The done for you link building agency for SEO teams that already know link marketplaces are a graveyard. Private inventory. 8 layer donor vetting. Built for the AI search era.
Cite is the AI era. When a model picks who to quote, who to trust, who to surface inside an answer, that is a citation. Citations are the new front page. They run through ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, and Google AI Overviews, and they move revenue the same way rank #1 used to.
Line is the old discipline. A link. A backlink. A clean line of authority drawn from one site to another. The thing every serious SEO has been building for twenty years. The asset that compounds when you do it well and burns to the ground when you do it cheap.
Most agencies pick one side. Marketplaces sell you lines. AI consultants sell you citations. Both leave money on the table, because the underlying signal stack is converging. The same editorial mention that moves a SERP ranking is the training data and retrieval input that decides who gets quoted inside a generative answer.
Citeline does both. One pipeline, two surfaces. The same link program that lifts your organic clicks lifts your share of voice inside generative engines. The same 8 layer donor vetting that protects you from Google penalties protects you from being a footnote inside ChatGPT.
The name is also the contract.
If you only need links, there are cheaper places to shop. If you only need AI visibility, there are tools you can rent. If you want the line and the citation, built by the same operators, monitored forever, refundable to the dollar when something breaks, you are in the right place.
Cite the work. Hold the line.
Trusted by in house SEO teams at
Every domain in our inventory passes all eight. No exceptions. Each layer below catches a different category of low quality donor that marketplaces happily resell.
Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT Search, Perplexity, and Claude pull from a different signal stack than classic SERPs. They reward brand mention density, contextual authority, entity co occurrence, and content that AI agents can actually parse.
Our link placements and our content team are engineered for both surfaces. The same campaign that lifts your organic clicks lifts your citation share inside generative engines.
Customer Success Managers at Citeline are SEO operators with 8 to 15 years of in house and agency experience. They study your stack, your competitors, your AI visibility gaps, and your conversion pages, then build a custom 90 day link plan engineered for the highest ROI per link.
Your dashboard shows the truth of every placement. Real anchor text, real traffic, real health status, updated in real time by our crawl fleet.

Built in link health monitor. No extra fee. Forever.
Most agencies vanish after the placement. We monitor every link we ever build, forever, and we put a stopwatch on every failure.
We track link drops, connection problems, anchor text changes, page changes, and noindex tag additions. All of it. Forever.
Public inventories get burned. Shared donor lists get over linked and lose authority. Our 8 layer vetting is expensive, so we only accept clients whose budgets, niches, and ethics match. Roughly 70 percent of strategy call applicants are turned away.
30 minute strategy call. No pitch. We will audit your current backlink profile and AI citation footprint live on the call.
