We read 28 pages ranking for SEO content agency and 63 buyer accounts. None publishes a revisions count, none states a per-article word count, none dates a result, and one in 28 tells you who owns the content. Here is what the work costs, who writes it, what Google actually says about AI content, and who owns it afterwards.

How Perplexity picks the sources it cites, what PerplexityBot and Perplexity-User really do, and what 30 days of our own Cloudflare data showed about crawler access. A sourced guide to getting cited in Perplexity.

Google requires AI-generated product titles to be declared with structured_title, and silently ignores them if you also send title. The rule, the trap, and whether AI titles actually perform.

Nine of the 13 AI SEO tool roundups we read are published by a company selling one of the tools, and eight of those nine rank themselves first. Not one dates a price. Here are verified 2026 prices read on each vendor’s own page, and what Google actually documents about SEO tools.
Every guide says DeepSeek’s API returns no citations. They are testing the wrong endpoint. The free tracking method, verified tool coverage across 23 platforms, and the referral data on when not to bother.

Google publishes three technical requirements, not twelve. We read the 24 pages ranking for technical SEO agency and none of them quote that list, publish a scope, a turnaround time, or say who implements the fixes. This page does.

Google shipped a Search Console control on 31 August 2026 that opts your site out of AI Overviews, and almost every guide still says it does not exist. What triggers an overview, why one did not appear, and which optimization tactics the evidence actually supports.

We read five published rankings of the best AI SEO agencies and counted every name. Forty-four slots, 30 agencies, and not one appears on four of the five lists. Here is the count, the transparency scorecard, and the number only one of them reports.

What Google actually documents about entities, what it does not, and how to check whether Google has resolved your brand as one thing. Sourced to Google’s own docs, a Google patent and 8 ranking pages.

Most AI visibility advice has never been tested. We read the platform documentation, nine studies and 33 competitor pages, then sorted every tactic by how strong the evidence actually is.
ChatGPT cited brands in 0.59 percent of queries in one independent test. Before you buy a tracker, know what there is to track. Verified prices, the account ban risk nobody mentions, and why the tools disagree.
