Where AI gets its answers
The sources AI cites for Creative
When a customer asks ChatGPT, Perplexity or Google's AI for a creative, the answer is built from a handful of sources. Get mentioned on these and you become one of the names it gives. Ignore them and no amount of on-page SEO gets you into the answer.
Measured from real Google AI answers to creative questions asked in Australia, DataForSEO LLM-mentions. The bar is how often each domain is cited in those answers.
