Hi all- I have noticed myself that a lot of times these days I am using ChatGPt, Gemini for things I used to use Google for earlier. Having done some research, a lot of buyers now seem to be finding products via ChatGPT, Grok etc! We have historically relied on google ads to capture leads from Google! But the change in trend is worrisome to our business. So I am kinda looking to future proof.
So experts here, Is there a way to rank on ChatGPT & Gemini like you do on Google for questions our customers are asking?

Mostly forums, organic conversations about your products (e.g. Reddit), are the places where LLMs pull from when looking for recommendations. I’ve had clients ask the same thing in my work at a digital agency, so honestly your job is just to keep doing what you’re doing and do it well so people start recommending you organically.
Another option is to start those kinds of forum threads yourself and try to keep them active, but that does require some effort.
I’ve also been looking into this recently. It looks like there are no simple tricks you can do, it’s just good old SEO, so whatever works fine for search engines will also do well for AI.
Umm dont let the marketing gurus tell you otherwise but getting mentioned on ChatGPT, Gemini etc is basically just SEO. And my opinion its easier than traditional SEO. Here is why- behind the scenes all these apps are running extremely long search queries like “What is the best X tool for mid marketing enterprise companies in United States in 2026”! Humans usually dont search on Google with such long queries! This means you can target these extremely long low competitive keyword and easily rank as top result! So if you rank first on Google for that exact query- there is a high chance ChatGPt etc mentions you as well! We have seen this work really well for most of our clients!
Here is a simple workflow. Once you have basic SEO done, go to your google search console, find questions your customers are already searching for using your keyword data, then write blogs on your website answering those questions verbatim. Key here is useful content that answers these questions and consistency. I’d do atleast a blog per week. Most of these can be automated these days as well using AI tools if you are short on time!
Hope this helps 🙂
