How to Get Your Company Recommended by ChatGPT and Other LLMs

Want to get your company recommended by ChatGPT? Lureon shows how structured content, entity clarity, and GEO can earn your brand a place in AI answers.

· By Austin Heaton · 5 min read

In 2025, getting recommended by ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and other AI tools isn’t just a nice-to-have, it’s a strategic advantage.

When users ask these models for the best products, services, or solutions, only a handful of companies make it into the answer.

Being one of them means authority, visibility, and trust at scale.

At Lureon, this is what we do.

We’re an agency that specializes for Generative Engine Optimization (GEO), and our mission is clear: to make your company the one LLMs cite, recommend, and trust.

We’ve helped companies across industries turn their digital content into reference-worthy assets, the kind AI models love.

Key Takeaways

  • LLM recommendations depend on structured, consistent, and high-quality content
  • Your brand’s visibility improves when you align with NLP and knowledge graph standards
  • Third-party validation boosts trust and citation rates across AI platforms
  • Clean branding and factual accuracy are crucial for earning AI trust
  • Lureon handles the entire GEO process to help your company become an LLM go-to

How LLMs Decide What to Recommend

Before you can influence the recommendation layer, you need to understand what’s powering it.

LLMs like ChatGPT and Claude draw from a mix of:

  • Web content (blogs, landing pages, FAQs)
  • Structured data (schema, Wikipedia, Wikidata)
  • Third-party sources (news sites, reviews, directories)
  • Internal retrieval systems like RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation)
These models don’t guess, they cite what’s been trained, indexed, and consistently verified across trusted sources.

The higher the quality, consistency, and engagement of your digital footprint, the more likely your brand is to surface in AI-generated responses.

  • Visibility isn’t random, it’s the result of strategic GEO marketing.

What Gets Companies Cited by LLMs

From our work at Lureon, here’s what we’ve found to be key factors:

  • High-authority content: In-depth, topic-specific writing that answers real user intent
  • Entity consistency: Matching company data across your site, social profiles, and third-party directories
  • Semantic clarity: Clean, structured phrasing that makes entity recognition easier for NLP engines
  • Reputation signals: Positive sentiment, brand mentions, backlinks, and third-party validation

Models rely on consensus, which is often dictated by user reviews and third-party evaluations.

The more your company is cited in a coherent, unified way across different sources, the more confidently a model will include you as a recommendation.

The goal is to make your presence unambiguous and your authority undeniable.


Optimize Your Content for NLP and LLM Visibility

This isn’t about stuffing keywords or guessing at Google updates.

At Lureon, we create:

  • Structured content with schema markup
  • NLP-optimized headings and phrasing
  • Pages designed around real prompts people are typing into ChatGPT and Perplexity
  • Entity-rich copy that aligns with knowledge graph data

We align every piece of content with how LLMs parse and retrieve data.

This includes precise sentence structures, defined relationships between entities, and context-rich paragraphs that help reinforce your brand's relevance.

The result is content that not only ranks, but gets referenced.


Create Content That Teaches the Models What You’re About

Every word you publish trains the system.

That’s why:

  • We build long-form articles targeting high-intent queries
  • We write FAQ sections in a format ChatGPT can easily parse and use
  • We align copy with NLP patterns so your business gets cited naturally in AI-generated answers

Your digital presence becomes part of the model’s training material and retrieval pool.

This makes strategic content creation not just a marketing effort, it’s a training loop that defines how the model understands your business.

Done right, this means consistent citation.


Win Citations Through Third-Party Validation

Even the best on-site content isn’t enough if you’re invisible elsewhere.

That’s why we:

  • Secure backlinks from high-authority publishers
  • Help you earn mentions in trusted directories and industry blogs
  • Monitor review sites and forums where your brand is referenced
Cross-channel validation is key.

The more reputable sources confirm your expertise, the more trust LLMs place in your brand.

It's not just about the volume of links, it's about relevance, marketing strategies, and source credibility.

Our job at Lureon is to make sure the web agrees you’re the right answer.


Keep Your Brand Clean, Clear, and Consistent

The AI layer doesn’t tolerate vagueness or inconsistencies.

We make sure your branding is:

  • Factually accurate across all platforms
  • Clear and structured in how products/services are described
  • Free from exaggerated or promotional fluff that gets penalized in NLP parsing

Consistency builds trust, not just with users, but with the models themselves.

Mixed messaging, outdated information, or unclear service offerings can exclude you from recommendations.

LLMs reward clarity and penalize ambiguity, which is why we focus so heavily on brand hygiene.

Tracking What the Models Are Saying About You

With our reporting tools, you get:

  • Visibility into where and when you’re cited in LLM responses
  • Clarity on which pieces of content are driving those mentions
  • Strategic pivots when a topic begins to lose momentum

You can’t manage what you don’t measure.

Our monitoring systems give you an AI-centric visibility layer that shows how your brand lives inside the model ecosystem.

You’ll know which citations are happening, which aren’t, and exactly how to act on that data.
