MaverickX

    In short

    IGNITE by MaverickX places real editorial articles on premium publisher sites and drives clicks from those articles to your Amazon, Walmart, Target, Shopify, or DTC store. Because the coverage lives on sites that AI assistants read, the same articles can be cited by ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, and Google AI.

    • Bylined editorial coverage on premium publisher sites
    • Traffic routed to Amazon, Walmart, Target, Shopify, or DTC
    • Content that AI assistants can cite
    • Performance-based — you pay for clicks, not retainers

    The problem

    Traditional PR doesn't convert.

    Big retainers. No tracking. Invisible to AI search.

    Banner ads get blocked

    40%+ of desktop users run ad blockers. Mobile scroll behavior means display ads are ignored. You’re paying for impressions nobody sees.

    AI is the new search — and you’re not in it

    ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude and Google AI are where customers research what to buy. These platforms pull from editorial content. Not ads.

    Press releases don’t convert

    Brand-written content has zero editorial credibility. Readers don’t trust it. AI systems don’t cite it. It’s expensive noise.

    You pay upfront regardless of results

    Traditional PR and media buys charge flat fees. You pay whether anyone clicks, converts, or cares. There’s no performance accountability.

    The fix

    Pay only for real readers.

    Editorial coverage. Per-click pricing. AI citations included.

    01

    Editorial + social, not ads

    Real articles from premium publishers and recommendations from trusted creators driving social traffic. Readers skip ads — they trust editorial and the voices they follow.

    Publishers + creators
    02

    Pay per click — nothing else

    Set your budget. You only pay when a real reader clicks through to your Walmart, Target, Shopify or DTC page — never for impressions or filler.
