Your Customers Are Asking AI Tools, Not Just Google
More people now ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude or Google's AI Overviews for recommendations: "who builds kitchen cabinets in Surrey", "best physio near Langley". These tools can only recommend and quote what they can actually read. Many small business sites quietly block AI crawlers, hide their content behind JavaScript, or never say plainly what the business does, where, and for whom. AI Search Visibility fixes the technical and content side of that, so your site gives these tools a clear, accurate picture of your business.
02
What's Included
I start by checking which AI crawlers (GPTBot, OAI-SearchBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Google-Extended and others) can reach your site, then set your robots.txt rules to match what you want. I write an llms.txt and llms-full.txt for your business: a plain summary of your services, areas served, pricing and contact details that AI tools can read in one request. I add or fix structured data (LocalBusiness, Service, FAQ, and Product where relevant) and validate it. I check that your key pages show their content without JavaScript, and rewrite the most important pages so they answer the questions customers actually ask. You get a before/after report listing every change, so you can verify the work yourself.
03
Works on the Site You Already Have
You don't need a new website. The work is done on your current site, whether it runs on WordPress, Shopify, Webflow, Squarespace or a custom build like Next.js. Some platforms limit what can be changed (for example, adding files at the root of a Shopify or Squarespace domain). If that applies to your site, I'll tell you during the free check what's possible and adjust the scope and price before you commit.
04
Proof: This Website
webpioneers.ca is set up exactly the way I set up client sites, and every part of it is public. You can read our llms.txt at webpioneers.ca/llms.txt, the longer llms-full.txt, and our robots.txt with its explicit AI crawler rules. Every page also carries structured data you can inspect with Google's Rich Results Test. Every new website I build ships with the same setup by default.
05
What I Won't Promise
Nobody outside OpenAI, Anthropic, Perplexity or Google controls what their AI tools say, and anyone guaranteeing you'll be "recommended by ChatGPT" is guessing. What I can promise is a site that these tools can reach, read and understand correctly, with every change documented. That's the part you control, and it's the foundation everything else depends on.
