Most B2B brands assume that showing up in an LLM response is enough. It's not. There's a real distinction between a "mention" (listed alongside Semrush and BrightEdge with zero differentiating detail) and a "citation" (a specific, verifiable claim a buyer can act on).

The checklist applies to any landing page or product page -- no tool required to audit yourself first.
