GoogleHow do you get your business mentioned in ChatGPT?
2 min readAI assistants search the web and summarize what they find. You get mentioned if your site answers a question briefly and clearly, if that text sits on the page as plain readable text, and if other sites mention your business too. Nobody can guarantee a mention. The work is very similar to being found well on Google.
More and more people ask ChatGPT instead of Googling. It names a handful of businesses, not ten blue links.
Where the answer comes from
An assistant searches the web, reads a number of pages and turns them into a single answer. It reads the text on your page. Anything that only exists in an image or behind a button, it often doesn't see.
Write the answer down
Answer your customer's question in a few sentences, at the top of the page, in plain language. A passage that makes sense on its own is the easiest to pick up.
Get others to mention you
An assistant trusts a business more if it shows up in several places: reviews, trade directories, an article, your Google Business Profile. Make sure your business name, address, phone number and services match everywhere.
What doesn't work
