Get listed on the directories AI actually uses
AI tools pull from specific sources — make sure you're in them
Why this matters for your AI visibility
AI doesn't use the Yellow Pages. Each AI tool has its own data sources. Getting listed on the right directories dramatically increases your chances of being recommended.
Step-by-step instructions
Start with the big four
The directories most commonly cited by AI tools are: Google Business Profile, Yelp, TripAdvisor (for food/travel), and Apple Maps. Claim your listing on each one.
Add industry-specific directories
Restaurants: add OpenTable, Foursquare, Zomato. Dentists: add Healthgrades, Zocdoc. Hotels: add Booking.com, Hotels.com. Tradespeople: add Thumbtack, Angi.
Don't forget local directories
Your city or region likely has local business directories (Chamber of Commerce, local tourism board, city business listings). AI tools often cite these for local queries.
