How to make your website appear in ChatGPT answers (GEO guide 2026)

#webflow #ai #seo #tutorial

Most websites are invisible to AI engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews.

Not because of bad SEO because of bad *GEO *(Generative Engine Optimization).

Here's the technical checklist I use to fix that.

What AI engines actually look for

Unlike Google (backlinks + keywords), LLMs select sources based on:

Extractable content blocks (definitions, lists, tables)
Verifiable author signals (E-E-A-T)
Thematic domain consistency
Structured data (Schema.org)

**The technical checklist

Add llms.txt to your root** # llms.txt > [Your site name] — [one-line description]

Priority content

[/blog/your-best-article]: Article title
[/services/your-service]: Service description
