Lifted from the August 29–30, 2026 Resonance campaign. Technical doors first, then submissions, then the mention layer that AI assistants actually quote.

Repair SPA fallback 404s
Serve the app shell for any GET/HEAD that is not /api/* or a real static file. Crawlers that omit Accept: text/html must still receive HTTP 200 HTML, not JSON 404.
- • Reproduce live fetch without Accept: text/html
- • Confirm deep routes return 200 HTML
- • Deploy SPA fallback and re-verify 8+ public routes
- • Request Google URL Inspection recrawl
This was the V109 critical bug on resonanse.app — Google rejected /premium and /guidelines as Not found (404).

Welcome AI crawlers in robots.txt
Explicitly allow Googlebot, Bingbot, OAI-SearchBot, PerplexityBot, and declare the sitemap. No submission portal exists for OpenAI, Brave, or Perplexity — they follow links.
- • robots.txt reachable at origin
- • OAI-SearchBot allowed
- • PerplexityBot allowed
- • Googlebot / Bingbot allowed
- • Sitemap declared
Crawler access is table-stakes before mention campaigns matter.

Publish and submit sitemap.xml
Generate a complete public-route sitemap and submit it to Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools.
- • sitemap.xml returns 200
- • All public marketing routes listed
- • Submitted in GSC
- • Submitted in Bing Webmaster Tools
Resonance sitemap: 8 URLs — / /premium /privacy /terms /cookies /guidelines /report /data

Google Search Console campaign
Verify domain property, submit sitemap, request indexing on new/changed URLs. Feeds Gemini and AI Overviews.
- • Domain property verified
- • Homepage confirmed indexed
- • Priority URLs in crawl queue
- • URL Inspection live test successful
New URLs often sit in 'Crawled – currently not indexed' for days–weeks.

Bing Webmaster Tools campaign
Import or verify the site, submit sitemap. Feeds ChatGPT search and Copilot, and partially Perplexity.
- • Webmaster Tools property active
- • Sitemap status Success, 0 errors
- • AI Performance (BETA) report bookmarked
Bing can be imported from GSC via OAuth to save a verification cycle.

IndexNow instant-push
Host the key file at origin and POST changed URLs to api.indexnow.org so Bing, Yandex, Naver, Seznam, and Yep recrawl on deploy.
- • Key file live at /{key}.txt
- • POST all sitemap URLs → HTTP 202/200 Accepted
- • Ping hooked to deploy pipeline (non-fatal)
IndexNow keys are public verification keys by design — not secrets.

Public-page foundation health
Repair the production data and feature surface that public trust pages depend on (guidelines, consent, safety, notifications).
- • Required tables/collections exist
- • Public routes render without server errors
- • Trust features backing press claims are live
Resonance required 6 missing Supabase tables before SafeDate and guidelines could back the public story.

Grok / X live mention sequence
Ship staggered posts from live accounts. Grok's primary source is live X search — there is no webmaster portal.
- • Draft #1 live from at least one account
- • Drafts #2 and #3 scheduled 1–2 days apart
- • Canonical URL present in each post
Vary wording per account. First mentions can surface in Grok within days.

Directory and review listings
Claim Trustpilot, SmartCustomer, Product Hunt, AlternativeTo, and SaaSHub so answer engines have third-party pages to cite.
- • Trustpilot business claimed
- • SmartCustomer registered
- • Product Hunt launch queued (Tue–Thu AM)
- • AlternativeTo listing vs category incumbents
- • SaaSHub submitted
Indexing gets you findable; third-party mentions get you listed in answers.

List on BotCentral (bot search catalog)
Publish a BotCentral 1.0 card so GPTBot, PerplexityBot, Bingbot, and Google-Extended can find the site via botcentral.org/v1/search. CiteFleet is the only publisher; bots never submit.
- • Origin robots.txt and sitemap reachable
- • Card published to BotCentral
- • GET /v1/site/{domain} returns 200
- • Search hit appears for a topic keyword
This is the bot-search listing door. Mentions (Lyra/Vesper/Cassian) are a separate layer.

Press and high-authority citations
Pitch vertical press so every AI system has a high-authority page to quote.
- • Press kit packaged
- • Vertical outlets pitched
- • At least one referring domain confirmed
Resonance targets: DatingNews, Global Dating Insights, Courtland Brooks, Healthy Framework, Mashable.

Crawl → index → cite monitor
Watch GSC, Bing, live HTTP, and inbound mentions. Re-dispatch bots when a check regresses.
- • Weekly GSC + Bing AI Performance review
- • External HTTP 200 sweep on public routes
- • Inbound link / mention log updated
After technical doors close, the campaign is a waiting phase driven by inbound links.
