A useful GEO research result should be traceable from every important claim back to its evidence. This lightweight checklist helps teams review AI-generated answers without freezing fast-changing numbers into promotional content.


1. Open the cited page and locate the exact supporting passage.

2. Check whether the source is authoritative for that specific claim.

3. Record the publication date, update date, sample period, and geographic scope.

4. Distinguish first-party statements from independent evidence.

5. Save the direct URL, retrieval date, evidence note, and confidence level.

6. Recheck dynamic figures immediately before publishing or making a decision.


A source link is evidence only when the linked page actually supports the claim. Search snippets, copied summaries, and page titles are not enough.

The goal is not to collect the largest possible list of citations. It is to maintain a clear, current, and reviewable chain between claims and sources.
