The site is The Streamer Agency, and it is ours. We use it as the proving ground for everything citAEOtion does, which means we can publish the data without asking a client's permission. Every number on this page comes from Bing Webmaster Tools or our own crawler logs, and both update daily.
It started when Bing began citing one of our pages. Most site owners would never have noticed. We did, because citAEOtion was already logging every AI crawler that touched the site: which bot, which page, which day, how often it came back. When the citations started, we could see exactly what the crawlers had been doing on that page before and after.
So we worked the winner first. We edited that flagship page repeatedly, checking the crawler response after each pass. It is now cited across roughly fourteen different topic categories, and Bing's report shows 133 distinct real questions being answered with that one page. One page, one hundred thirty-three answers. That did not happen by accident and it did not happen blind.
Then we let the crawlers set the schedule. The dashboard's most crawled panel is the tell. When a page starts climbing that list, the bots are already interested in it, and interest shows up in the crawl data before it shows up in citations. So we work whatever is popping there and move it up the citation list. The second and third pages were both under 1,000 citations when we started. The how-to-start page went from 954 to 1,200. The platform page broke 1,000. Equipment went from 234 to 285. The flagship kept climbing too: 6.6K to 7.1K in the same window.
And underneath it all, the live fetches. In sixty days, ChatGPT reached into the site 3,334 times mid-conversation, pulling pages to answer questions real people were asking right then. That is not a score. That is an AI handing your business to a human as the answer, three thousand times.
Then it compounded. The July 22 snapshot was 10,300 citations. Eleven weeks later, on October 11, Microsoft's report read 42,906: 31,524 new citations in the window after we started working the queue, 15,297 of them in September alone. The flagship page alone stands at 19,300 citations, and the how-to-start page we worked with crawler data went from 1,200 to 11,500. The number of pages Bing cites each day went from an average of 7 in July to 16 in the last 30 days, and the single-day record climbed from 358 to 743. Same site, same loop, no new tricks.
What we changed on those pages stays ours. The method is the moat. But the loop that told us where to aim, when to work, and whether it worked: that loop is the product. It runs the same on a solo site, a brand's content hub, or a hundred client sites.
