GEO STARTER KIT by Maxenius. Checked October 7, 2026.
Templates and checks for making a site easy for AI search engines to crawl, read and cite. Every business fact in these files is a placeholder (example.com, Example Co). Replace every placeholder.

Honesty note: llms.txt is optional and Google Search ignores it. Nothing in this kit guarantees citations in any AI product.
