Not tomorrow, but more and more people are discovering products, comparing options, and making decisions through AI agents like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and OpenClaw. In this case, they never visit a homepage. They never see a landing page. They just get a recommendation from an AI, and either the brand is in that answer or it isn't. This changes everything about marketing. The question is no longer "how do I rank on Google" but "how do I get cited by an LLM?"
We've been working on this problem at sitefire for the past months, and here's what we've learned so far:
- The content that ranks well in traditional search is often NOT the content that gets cited by AI agents.
- AI models heavily favor third-party sources (press, Reddit, forums) over your own website.
