The most important item this week
How to Rank on ChatGPT in 2026: Get Your Business Recommended by AI (8-Step GEO Tutorial)
Most of the checklist is advice. The crawler step is a hard gate. A site that blocks OAI-SearchBot or GPTBot in robots.txt, or whose CDN or firewall rejects them at the bot layer, can be left out of what ChatGPT retrieves, however good its content is. Many owners have never checked those settings, because firewall rules are often set by a hosting or security vendor and never reviewed for AI access. The tutorial also frames measurement as prompts plus referral traffic from chatgpt.com. That gives a business a way to see whether AI systems send visitors at all, instead of assuming its search rankings carry over.
