ما هو تدقيق الاستشهادات AEO؟ (What is an AEO Citation Audit?)
An AEO Citation Audit is a URL-level analysis of how frequently each page on your website is cited in AI-generated answers, tested across five AI engines in both Arabic and English, and benchmarked against three competitors. It produces citation scores per page, a competitor comparison matrix, and a prioritised action roadmap. It is not a general report on AI trends or a high-level visibility assessment — it is a direct measurement of how specific pages on your site perform in AI-generated answers for a defined set of queries relevant to your market in Qatar.
كيف يختلف هذا عن تدقيق ظهور الذكاء الاصطناعي؟ (How does this differ from an AI Visibility Audit?)
The AI Visibility Audit assesses your domain's overall standing in AI systems — entity recognition, brand associations, authority signals, and structured data. The AEO Citation Audit operates at a more granular level: it tests specific URLs against specific queries and measures citation performance at the page level. The AI Visibility Audit tells you how AI systems understand your brand overall; the AEO Citation Audit tells you which specific pages are earning citations in AI answers and which are not. For most organisations in Qatar, the AI Visibility Audit is the recommended first step, with the AEO Citation Audit following as a page-level deep dive.
ما هو معدل الاستشهاد بالصفحة؟ (What is a page citation score?)
A page citation score is the number of times a specific URL on your site was cited across the full bilingual query set and all five AI engines, expressed as a percentage of the maximum possible citations for that URL. The score accounts for citation frequency across both languages and across all engines, so a page cited frequently in Arabic responses and a page cited frequently in English responses are scored according to their actual citation profiles. All scores are traceable to the raw query-by-query testing log, which is included in the delivery.
ما هو الإطار الزمني؟ (What is the timeline?)
The bilingual AEO Citation Audit for Qatar, including Arabic and English query testing, takes twelve to sixteen business days from query set approval. The query set is built and submitted for review in the first four days. Bilingual testing and competitor mapping take six to eight days. Analysis, roadmap preparation, and document production — including Arabic-language key findings — are completed in the final two to four days.
ما هي التكلفة؟ (What does the audit cost?)
The bilingual AEO Citation Audit for Qatar, covering Arabic and English query testing and all deliverables in both languages, is priced from QAR 11,500 for sites with up to 200 tested URLs. Sites with larger URL sets or requirements for additional competitor domains are quoted individually. All engagements are fixed-fee with no variable components. Payment is fifty per cent at engagement and fifty per cent upon delivery of the final roadmap and executive summary.
ماذا يحدث بعد تسليم التدقيق؟ (What happens after the audit is delivered?)
The audit delivers your baseline, your competitor map, and your prioritised roadmap — implementing the roadmap is the next phase of work. Ignited Nepal offers a content improvement programme for organisations that want structured support acting on the roadmap's recommendations, including Arabic and English page rewrites, structural improvements, and new content production for Qatar's market. Clients who prefer to take the roadmap to their own teams or existing content partners can do so — the roadmap is formatted to be used by any content or digital team. A post-delivery review session is included at no charge within thirty days of delivery.
