ChatGPT — the mainstream front door

The largest AI audience in the world. Broad intent, increasingly transactional.

Who's asking

Over 800 million weekly users. Skews younger and more mobile than Google search, but covers every demographic. Increasingly used for shopping, planning, and local recommendations.

How it picks answers

Combines its training data with live web search via Bing. Cites sources inline. Strongly favors well-structured pages and brands with consistent web presence.

How to win it

Make sure Bing can crawl you. Submit a sitemap to Bing Webmaster Tools. Earn citations on third-party sites — ChatGPT trusts what others say about you more than what you say about yourself.
