How to Navigate a Long Article Using the Outline in AmICited
Use the Article Outline in the AmICited editor to jump between headings, see your H1/H2/H3 structure at a glance, and keep long GEO-optimized drafts well organized.
GEO-optimized articles can run long — several thousand words with dozens of sections. The Article Outline turns that into a clickable map, so you can jump anywhere in the draft and see its structure at a glance.

Tip
The heading counts (e.g.
0 H1 · 16 H2 · 47 H3) are a quick structure check. Well-structured, scannable content is exactly what AI answer engines like to quote — a healthy spread of H2s and H3s is a good sign.Where to find it
It’s the Article Outline in the right rail of the Article Editor, below the GEO Score.
What it shows
- Heading counts at the top — how many H1, H2 and H3 headings the article has.
- A clickable list of every heading, each tagged with its level (H2, H3), indented to show hierarchy.
How to use it
- Click any heading to jump straight to that section — far faster than scrolling a 4,000-word draft.
- Scan the structure. The indented list reveals whether your sections flow logically and whether any part is over- or under-developed.
- Spot problems. A wall of H3s with no H2s, or one giant section, shows up immediately here — fix it with the toolbar’s heading controls.
- Keep it scannable. Aim for clear H2 sections with supporting H3s; this both helps readers and makes the piece easier for AI engines to lift.
Think of the outline as both a table of contents and a structure health-check for every draft.
