AI tools can read my page but never quote it

Being readable isn't the same as being quotable. These checks measure whether there's anything on the page a model could safely repeat.

The quick answer

Give the model something specific it can lift. A 2024 study (Aggarwal et al., KDD) tested content edits across 10,000 queries and found adding statistics, quotable statements and cited sources produced the largest visibility gains. Then make each section survive alone, because retrieval hands the model one fragment at a time, not your whole page.

How to fix it

Follow these steps and you'll have it sorted in a couple of minutes.

  1. 1

    Score the content

    The Citability Scorer rates six factors and prints the formula and counted inputs for each, so you can see exactly which one is dragging the score down.

  2. 2

    Add concrete facts

    Replace confident adjectives with measurements, dates, percentages and results. Fact density is the highest-weighted factor for a reason.

  3. 3

    Cite your sources

    Link outward to specs, standards and primary data. The study measured citing sources as a top-two improvement, and outbound links cost you nothing.

  4. 4

    Make every section answer first

    The Answer Snippet Checker judges each section's opening against a 40-word self-contained standard and gives a rewrite target for each failure.

  5. 5

    Check the fragments survive

    The Chunk Preview shows each retrieval chunk in isolation and flags the ones that collapse without their surroundings.

Common mistakes to avoid
  • Writing sentences that only work in context. A paragraph opening with 'It also supports…' is clear on your page and meaningless once retrieved alone.
  • Using phrases like 'as mentioned above'. A retrieved fragment has no above, so the sentence becomes unusable.
  • Burying the answer under a warm-up paragraph. Retrieval judges a passage largely on how it opens.
  • Trusting a score with no stated method. If a tool won't show its arithmetic, you can't tell what to fix or whether it's right.
