Get Cited in AI Overviews

When someone asks AI for a local business, it names one. That decision comes from your Google Business Profile — your categories, services, reviews, and how consistent your data is everywhere else. We fix the profile, then show you where you stand across six AI assistants and every block of your service area.

AI visibility share of voice for a Portland roofer — named by four of six AI assistantsAI visibility share of voice for a second Portland roofer — named by none of the six

Two roofers in the same market, scanned September 4. One is named by four of six AI assistants. The other by none. Their competitors: all six, every time.

And the same business on the map — visible on its own block, invisible everywhere else.

Straight Answers About AI Search

Why isn't my business showing up in Google's AI Overview?

Google's AI Overview names one business per query, not ten. It picks the business with the most consistent entity signals — matching name, address, and services across your Google Business Profile, your website, and the directories AI trusts. Most local businesses fail on consistency, not effort. Fixing the mismatch is what gets you named.

How do I get ChatGPT to recommend my business?

ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity pull from different sources than Google Maps. Proximity doesn't help you — a competitor two hours away can outrank you if their entity data is cleaner. Getting recommended means publishing consistent, structured business information across the platforms these engines actually read, then keeping it current.

What's the difference between ranking and being cited?

Ranking puts you in a list. Being cited means AI names your business as the answer. They come from the same place: AI assistants and Google Maps both read your Business Profile — your categories, services, reviews, and whether your details match everywhere else. Fix the profile and you're working on both at once.

Three Layers. One Outcome. Get Cited.

We repair the Google Business Profile data AI reads, run the posting, photo, and review work on a set schedule, and build 40+ directories in your name — yours to keep. Three layers, one flat monthly rate, no contract.

Layer 1

AI

Our AI analyzes your GBP in full depth, identifies ranking gaps, generates keyword-optimized content, and targets the exact searches your customers are making.

Layer 2

Automation

The recurring work runs on its own — profile posts on a set schedule, monthly rank tracking, and a geo-grid scan every 30 days. Zero manual work required.

Layer 3

Authority

Everything builds your entity authority — the master signal Google and AI use to decide who gets recommended. The wider your authority base, the more calls you get.

When AI + Automation + Authority align — your business gets cited.

Website included. No setup fee.

The Website Build is included in the $497 monthly rate — no setup fee, no separate invoice. You own your domain and cancel any time. Homepage and core pages go live in month 1; service and location pages follow in months 2–3.

Most agencies charge two or three thousand up front to build the site, then bill monthly on top. We don't. The website is part of the $497 — we make our money on the month, not the build.

No website? We build it.

Have one that's out of date? We rebuild it.

What you get, and when

  • Month 1 — homepage and core pages, live.
  • Months 2–3 — service pages and location pages, built to match your Google Business Profile.

AI assistants read your profile, your site and your listings together. When those three disagree, the assistant names the business it can read cleanly — and that's usually a competitor. A site that matches your profile is what closes the gap.

You own your domain. Cancel any time. No contract, no setup fee.

Common Questions

What is the free AI visibility audit?

A free full-depth Google Business Profile analysis covering categories, photos, reviews, schema, and local ranking signals — plus an AI visibility scan across ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Google AI Mode, Grok, and Perplexity, and a visual geo-grid showing where you rank across your entire service area.

Which AI assistants do you check?

Six: ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Google AI Mode, Grok, and Perplexity. For each query we report your position or "Not found" — so you see exactly how many of the six name your business. AI Overviews are why this matters: AI assistants now name one or two local businesses instead of showing ten links. The six assistants are what we measure and report.

How quickly will I see results?

The free audit is delivered within 24 hours. After that we work on a 30-day cycle — your geo-grid is refreshed every 30 days, so you can see movement across your own service area instead of taking our word for it. We guarantee the work gets done on schedule. We do not guarantee rankings, and no one honestly can.

Will Visibility get me into the top three on the map?

Visibility fixes what your profile and your listings say about you — the data Google and AI assistants read to decide who you are and whether your details line up. That's the layer they read first. The map pack is a different problem: there are three spots, someone is already in them, and when relevance and distance are close the tiebreaker is authority — links and mentions from other sites pointing at you. Visibility doesn't build those. Dominance does. If your grid improves in some squares and stalls in others, that gap is usually authority, not your profile.

Do I need to do anything?

No. CitedLocal is fully done-for-you. We handle all optimization, content creation, posting, and monitoring. You just answer the phone.

What areas do you serve?

We work with local businesses across the US, with deep expertise in the Pacific Northwest including Vancouver WA, Portland OR, and surrounding areas.

Do you build websites?

Yes, and it's included. A Website Build is part of CitedLocal Visibility at $497 a month with no setup fee and no separate invoice. No website and we build one; a site that's out of date gets rebuilt at the same scope as a new build. The plan is homepage and core pages live in month 1, then service and location pages in months 2–3, built to match your Google Business Profile. You own your domain and can cancel any time.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. CitedLocal Visibility is $497/mo flat — month-to-month, no contract, and no setup fee. Cancel whenever you like.

Is the audit really free?

Yes. The full-depth AI visibility audit costs nothing and requires no card — just an email address so we can send you the report.

What makes CitedLocal different from other SEO services?

CitedLocal uses AI-powered geo-grid tracking and automated content systems that most agencies can't match. We show you exactly where you rank block-by-block — and fix the gaps automatically.
