# Guides — ASO, GEO, and LLM citation strategy for indie iOS founders

> ASOitis publishes a pillar guide on the discipline split between App Store Optimization and Generative Engine Optimization, with three cluster guides that go deep on each. Every guide is structured for both human readers and AI engines: answer capsule under H1, comparison tables, branded citations, full FAQ section.
