What the page actually says
- Engines
- Eight named engines, the widest declared coverage in the set.
- Method
- 50+ category queries per service area across eight engines, re-run monthly, with a scoreboard format and a published ten-city study.
- Change over time
- A monthly scoreboard shows a citation-rate movement, but the client is unnamed and the adjacent audit report is labelled as a sample.
- Entity and schema
- An FAQ schema rewrite is mentioned. The stated mechanism is largely seeding Reddit threads, listicles and comparison articles rather than entity work.
- Falsifiability
- Labels its audit report a sample. The headline citation rate is presented without that qualifier.
What we would ask them about
One thing on Ignitvio's own page, worth raising before you sign. Not a judgement about the work.
- AskStates that it seeds Reddit threads, listicles and Quora answers. Effectiveness aside, that is a question about placing material on third-party platforms, and a buyer should decide on it knowingly.
The check we would run on this one
Ignitvio is one of the few here that shows a method, so the useful check is a level deeper than usual. Ask whether the prompt set is fixed in writing before the work starts, whether it stays identical between reports, and whether you can read the raw answers rather than a summary score. A company already publishing this much will have those answers to hand, and the one that matters is the second.
