Getting cited

How do I get my brand mentioned in ChatGPT?

Short answer
Get your brand named on the independent pages ChatGPT retrieves when it browses: review platforms, comparison articles, industry round-ups, and forum threads. Your own site alone is rarely enough — models corroborate across sources, so a brand described consistently in several independent places is the one that gets named.

Start where the engine already looks

Ask ChatGPT your buyers' questions and note which domains it cites. Those domains are your target list — not a generic outreach list. If it cites a review platform where you have no profile, creating one is the highest-leverage hour you will spend.

Third-party presence beats first-party volume here. Ten pages on your own site describing how good you are move the needle far less than one profile on a source the engine already trusts.

Give the model something specific to say

Models need a reason to name you over an alternative. Publish and repeat concrete, checkable specifics: who you are best for, what you cost, what you integrate with, what you are certified for.

Keep those specifics identical everywhere they appear. An engine that finds three different prices for you has no confident claim to make, and the safest thing it can do is name someone else.
