Getting your clients named when customers ask AI
More customers now ask ChatGPT, Gemini or Google's AI Mode who to call. Those tools pull from the same places: the client's website, their listings and what other sites say about them. We work on all three, so the AI has good reasons to name the business.
- The website, the listings, and what others say
- Checked against the same questions every month
- No promises about what AI says
- Your client, 4.9 stars from over 200 reviews, open Saturdays
- Another local business
- A third local business
Three places AI looks. We work on all of them.
AI tools can read the whole site
Plenty of sites block AI tools without knowing it. We make sure they can get in and read the key pages.
- AI crawlers allowed in the robots file
- No key page opted out of Google's AI answers
- Page text that loads ready to read, so AI tools see it without running scripts
Pages AI can quote
AI tools quote short, plain facts. We shape service and location pages so the facts are easy to find.
- A two-sentence answer near the top of each service page
- Business details markup (schema) that matches the Google profile
- Location pages packed with facts: address, phone, hours and reviews that name the town
- Service pages refreshed every quarter with the date showing
The listings AI trusts
AI answers lean on directories, maps and lists. We get the business onto the directories that matter, with the same details everywhere, and we track where it stands on 'best of' lists, local news and community sites, Reddit and YouTube.
- Listed on the directories AI tools actually quote
- Bing Places claimed and matching Google
- The same name, address, phone, hours and website on Google, Bing, Apple, Yelp and Facebook
- Yelp and Facebook pages found and correct
The signals Google's AI reads first
Google's AI Mode and Gemini lean on the Google profile and its reviews before anything else.

The same questions, every month
Each month we ask ChatGPT, Gemini, Google AI Mode and Claude a fixed set of real customer questions. We record whether the business is named, who's named instead and which sites the answer quotes. That tells us which listing or page to work on next.
Example of the monthly check. Made-up results.
| Question we ask | ChatGPT | Gemini | AI Mode | Claude |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Roofer near me | Named | Named | Not named | Named |
| Who can fix a roof leak this weekend? | Not named | Named | Named | Not named |
| Roof replacement in my town | Named | Not named | Named | Named |
| Metal roof installers nearby | Not named | Not named | Named | Named |
Nobody controls what AI says
And we won't pretend to.
No one can promise a spot in an AI answer, and we won't.What we can do is give AI tools every good reason to name the business, and show you each month whether they do.
