If you want ChatGPT to cite your brand, SEO alone won't get you there. AI answer engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Claude cite sources that are easy to extract and hard to doubt. Here's what drives citations. First, topical authority. You need more than one blog post. Build a cluster of useful pages around one problem. Second, content clarity. Lead with the answer. Use tight headers. Use lists. Make the page skimmable. Third, factual accuracy. Don't make claims you can't prove. Add numbers, sources, and real examples. Fourth, entity recognition. AI needs to know who you are. Keep your brand details consistent. Add schema.org markup. Fix your directory listings. If you have Wikipedia, keep it accurate. Fifth, recency. Update your best pages often. Date them clearly. The fastest win is this. Rewrite one key page to be answer-first, evidence-heavy, and updated. If you want help, the Star Conspiracy can map your citation gaps and build an AEO plan. Book a consult.
