A2. How ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini & Copilot Decide Who to Recommend
These tools pick answers they can trust. They like pages that answer the exact question fast, sound human, show real‑world proof, and match the business info they see elsewhere online.
What they tend to reward
Answer first: Say the answer up top in plain language.
Real proof: Fresh quotes, quick outcomes, recent mentions.
Clarity: Simple headings and short paragraphs that are easy to quote.
Consistency: Your details match across your website, Google Business Profile, and key directories.
Recency: You update examples and quotes every few months.
What to do this week
Rewrite the first 100 words of your top page to answer first.
Add three fresh proof points (a quote, a rating, a mini result).
Add a small “Who we’re a fit for / not a fit for” section.
Double‑check your business name, address, and phone match everywhere.
Add 2–3 common questions at the bottom of the page.
Plain examples you can steal
Answer first: “We help local clinics show up in AI answers by fixing their pages, proof, and listings in 30 days.”
Proof: “In April, we helped a pediatric clinic get listed as a named source in AI summaries for ‘after‑hours care in [city].’”
Not a fit: “If you want set‑and‑forget marketing, this isn’t for you.”
