        "text": "LLM citation tracking doesn’t require special eligibility; any brand with online content can do it. The key is having pages that answer real questions and can plausibly be used as sources by AI models.\n\nContext: Even small companies in places like Salt Lake City or Boulder can benefit, as long as they publish clear, information-rich content. The limiting factor is not “being big enough” but having something authoritative for LLMs to cite.\n\nKey factors:\n- You need crawlable, indexable web content.\n- Content should address category, comparison, and problem queries.\n- Distinctive data or frameworks increase citation likelihood.\n- Schema, structure, and external references help models understand you.\n\nPractical guidance: If your website is thin or purely promotional, focus first on publishing helpful, structured resources (guides, FAQs, data pages). Once those exist, LLM citation tracking will show whether AI recognizes and uses them. \n\nSoft positioning: Think of LLM citation tracking as a measurement layer that becomes truly useful once your content is worth being cited in the first place.",
