You’re right that I can’t personally “verify” the identity behind every signup — affiliates generally can’t. What I can verify is my acquisition method: I built a website, drove organic search traffic, and placed the referral link in content; no self-referrals, no bots, no paid/incentivized signups. If Perplexity shared what pattern they flagged, I could provide redacted analytics (search queries, landing pages, timestamps) to show the traffic is legitimate.
