Track What Perplexity Says About Your Business

Buyers now ask an answer engine before they visit a website. Perplexity shows the pages it cites, which makes it a good place to see how your business shows up.

You cannot fix what you have not looked at. Once a month, I ask the questions a buyer would ask and write down what comes back.

Step 1

Write Ten Buyer Questions

Use the words customers use, with your city and service.

Prompt to paste
Act as a customer looking for [SERVICE] in [CITY].
List ten questions you would ask an AI search tool before choosing a provider.
Mix comparison, cost, trust and how to questions.

Step 2

Ask Each One and Log It

Run every question in Perplexity. Record who gets named, which pages get cited, and whether your business appears.

Step 3

Find the Pattern

Look at the cited pages. Clear answers, named people, dates and local details tend to show up again and again. Note what your pages lack.

Step 4

Fix One Page, Then Recheck

Improve the page closest to the question, then rerun the same questions next month and compare the log.
