This guide is built for senior operators who need to act fast in 2026. Each chapter ends with a "what to do this week" callout, and every claim is sourced -- internal Dcrayons engagement data, named vendor reports, or industry benchmarks. No fluff, no vendor promo.

1. Why LLMs weight some sources higher
2. Author bylines + expertise pages
3. First-party data + original research
4. Citing the cited: how authority compounds
5. Editorial workflows that build trust
6. The Dcrayons citation discipline
7. About Dcrayons + next step
