Get Your Business Cited by AI Search
Make your business the primary source that Microsoft Copilot, Bing AI, ChatGPT, and Google AI Overviews quote and recommend.
Direct Answer / Service Definition
The AI Citation Service by Tygart Media is a specialized Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) implementation that restructures business websites into standalone citable answer packets, Schema.org entities, and factual knowledge graphs. This enables answer engines—including Microsoft Copilot, Bing AI, Perplexity, and ChatGPT—to directly quote, cite, and recommend your business for high-intent trade queries.
What this is
When someone asks Microsoft Copilot or Bing AI a question in your trade, the answer often comes with cited sources. If your business isn’t one of them, you’re invisible in the fastest-growing search surface there is.
We make your business the one AI cites. The proof: Will Tygart and the Tygart Media team built an experimental site for a new F1 track — with small organic traffic and just 144 Bing clicks — which earned 3,218 Bing AI citations through September 8, 2026. Small clicks. Big citations. That’s the pattern, and it’s repeatable across local and commercial service businesses.

How it works
- Citation audit — we check where your business stands right now: what Copilot and Bing AI say about your trade, who they cite instead of you, and the gaps.
- Content rebuild — we build or rebuild your key pages in the format AI actually lifts: direct answers, clear structure, FAQ sections, official facts only. No fluff, no keyword stuffing — the stuff that gets quoted.
- Technical foundation — clean site structure, proper Schema.org JSON-LD markup, and pages organized so crawlers and AI systems can parse them confidently.
- Measurement — we report from your Bing Webmaster Tools AI Performance data: citations earned, queries you’re cited for, and what’s climbing.
Who it’s for
Restoration contractors, home-service companies, and any local business whose customers research before they call. If your buyers ask questions first — and they do — this is where those questions get answered now.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is this different from SEO?
Traditional SEO chases clicks and rankings. This chases citations — being the quoted source inside AI answers. The traffic is smaller; the authority is bigger. Our experiment proved a small site can out-cite big ones.
How long until we see citations?
Measured in weeks, not days. AI systems need to crawl, index, and build trust in your pages. We report monthly from your actual Bing Webmaster Tools data — no vanity metrics.
Do we need a new website?
Usually not. Most businesses need their existing pages rebuilt in citable format, plus a few new ones for the questions AI gets asked most in their trade.
What does the AI Citation Service cost?
Start with a free AI-citation check — we’ll show you where you stand today and who’s getting cited instead of you. The fix is quoted per project after that, based on how much rebuilding your site needs.
