How do I get my business named by ChatGPT?
You cannot force an AI to recommend you. You can make your business clear, consistent and well mentioned online, then check the answers regularly to see whether you are named.
Start by measuring
Ask ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot and Perplexity the questions your customers ask, such as “best emergency plumber in your town”. Note whether you are named and which sources the answer cites.
Make your business easy to understand
Use one consistent name, address, phone number and description. Add LocalBusiness schema to your site. Check that your robots.txt does not block AI crawlers.
Answer questions on your own site
Write pages that state who you serve, where, and how. FAQs written from real customer questions give an assistant accurate text to draw on.
Earn mentions on trusted sources
Assistants lean on sources outside your site. Find the directories and review sites that come up for your category and make sure you are listed and described correctly. Avoid bought or fake mentions.
Be realistic
Answers differ from one run to the next. Judge progress by patterns across repeated checks, not a single answer.
