How to get cited by ChatGPT and other LLMs

The short answer

To get cited by ChatGPT and other LLMs, publish clear, factual, well-structured content with extractable definitions and answers, add schema and an llms.txt file, and earn mentions across the web so models learn to associate your brand with the topic.

Why LLMs cite some brands and not others

Large language models surface sources that are clear, consistent, and quotable. Ambiguous, fluffy content is hard to lift; a crisp definition or a direct answer is easy to quote and attribute.

The GEO checklist

Write extractable answers near the top of every page. Add definitions LLMs can quote verbatim. Mark up content with schema. Publish an llms.txt so models have a clean map of your site. Keep facts accurate and consistent across pages.

Frequently asked questions

What is an llms.txt file?

It is a plain-text file at your domain root that gives large language models a clean, curated map of your most important content - the GEO equivalent of a sitemap for AI.

Can you guarantee ChatGPT will cite me?

No one can guarantee a specific citation, but clean structure, accurate facts, and broad mentions measurably increase how often LLMs surface and name a brand.
