Many B2B websites have no schema markup, or have generic markup that does not help AI systems understand products, services, FAQs, and organizational entities.

Important considerations
What to keep in mind.
- AI answer engines update their behavior frequently. Recommendations are based on current patterns and should be retested after major algorithm changes.
- Citation readiness does not guarantee citations. It increases the probability that your content is understood and quoted, but AI systems make their own selection decisions.
- Fixes should be prioritized by business impact. Not every gap needs to be closed immediately; focus on pages closest to buyer intent first.
