How ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Google AI Overviews and Copilot choose local businesses, and how to measure and improve how often they name yours.
- Oct 31, 2026AI SEO for dentists: get named in ChatGPT and AI OverviewsAI SEO for dentists means making the facts patients ask about easy for AI tools to find and confirm: which insurance you take, which treatments you offer, when you see emergencies, whether you take new patients and that your dentists are licensed. Keep those facts identical on your website, Google Business Profile and health directories, ask every patient for a review, and reply without confirming anyone is a patient.16 min
- Oct 31, 2026How to get your business on Perplexity AIYou can't submit or list a local service business on Perplexity AI. It searches the web for each question and cites the pages it used. You get on Perplexity by being on those pages, which means a website PerplexityBot is allowed to crawl, accurate Yelp and directory profiles, specific reviews and pages that answer customer questions directly.16 min
- Oct 31, 2026How to get your business in Google AI Overviews and AI ModeYou can't sign up for Google AI Overviews or pay to be in them. Google builds them from pages it already indexes, so the way in is the usual Search groundwork: a crawlable, indexed site, pages that answer customers' questions and an up-to-date Business Profile. Reviews and listings on sites like Yelp matter too, because Overviews often cite them.16 min
- Oct 31, 2026How ChatGPT and other AI assistants recommend local businessesChatGPT recommends businesses it finds through web search, after rewriting the question and adding the person's rough location. Perplexity, Google's AI, Gemini, Copilot and Claude work the same broad way but read different indexes and listings. Google's tools lean on Business Profile and Maps, Copilot on Bing, Claude often on Yelp. None documents a paid place in the answer, so being complete and consistent everywhere is the job.16 min
- Oct 31, 2026How to get your business recommended by ChatGPTYou can't register with ChatGPT or pay it to recommend you. ChatGPT searches the web and names businesses it can find and check, so the work is making yours easy to confirm. Let OpenAI's OAI-SearchBot read your site, match your listings on Google, Bing, Yelp and the BBB, ask every customer for a review, publish your licence and answer customer questions on your pages.18 min
- Oct 31, 2026AI SEO for HVAC companies: how to get named by ChatGPTAI SEO for HVAC companies means making your business easy for ChatGPT and other assistants to find and confirm for heating and cooling questions. Publish plain pages for AC repair, furnace repair, heat pumps and maintenance plans, show your state license and EPA Section 608 certification, keep hours and service areas identical everywhere, and ask every customer for a review. Nobody can pay for a place in the answer.16 min
- Oct 31, 2026SEO vs AEO vs GEO explained for local business ownersSEO helps your business show up in Google's normal results and map. AEO, answer engine optimization, aims to get you named in direct answers such as Google's AI Overviews. GEO, generative engine optimization, means the same for AI chat tools like ChatGPT. For a local business, all three rest on the same groundwork of a complete Google profile, matching listings, real reviews and clear pages.17 min
- Oct 31, 2026Why ChatGPT recommends your competitor, not your local businessChatGPT usually names a competitor because it can find and check more about them: more recent reviews, listings that match, a licence record and BBB profile, pages that answer the exact question, and mentions on other sites. Test fairly across several runs, compare your business with theirs on each of those sources, then close the biggest gap first.16 min
