ChatGPT Optimization Services
Get your business seen in ChatGPT answers before your competitors do.
More and more professionals are using ChatGPT to get quick, trusted answers instead of turning to search engines. This shift presents a unique opportunity: if your business can appear in ChatGPT’s responses, you can reach potential customers at the exact moment they’re seeking solutions.
Visibility here means showing up when decisions are being made, influencing perceptions before a prospect even reaches your website, and capturing interest that may never make it to a traditional search engine. ChatGPT optimization is how you claim that space.
Our ChatGPT optimization services start with a foundational audit, a comprehensive first-stage review that measures your current visibility, identifies where ChatGPT is sourcing its information, and uncovers the opportunities to position your brand as the go-to source for the questions your audience is already asking.

What is ChatGPT Optimization?
ChatGPT optimization is the process of structuring and enhancing your online content so it’s more likely to be cited or referenced by ChatGPT in its responses. While traditional SEO focuses on ranking in search engines, and AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) targets multiple AI-driven platforms, ChatGPT optimization zeroes in on the most widely used conversational AI.
It is about understanding how ChatGPT sources and prioritizes information, then shaping your content to fit those patterns. In practice, we optimize content for ChatGPT and apply ChatGPT AEO tactics so your pages are more likely to be included as sources.
Why ChatGPT Matters for B2B Businesses
Business decision-makers, from marketing managers to CFOs, are increasingly asking ChatGPT for vendor recommendations, market analysis, and solution comparisons. If your competitors show up in those answers and you don’t, you risk losing high-value opportunities. For B2B businesses, ChatGPT optimization means being visible where buying research happens and where shortlists are formed.
Our own investment in ChatGPT visibility has yielded strong lead generation results, reinforcing its potential for clients who act early. Because ChatGPT is still an emerging channel for visibility, the brands that act early have the best chance to secure a dominant presence before the competition catches up.
How We Optimize for ChatGPT
Our ChatGPT optimization services follow a clear process designed to align your content with ChatGPT’s preferences and data sources, applying proven strategies adapted from our broader AEO work for maximum impact.
Foundational Audit - We review your existing assets to see how they measure up against ChatGPT’s answer criteria, highlight where you are already appearing, performing strongly, or missing out on visibility, and identify the primary sources ChatGPT is using so we can develop strategies to get your content included.
Conversational Keyword Research - We identify the natural-language questions your audience asks and map them to business-relevant topics.
Structured Data & Schema - We implement technical enhancements that make your content easier for ChatGPT to understand, reference and rank.
Optimize Content for ChatGPT - We refine or create content to improve clarity, authority, and answerability so your pages are more likely to be cited in responses.
Testing & Refinement - We run real ChatGPT queries, track specific prompt performance within ChatGPT, and measure referral traffic and leads coming from ChatGPT to monitor results and adjust our approach.

Marcel Digital are lovely people to deal with, extremely knowledgeable and approachable and willing to take the time to examine possible solutions that differ from how they would normally proceed.
