10 Tips to Make AI Notice You

1

Be Clear About Who You Are

AI can’t recommend what it doesn’t understand. State clearly who you are, what you do, and where you do it. No guessing required.

2

Answer Real Questions

Use Q&A sections and short how-tos that address what people actually ask. The more direct you are, the easier it is for AI to quote you.

3

Keep It Current

Outdated content lowers trust. Refresh key pages regularly with current info and examples.

4

Build Credibility

Authentic reviews, certifications, and media mentions build trust. Respond quickly to feedback. AI reads reputation the same way customers do.

5

Stay Consistent Everywhere

Your name, address, and phone number must match exactly across Google Business, Bing Places, and Apple Maps. Audit quarterly.

6

Write for People and Machines

Use short paragraphs, bullets, and schema markup. Keep it clear and factual.

7

Show Signs of Life

AI looks for activity. Post regularly: customer stories, team updates, quick tips. Inactivity signals irrelevance.

8

Don’t Skip SEO Basics

ChatGPT and Copilot pull from Bing and Google. Titles, metadata, schema, backlinks, and site speed still matter.

9

Create AI-Friendly Pages

Develop pages AI can lift from directly by being concise and breaking up long content. Be the answer AI wants to quote.

10

Track and Adjust

Monitor where and how AI mentions your content. Use tools like Google Search Console or Perplexity to refine and improve.
