of our platform is the SSG Injection Engine. When you deploy a standard React, Vue, or Lovable app, we intercept the build process and convert your client-side JavaScript into raw, pre-rendered HTML that AI crawlers can ingest instantly.
