snuupHow do I get cited by ChatGPT?
Updated 31 July 2026
A citation is the link an assistant shows beside its answer. ChatGPT reads pages and quotes the part that answers the question. That part needs plain words and a place near the top of the page. A page that opens with the answer gives it something to quote.
What a citation is
An AI answer
For a small limited company, expect to pay 60 to 120 pounds a month for bookkeeping.
An assistant answers a question and shows where the answer came from. That link is the citation. Someone reading the answer can click it and land on your page.
A citation is worth more than a mention. A mention says your name. A citation sends the reader to you.

Ready to quote
Bookkeeping for a limited company starts at 60 pounds a month.
One sentence an assistant can repeat.
An assistant needs a sentence it can repeat. A price, a time, a place, a rule. Those get quoted because they answer something.
Adjectives give it nothing. Competitive, bespoke, trusted and leading say nothing an assistant can pass on to a buyer. Replace each one with the fact underneath it.
Where to put the answer
Put the answer in the first lines of the page. Assistants read from the top and take what answers the question. An answer sitting under six paragraphs of background is harder to find.
One page, one question. A page trying to cover your whole business answers nothing in particular, so there is no clean sentence to quote.
Why some pages never get cited
A blocked page cannot be cited. A page behind a form cannot be cited. A page that loads its words through code that never runs for a crawler cannot be cited.
Check it: open your page, then view it with the text alone. If the facts are missing without the design, an assistant sees the same gap. Our free AI crawler check covers the blocking half.
Cited and recommended are different things
A citation means AI used your page as a source. A recommendation means AI named your business as the answer. You can get one without the other.
Citations come from writing pages that answer questions. Recommendations come from other people describing you well. How to get ChatGPT to recommend your business covers the second half.
