Get the AI citations and backlinks that make AI recommend you.
AI answer engines cite a small set of sources when they recommend tools. If your brand is not in those citations, you do not exist in AI search. xSeek finds the pages AI cites for your topics, then runs a backlink exchange to get you listed, and does the outreach for you.
The basics
What are AI citations and backlinks?
AI backlinks are links and brand mentions on the third-party pages that AI answer engines pull from when they answer a buyer question. A citation on a page ChatGPT already trusts is worth far more than a dozen links from sites it has never read.
Studies now show brand mentions correlate roughly three times stronger than classic backlinks with getting cited by AI. So the game is not raw link count. It is being present, by name, on the exact sources AI reads.
How xSeek earns them
Find the source. Win the mention. On autopilot.
We find the sources AI cites
xSeek maps the third-party pages AI names for your topics, and shows where competitors are listed but you are not.
We find the contact and draft the pitch
For each page we find the right person and write a backlink-exchange email in your voice, ready to send.
We run the outreach and confirm the win
Send from your own domain, follow up automatically over weeks, and mark it won once we re-crawl the page and see your link live.
Link count vs being cited
AI does not count links. It reads sources.
Volume
Buy a pile of links on sites nobody reads. Fine for a 2015 SEO report, invisible to AI answer engines.
The sources AI trusts
Get listed and linked on the exact pages AI already cites for your category, so it starts recommending you by name.
One link from a page AI already relies on beats a dozen from sites it has never crawled. xSeek points you at those pages first, then does the outreach to get you on them.

FAQ
AI citations and backlinks, answered.
What is an AI citation?
An AI citation is any mention of your brand, name or domain on a page an AI answer engine reads and pulls from. AI citations, more than raw backlinks, are what make ChatGPT, Perplexity and Gemini recommend you by name.
What are AI backlinks?
AI backlinks are links and brand mentions on the pages AI answer engines cite when they recommend tools in your category. Being present on those sources is what turns into an AI citation for your brand.
Do backlinks still matter for AI search?
Yes, but not the way they did. AI weighs citations and mentions on sources it already reads more than raw link volume. The goal is to be cited by name on the specific pages AI pulls from, not to buy links in bulk.
How do I get backlinks for AI search?
Find the third-party pages AI cites for your topics, get listed on them, and earn a link or mention. xSeek finds those pages, finds the contact, drafts the outreach and runs it for you.
What is a backlink exchange?
You link to a publisher from a high-traffic page you own, and they add your brand to their list in return. It is a fast, mutual way to earn a placement on a page AI already trusts.
Does xSeek send the outreach for me?
Yes. Send from your own domain, with automatic threaded follow-ups over several weeks, and it stops the moment they reply so you can take over.
Do I need to be technical?
No. xSeek finds the targets, writes the emails and runs the sequence. You approve and reply when someone is interested.
