In this episode, we break down exactly what it takes for a local business to show up in Google’s AI Overviews and tools like ChatGPT. AI search has changed the game — old SEO tricks don’t work anymore.

We cover the top 5 visibility signals AI systems look for when deciding which business to feature:

1. Consistent Business Info Everywhere – Your name, address, phone number, and categories need to match across your website, Google Business Profile, and social media.
2. Structured Website Content – AI prefers pages that are clear, well-organized, and written in a simple way it can understand. Think bullet points, FAQs, and headlines that match what people are asking.
3. Active Google Business Profile – AI checks your hours, reviews, categories, and photos. An incomplete or inactive profile is a huge missed opportunity.
4. Indexed Social Media Presence – Yes, Instagram and other platforms are now part of Google’s index. If your business is active on social and your content is consistent, AI models trust you more.
5. Entity Trust Signals – AI looks for signals that you’re real and reliable: reviews, backlinks, mentions, and how often your info is cited online.

We’ll also walk through how AI tools can simulate your business’s visibility and tell you exactly what to fix — even if you don’t know a thing about SEO.
