SEO veteran finds it near-impossible to get LLMs to cite sources without GEO vendor blogs
lilyraynyc · x · 2026-09-29
SEO practitioner Lily Ray ran an experiment: asking LLMs how they decide which sources to trust without citing any GEO agency/vendor blogs — and concluded it's borderline impossible.
Her favorite example: a citation from geoaiomarketing.com. The takeaway is that AI search citation ecosystems are heavily self-referential to GEO marketing content, making it hard for brands to influence LLM answers without going through these sites.
