Can ChatGPT find your business?

Twelve checks, one page

• HTTPS and status 200. The home page must load for every visitor and every bot.
• Title and description. A real title with your trade and town, not "Home".
• Mobile viewport. The page scales to a phone screen.
• Tap to call or message. A tel: link, or WhatsApp, LINE or KakaoTalk.
• Business data (JSON-LD). Name, address and telephone as LocalBusiness or a subtype.
• FAQ. A visible questions heading, or FAQPage data.
• robots.txt. Does not block the answer bots of ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude or Bing.
• Sitemap. A readable sitemap.xml.
• llms.txt. Optional. Never scored, and Google does not need it.
• Phone and service area. Both in the visible text of the page.
• Image alt text. Each project photo describes what it shows.
• Page weight. A rough warning when the page is heavy with scripts.

The score leans on checks 1, 4, 5, 7 and 10. It reads one page and is a structural check, not a guarantee that any AI tool will cite you.

What a score can and cannot tell you

It shows whether the facts that search and AI engines look for are on your page, and whether bots are allowed to read them. It does not read your prices, reviews or work, and it cannot see your competitors.

A low score is a to-do list. A high score means the basics are readable. It does not mean an AI tool will recommend you.
