## Step 1. Sign Up and Create Workspace

Sign up for Anymorph using the invite link shared via your Slack channel.

Once signed up, your workspace is automatically created and brand information is extracted from your domain.

***

## Step 2. Choose Domain Connection Method

To deploy GEO pages on your brand's domain, choose how Anymorph should route generated pages.

Three methods are supported depending on your platform and DNS access:

| Method                | Example URL                      | Setup                               | Best for                                             |
| --------------------- | -------------------------------- | ----------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------- |
| **Subpath Routing**   | `yourdomain.com/a/page-name`     | Hosting platform rewrite/proxy rule | Most teams and existing websites                     |
| **Domain Routing**    | `yourdomain.com/page-name`       | Root domain A records               | Teams that want GEO pages as first-class root paths  |
| **Subdomain Routing** | `pages.yourdomain.com/page-name` | Subdomain CNAME record              | Fast setup when root-domain changes are not possible |

### Subpath Routing (Recommended)

Subpath routing serves GEO pages under a dedicated path on your existing domain, such as `yourdomain.com/a/page-name`.

Your current website keeps serving the root domain and normal pages. Your hosting platform forwards only the GEO page path, usually `/a/*`, to Anymorph.

<Note>
  We recommend **subpath routing** for most workspaces because it keeps GEO pages on your main domain, avoids root DNS changes, and is easy to roll back from your hosting platform.
</Note>

This option usually requires access to your hosting platform's rewrite, redirect, or proxy settings, such as Vercel, Netlify, Cloudflare Pages, Cloudflare Workers, AWS CloudFront, GCP Cloud CDN, Azure CDN, Framer, Webflow, Wix, Shopify, Squarespace, or a self-hosted server.

### Domain Routing

Change your domain's DNS records to serve GEO pages through the Anymorph proxy. Anymorph acts as a reverse proxy: GEO page paths are served by Anymorph, while all other paths are transparently forwarded to your original site.

**Required DNS records:**

| Type  | Name                         | Value                                                         | Purpose                              |
| ----- | ---------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------ |
| A     | `@` or subdomain             | `99.83.186.151`                                               | Primary server                       |
| A     | `@` or subdomain             | `75.2.96.173`                                                 | Secondary server (high availability) |
| CNAME | `_acme-challenge.yourdomain` | `_acme-challenge.yourdomain.challenges.saascustomdomains.com` | SSL certificate provisioning         |

<Warning>
  Add **both** A records for high availability. Add the ACME challenge CNAME **before** the A records to enable zero-downtime SSL provisioning.
</Warning>

This method requires the **person who manages your domain's DNS** to update the records. Use domain routing when you want Anymorph pages to live as root-level paths and your team is comfortable changing DNS. See [Domain Settings](/settings/domain) for detailed configuration.

### Subdomain Routing

Use a subdomain like `pages.example.com`, `blog.example.com`, or `geo.example.com`. Only one CNAME record is needed, making setup simpler.

| Type  | Name                    | Value                |
| ----- | ----------------------- | -------------------- |
| CNAME | subdomain (e.g., `geo`) | `proxy.anymorph.app` |

<Note>
  Subdomain routing is the fastest DNS-based setup, but it does not consolidate authority on the main domain as directly as subpath routing. Use it when your platform cannot proxy `/a/*` and root-domain DNS changes are not available.
</Note>

If you have any questions during the process, reach out anytime via your Slack channel.

## Step 3. Provide Prompt & Intent Setup Information

To design prompts for AI visibility tracking and GEO page generation, please provide the following information.

### Target Market

| Item                        | Examples               |
| --------------------------- | ---------------------- |
| **Target country / region** | US, Korea, Japan, etc. |
| **Target language**         | English, Korean, etc.  |

### Core Products and Categories

Share your brand's key products/services and their categories. This forms the basis for designing GEO page topics and target intents.

Example:

* Core products: Niacinamide Serum, Heartleaf Toner, BHA Cleanser
* Categories: Skincare, Cleansing, Acne Care

### Key Competitors (3--5)

Select competitors that are mentioned alongside or compared to your brand in AI engines. These are used to calculate Share of Voice (SOV) and analyze competitive positioning.

### Prompt Design

Design questions (prompts) that real customers would ask AI engines. Please provide:

* **Expected customer prompts** (any number): Real questions customers would ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, etc.
* **Core keywords (3--5)**: Essential keywords that should appear in prompts
* **Target customer context**: Customer demographics, key concerns, purchase motivations

Example:

```
Prompt examples:
- "Best toner for sensitive skin"
- "Niacinamide serum brand comparison"
- "Skincare routine for acne-prone skin"

Core keywords: sensitive skin, niacinamide, acne care, skincare routine
Target customer: Women 20-30s, sensitive/acne-prone skin concerns, ingredient-conscious
```

***

## Step 4. Provide Technical Environment Details

To integrate with your existing analytics tools and design an optimization strategy, please share your current technical setup.

| Item                      | What to check                                                                  |
| ------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Google Search Console** | Whether it's connected — enables cross-referencing with search visibility data |
| **Analytics tools**       | GA4, Adobe Analytics, or other analytics tools in use                          |
| **Knowledge Base tools**  | Where brand materials are stored (Notion, Google Drive, Confluence, etc.)      |

***

## Step 5. Share Brand & Content Guidelines

To reflect your brand's tone and style in GEO pages, please share any guidelines you have. Feel free to send whatever internal formats you use.

### Content Guidelines

* **Brand tone & voice**: Formal/friendly, professional/casual — your brand's communication style
* **Content writing guide**: Prohibited expressions, required phrases, terminology rules
* **SEO/content style guide**: Any existing content production guidelines

### Web Page Design Guide

* **Design system**: Brand colors, fonts, logo usage rules
* **Page layout**: Design tone and structure references from your existing website

<Tip>
  No guidelines? No problem. We'll analyze your existing website to automatically extract brand tone and design. However, official guides help us generate more accurate GEO pages.
</Tip>

***

## Step 6. Review Sample GEO Pages & Finalize Knowledge Base

Based on the information you provided, we'll create **sample GEO pages** for your review.

### Review Process

1. **Sample delivery**: We create 2--3 sample GEO pages and share them
2. **Feedback collection**: You review tone, content accuracy, design, and structure
3. **Revisions**: We apply your feedback and adjust page quality
4. **Final confirmation**: You review the revised pages and approve

### Finalizing the Knowledge Base

During the sample review, we finalize the [Knowledge Base](/dashboard/knowledge-base) used for GEO page generation. The Knowledge Base contains core brand materials that AI references when generating pages — product information, FAQs, brand story, etc.

Once final confirmation is complete, onboarding wraps up and regular deployment begins.

***

## Step 7. Start Regular Deployment

After onboarding is complete, GEO pages are generated and deployed on a regular schedule.

### Deployment Process

* **Weekly volume**: 5--30+ GEO pages generated per week
* **Review & approval**: Review generated pages each week and approve
* **Automatic deployment**: Approved pages are **automatically batch-deployed to your connected domain and submitted for search engine indexing**

<Note>
  AI visibility impact from deployed GEO pages typically starts appearing 2--4 weeks after deployment. Track trends on the [Visibility page](/dashboard/visibility).
