Frequently asked
When should I expect to see citations show up?
Standard generative engine optimization timeline is 3 to 6 months from sustained Reddit and earned-media presence to first reliable AI citations on your category. Faster categories (newer software, less competition) sometimes show citations by month 2. Slower categories (mature enterprise software, heavily astroturfed verticals) take closer to 6. Anyone promising 30-day AI citation results is either lying or running tactics that get accounts banned.
What does the monthly citation report look like?
A dashboard plus a written commentary. Dashboard tracks citation count, citation share against named competitors, source attribution (which threads drive your citations), and citation quality (recommended vs. mentioned-without-context). Written commentary explains what shifted and why, plus the planned moves for the next month.
What's the minimum engagement length?
Six months. AI citation work compounds; the first three months are mostly foundation and earning trust on the right subreddits, the second three are when citations start landing. Shorter engagements are available for diagnostic or pilot work, but not for the ongoing track.
