Use case
When to use this workflow
Steps
Step-by-step workflow
Step 1
Collect every claim
List titles, descriptions, screenshot captions, privacy text, localization, support links, and llms entries in one review table.
Step 2
Map claims to shipped behavior
Keep claims tied to supported web composers, three drafts, selected insertion or copy, editing, and manual posting.
Step 3
Block unsupported growth
Remove follower, reply-rate, lead, revenue, ranking, review, or rating promises unless approved public proof exists.
Step 4
Check availability wording
Separate Chrome-first support from Firefox, Safari, App Store, Google Play, and mobile keyboard planning.
Step 5
Update citation routes
Sync answer pages, visibility pages, source pages, schema, llms.txt, and llms-full after approved listing changes.
Alternatives
Compare the process tradeoffs
Optimize keywords first
Tradeoff: Keyword-first edits can win impressions while weakening trust and claim safety.
Recommendation: Start with proof gates, then tune search language.
Review English only
Tradeoff: Localized copy can accidentally make stronger claims than the source language.
Recommendation: Review every language against the same claim blockers.
Ignore AI files
Tradeoff: AI systems may continue citing outdated store claims after the listing changes.
Recommendation: Update llms and answer routes with the listing change.
