When someone asks ChatGPT "best Italian restaurant near downtown Mumbai" — AI search engines pull from the same local signals as Google. Here is how to be found.
Google Business Profile Is More Important Than Ever
AI search engines increasingly pull from structured data. Your Google Business Profile is highly structured local data. Keep it complete, accurate, and regularly updated.
Local Schema Markup
Implement LocalBusiness schema with name, address, phone, hours, and geo-coordinates. This structured data is ideal for AI extraction.
NAP Consistency
Name, Address, Phone must be identical across your website, Google Business Profile, Yelp, JustDial, and all directory listings.
