The short answer
What is a Perplexity tracker?
A Perplexity tracker checks whether Perplexity cites your brand in the sources it shows for questions in your category. Every Perplexity answer lists numbered citations, so if your domain is not among them you get neither the mention nor the click. CITED runs this as a free instant check and tracks your Perplexity citation rate over time.
Why Perplexity is different
What a Perplexity tracker actually shows you
01
Perplexity is an answer engine, and every answer cites its sources
Perplexity shows numbered citations inline next to each claim. If your domain is not in that source list, you get neither the mention nor the click. Citation is the whole game on Perplexity, and it is visible to the user on every single answer.
02
Perplexity searches the live web in real time
It favours pages that answer the question directly, clearly, and recently. Being citable is not the same as ranking, so pages built for Google keywords often lose to pages built to answer the actual question.
03
Track which buyer questions Perplexity cites you on
See your citation rate across the prompts that matter, which competitors own the citations you are missing, and whether each fix earns you a spot in the sources.
Perplexity vs. classic Google search
Two different scoreboards
Perplexity citations vs. a classic Google ranking
| Aspect | Classic Google search | Perplexity |
|---|
| How you appear | A link in the results list | A numbered citation next to the claim |
| What wins the spot | Ranking signals | Pages that answer the question directly |
| How sources show | Ten blue links | An inline cited source list |
| How you measure it | Ranking position | Citation rate across buyer questions |

Frequently asked
Perplexity tracker FAQ
What is a Perplexity tracker?
A Perplexity tracker checks whether Perplexity cites your brand when people ask it questions in your category, measures how often you appear across many prompts, and shows which sources are cited instead. CITED runs this as a free instant check and tracks the score over time.
How do I check if Perplexity cites my brand?
Enter your website into the CITED checker. It runs the buyer questions a customer would ask Perplexity, detects whether your brand appears in the answers, and returns a visibility score with the prompts where you are missing.
Why isn't my site cited by Perplexity?
Perplexity cites pages that answer the question directly and read as trustworthy sources. If your content buries the answer, lacks clear structure, or is thin on third-party signals, Perplexity will cite a competitor that is easier to quote. The tracker shows exactly where this happens.
How is Perplexity different from Google for SEO?
Google ranks a list of links and you compete for the top spot. Perplexity writes one answer and cites a handful of sources inside it. You are optimising to be quoted in the answer, not to rank on a page, which changes how content should be written.
How often should I track Perplexity visibility?
Perplexity searches the live web, so its citations shift as content changes. Check your baseline now and re-check after each change. Monthly tracking is enough to catch movement and confirm your fixes are working.
Is the Perplexity tracker free?
Yes. The instant Perplexity visibility check is free, with no login or credit card. You enter your website and get your score, the sources cited instead, and what to fix. CITED's hands-on tracking and optimisation across the AI engines is the paid service the free check leads into.
How accurate is one Perplexity check?
One check is a snapshot, not a verdict. Perplexity searches the live web, so its citations shift as content changes. Treat the first check as your baseline and watch the trend across repeated runs of the same questions.
