You need to know what kinds of pages large language models are citing when people ask about the products and services you offer. To do this, you're going to need a tool. There are about 100 out there. We use peak dot AI. And when you do this,...

Listicles and directory pages can be major sources for ChatGPT/Google AI Mode recommendations; only a subset of relevant listicles may actually be cited.

If you want to get recommended by ChatGPT or Google's AI mode, one of the most important factors is showing up in listicles. These are pages like 10 best blank in your city or 10 best blank in your industry. I wanna talk about the easiest way to get mentioned in the listicles that matter. Because that's the thing. There are hundreds of listicles that are...

s and just asking what it would take to be listed at the top of their listicle. Most of the time you probably won't get a response but occasionally they just want like a hundred bucks which is easily worth it for a highly cited listicle. And sometimes there's an opportunity to do a reciprocal mention. I think this is going to become a very popular GEO tactic once people realise how effective it is.

t algorithm, for example, and Justia rankings are mostly determined by how many questions you answered on their website. Justia also, along with other directories, will let you pay for premium listings, which automatically put you at the top of the rankings. So I recommend using a tool we use Peak Dot AI, determine what that one directory is that ChatGPT loves in your industry and figure out how to start climbing the rankings.
