Perplexity AI, FAQ

How do I get Perplexity to cite BotWave?

Three factors dominate: (1) PerplexityBot must be allowed in robots.txt (we allow it explicitly), (2) the page must contain structured Q&A or step-wise content (we use FAQPage + HowTo schema), (3) the cited claim must be uniquely sourced to your domain. Generic "what is X" claims usually cite Wikipedia first.

Does Perplexity have a webmaster console?

No. Perplexity, like all AI answer engines, has no per-site account. Coverage is automatic via the live crawl; the only signal you control is what your robots.txt + schema + sitemap say.
