Editorial Policy

CiteLab is built for readers first. SEO, GEO, schema, and AI-search formatting are used to make useful work easier to find and cite.

Sources and evidence

Articles should cite primary sources whenever possible: official search documentation, platform documentation, transparent studies, public datasets, and direct product documentation. Vendor claims and agency studies can be useful, but they are treated as directional unless the method is transparent.

Expertise and limitations

The strongest articles on this site connect SEO/GEO tactics with first-hand AI, technology, and publishing experience. When an article is based on interpretation, testing, or a limited sample, it should say so instead of presenting the claim as universal.

AI assistance

AI tools may be used for outlining, editing, summarizing source material, or generating implementation drafts. Final claims, structure, sources, and recommendations are reviewed by the author before publication.

Affiliate links and sponsored content

Affiliate links and sponsored posts must be disclosed clearly. Reviews should explain who a tool is for, who should avoid it, and what evidence supports the recommendation.

Corrections

Corrections are welcome. If a factual error is found, the article should be updated and, when the change is material, the updated date should reflect the revision.
