About the Cited Content Pattern Analyzer
Before writing, find out what already gets cited. Ask ChatGPT, Perplexity or Google the question your buyers ask, copy the pages the answer links to, and paste them here. We classify each one (list, how-to, comparison, review, data study, definition, pricing guide, FAQ, case study, tool or service page) and measure length, sections, question headings, tables, figures, sources, author, freshness and extractability. You see the patterns they share, how your page differs, and a six-week plan of pieces in the formats that win.
How it works
-
Step 1
Ask an AI assistant your buyers' question and copy 2 to 6 of the pages it cites.
-
Step 2
Paste them one per line, and add your own page and the topic if you like.
-
Step 3
You get each page's format and measures, the common patterns, your gaps and a content plan.
Patterns, not copying
Cited pages for one question often share a format, such as comparisons with a table or short definitions with examples. Matching the format and the depth, with your own experience and data, works better than imitating any one page.
How formats are detected
From the title, URL, headings, structured data and content measures: numbered headings suggest a list, "vs" a comparison, many figures and tables a data study. Pages can have more than one format; the strongest is shown first.
Frequently asked questions
Where do I find the cited pages?

How many pages should I add?
Four to six give clear patterns. Two is the minimum.
Why add my own page?
