# How to Get Your Link in Bio Cited by AI Search

 AI answer engines now decide who shows up when people ask about you. Here is how to make your link in bio a source ChatGPT and Perplexity can cite.

 People used to Google your name. Increasingly, they ask an AI. They type “who is [your name]” into ChatGPT or Perplexity, and the answer is built from whatever the model can read about you. If your link in bio is a pile of buttons with no readable text, you are invisible to that answer. If it is a clean, structured page, you can be the source it cites.

This is answer engine optimization (AEO), and it is the next version of being findable. The same habits also help Google AI Overviews and other retrieval-based tools.

## Why most link in bio pages are invisible to AI

Three reasons show up again and again:

- **Heavy client rendering.** Many tools paint the page with JavaScript. A crawler may see an empty shell instead of your name and bio.

- **No real text.** A stack of buttons has almost nothing for a model to summarize or quote.

- **No corroboration.** Even a good page is harder to trust if nothing else on the web repeats your name, role, and URL.

If a model cannot read your page, it cannot cite it, and it will describe you from someone else’s words instead.

## What makes a page citable

- **Real text the moment the page loads.** Your name, what you do, and a short bio should be in the HTML itself, not painted in later by JavaScript.

- **Structured data.** Machine-readable markup that says “this is a person, here is their name, role, and links” helps a model (and Google) understand you with confidence.

- **A plain-text summary.** A clean, readable version of your page, like an `llms.txt`, gives answer engines facts they can quote without guessing.

- **Speed and crawlability.** A fast page that allows AI crawlers gets read. A blocked or slow one gets skipped.

- **Consistent identity.** The same name, headline, and URL on your page, social profiles, and any directories or about pages elsewhere.

## A practical checklist

### 1. Write a bio a stranger (and a model) can quote

Use plain language. Include:

- Your name as people search it

- What you do in one sentence

- Where you work or the niche you serve

- One proof point (role, project, city, or specialty)

Avoid emoji walls and hashtag dumps. Models quote sentences, not icon rows.

### 2. Ship HTML, not a spinner

Prefer a page that server-renders your profile. On mypage.cc, public pages are SSR and ship almost no JavaScript, with `ProfilePage` / `Person` structured data and an optional per-profile `llms.txt`. You should not need a developer to be readable.

### 3. Allow the crawlers that matter

Check `robots.txt` on your host. Do not block GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, or Google-Extended unless you have a specific reason. Marketing sites that want AI citations should allow them on purpose.

### 4. Give models a facts file

Site-level `llms.txt` (and a fuller `llms-full.txt`) help tools discover pricing, features, and positioning. For a personal brand, a short about section on the page itself is the equivalent: name, role, links, contact.

### 5. Earn a second source

AI engines prefer claims they can see in more than one place. Put the same one-line bio on:

- Your LinkedIn or X profile

- A directory or community profile

- A guest post, podcast page, or employer bio

One short link plus one third-party mention beats a perfect page that only you know about.

## What to avoid

- **Link-only pages** with no bio text

- **Image-only intros** where your name exists only inside a PNG

- **Password walls** on the public bio URL

- **Conflicting names** (“DJ Nova” on Instagram, legal name only on the page, nickname in the URL)

## How this maps to mypage.cc

We built the public page path for this problem on purpose:

- Readable HTML on first response

- Near-zero JavaScript on the published page

- Structured data for the person behind the page

- Per-profile `llms.txt` for answer engines

- AI crawlers allowed in site `robots.txt`

You still have to write the bio and keep your identity consistent elsewhere. The tool should not be the reason a model skips you.

## Quick start

- Claim [mypage.cc/yourname](https://mypage.cc/login/).

- Write a two-sentence bio with your name and role.

- Add a photo, headline, and the three links that matter most.

- Publish, then paste the same bio line into your main social profile.

- Open your page in a private window and confirm the text is visible without logging in.

The people who set this up now will be the answer when someone asks an AI about their field. Build a page that AI can actually read at [mypage.cc](https://mypage.cc/).
