People are increasingly starting their search not on Google, but by asking AI tools a question: "What is the best contractor in Rutland?" or "Find me a chiropractor near me who takes my insurance." If your business is not showing up in these answers, you are invisible to a growing segment of potential customers.
AI tools like ChatGPT and Gemini pull from publicly available information — your website content, your Google Business Profile, review sites, local directories, and news mentions. The more authoritative, consistent, and comprehensive your online presence, the more likely you are to be cited in AI responses.
Make sure your website clearly states who you are, what you do, where you operate, and who you serve. This seems obvious but most websites bury this information in dense paragraphs. Use clear headings, specific service pages, and location-specific content. Create content that answers the questions your customers are asking AI tools.
AI tools pull review data when recommending local businesses. A business with recent, positive, keyword-rich reviews is more likely to be recommended than one with few or old reviews.
