# Earn

> Win third-party citations across community, editorial, directory, and peer sources

Earn turns third-party citation data into an execution queue. It helps you decide which external sources to influence when AI engines rely on reviews, communities, directories, editorial sites, marketplaces, or competitor-owned pages.

<Note>
  Earn uses the latest citation-intelligence snapshot. If the page is empty, run visibility analysis first so Anymorph can collect cited third-party sources.
</Note>

## Strategy overview

At the top of Earn, you will see:

| Metric                     | Meaning                                                             |
| -------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Recommended actions**    | Number of prioritized third-party opportunities.                    |
| **Do first**               | The channel and action Anymorph recommends starting with.           |
| **Third-party dependency** | Share of citations coming from sources you do not directly control. |

If there are no actions, Earn shows **No off-page actions yet**. Run visibility analysis to collect cited third-party sources.

## Recommended actions table

The action queue groups opportunities by channel and action type. Each row includes:

* **Channel** - Community, editorial, directory, commerce, review, social, or peer source type.
* **Action type** - The concrete work to do, such as claim a listing, update a profile, seed community proof, or pitch an editorial mention.
* **Priority** - High, Medium, or Low.
* **Citation evidence** - Citation count and share behind the recommendation.
* **Target domains/pages** - External surfaces that matter for AI answers.

## How to use Earn

<Steps>
  <Step title="Check third-party dependency">
    If dependency is high, owned pages alone will not move visibility. Prioritize Earn work.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Start with Do first">
    The top action is selected from the strongest citation opportunity and the available evidence pages.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Work by channel">
    Assign community, editorial, directory, review, and commerce actions to the team that owns each channel.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Measure again">
    After changes go live, rerun visibility analysis and watch [Citations](/dashboard/citations) and [Visibility](/dashboard/visibility).
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Examples

| Finding                              | Earn action                                                                                     |
| ------------------------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Review sites dominate citations      | Claim or update profiles, add current product claims, and improve review response quality.      |
| Community forums dominate            | Publish authentic Q\&A, creator proof, or customer examples that community users can reference. |
| Editorial listicles dominate         | Pitch category pages with data, comparison proof, and unique claims.                            |
| Marketplace/app-store pages dominate | Improve listing metadata, screenshots, reviews, and category placement.                         |
