# How to Get ChatGPT to Recommend Your Business

You cannot force a ChatGPT recommendation. You can make a business easier to retrieve, identify, verify, and compare, then measure whether it appears more often.

## Five controllable inputs

1. Earn accurate, relevant third-party citations.
2. Publish structured data that matches visible facts.
3. Maintain authentic reviews on category-relevant platforms.
4. Keep the company name, domain, category, location, pricing, and description consistent.
5. Allow OAI-SearchBot and other relevant search crawlers to reach useful public pages.

These inputs improve accessibility and corroboration. OpenAI does not publish a business-recommendation formula, and none of them is a guaranteed ranking factor.

## Measure the result

Use a technical checker to remove access problems, then freeze neutral buyer questions and record mentions, competitors, prominence, and cited sources. Rerun identical questions after providers have had time to refresh.

## Important limitation

AI answers vary by provider, model, search source, locale, and time. No technical or content tactic guarantees a recommendation, citation, or ranking.
