Please Cite Me! for SEO Agencies: Content Audits and Branded Reports

Getting started - audit an article from a single URL

Please Cite Me! retrieves the page directly from its public URL, so you can start without connecting your client's CMS or analytics accounts. Choose an article that can be read without logging in and try an audit.

1. Enter the article URL on the Please Cite Me! homepage and select Audit. If you are signed out, you will be prompted to sign in.
2. Open the items in the technical audit results to review detected access or page structure issues and recommended fixes.
3. With Pro, select Analyze article content to review the article's topic, answers, organization, supporting evidence, and information value.

The technical audit checks whether the page could be retrieved, along with crawl settings, headings, structured data, and other page elements. If retrieval fails, the findings give you information to share with the person who manages the client's website so they can investigate the settings.

To be eligible for supporting links in Google's AI Overviews or AI Mode, a page must be indexed and eligible to appear with a snippet. Use Please Cite Me! to inspect the page's response and settings, and the client's Search Console account to check its actual Google indexing status. (Google AI features and your website)

Evidence and rewrite suggestions for your content recommendations

The content audit presents scores alongside supporting passages and improvement recommendations. You can compare the findings with the original article to review missing explanations or mismatches between headings and the text beneath them.

Content audit area	What you can review
Topic and search intent	Whether the title and article address the same topic and answer the intended reader's questions
Answer quality	Whether conclusions, reasons, and necessary steps are explained clearly and specifically
Structure and extractability	Whether headings and paragraphs fit together and each section makes sense on its own
Evidence and credibility	Whether important claims have identifiable sources and authors and show when the information was published or verified
Specificity and information value	Whether examples, comparisons, or experience help readers make decisions

Please Cite Me! also shows the question, audience, and purpose inferred from the article. Compare these with actual search queries and customer inquiries to see whether the content serves the readers you intended to reach.

Recommended fixes include an explanation, a suggested approach, and sample rewritten text, giving you a starting point for your content recommendations. Review the relevant passages and headings before choosing which changes to adopt. Where a rewrite includes prices or product specifications, use details verified against the client's current documentation. The content audit analyzes the retrieved article; checking it against external sources remains part of your editorial review.

Scores reflect how the page meets our audit criteria. When reviewing an updated article, look at the assessment reasons and supporting text alongside the score.

PDF reports with your agency's branding

Please Cite Me! lets you share audit findings and recommended fixes in a PDF. Reports include the audited URL and date, technical findings, and the assessments and recommendations from any completed content audit. Use them in client proposals or when discussing revisions with your editorial team.

With Pro, you can add your agency's name or logo in the Report branding settings on your account page. You can also hide the Powered by Please Cite Me! footer to present the report under your own brand.

Select Save as PDF in the audit results, then choose a PDF destination in your browser's print dialog. Complete the content audit before exporting to include its assessments and recommendations in the report.
