FAQ
How does Perplexity decide which sources to cite?
Perplexity uses a real-time web search layer to pull current sources, then ranks them by relevance, authority, and accessibility. Pages that are indexable, well-structured, and load quickly have a clear advantage.
Does blocking PerplexityBot hurt my citations?
Yes. If your robots.txt disallows PerplexityBot, Perplexity can't read your pages and won't cite them. PromptHawk's robots.txt checker surfaces this instantly.
How is Perplexity different from ChatGPT for GEO?
Perplexity is a live-web search engine that always cites sources visibly — so the feedback loop is faster and more transparent. ChatGPT's browsing mode is similar, but its training-data citations are slower to change. PromptHawk tracks both.
