More and more often they ask ChatGPT or Perplexity, or read Google&#8217;s AI Overview right above the search results. If AI doesn&#8217;t know your business, customers won&#8217;t reach your website even if you rank well on Google.<\/p>\n<h2>Seven steps to get ready for AI search<\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Strong technical SEO.<\/strong> AI search relies largely on the same sources that search engines already index well. A fast, error-free, mobile-friendly site is the foundation.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Clear answers to questions.<\/strong> Add short, precise answers to the questions customers actually ask, such as price, timelines and process, to your service pages.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Structured data.<\/strong> Organization, LocalBusiness, Service and FAQ markup helps machines understand who you are and what you offer.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Consistent company information.<\/strong> Your name, address, phone and services must match on your website, your Google Business Profile and in directories.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Allow AI crawlers.<\/strong> Make sure robots.txt doesn&#8217;t block important crawlers. You can also add an llms.txt file describing your site&#8217;s key content.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Expertise and trust.<\/strong> Show real work: portfolio, client stories, team and contact details. Anonymous sites get cited less.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Mentions in other sources.<\/strong> Articles, interviews and reviews on reputable sites increase the chance that AI will name your business.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>How to measure the result<\/h2>\n<p>Pick ten questions your customers might ask an AI assistant and check regularly whether your business is mentioned. Google Analytics 4 also shows referral traffic coming from AI services.<\/p>\n<p>We can&#8217;t guarantee that ChatGPT will recommend you, but a properly prepared site significantly increases the chance.
