Why isn't my website showing in ChatGPT?

ChatGPT and other AI engines build answers from sites that carry special markup in their code. Without it, the AI doesn't understand what your business does and leaves your site out of its answers — even if you rank #1 on Google. Check for free with SEOFetcher: find out whether AI can see your site right now.

How do I check if AI can see my website — for free?

AI engines use structured data, organization info and location signals to build answers. You can check your site's readiness for free in SEOFetcher — no sign-up, results in 30 seconds.

Why do competitors appear in AI answers but not me?

Most likely your competitor's site has the special markup that yours is missing. It's a technical advantage you can close — just ask your developer once to add the right code based on the SEOFetcher report.

Do I need to rebuild my website?

No. AI visibility does not require rebuilding your site. A developer adds markup to the code based on the report recommendations — a one-time job of a few hours, not a rebuild.

How long until AI starts showing my website?

After the markup is added, AI engines and search engines re-crawl your site — usually 2–4 weeks. The first changes in ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Claude answers appear within 1–3 months.

How does AI see a website — how does it actually work?

AI engines scan sites through crawlers and read the structured markup in the code. When a customer asks ChatGPT "recommend a good dentist", the AI finds sites with the right markup and names them. Sites without markup simply go unnoticed — as if they didn't exist.

My site isn't visible to AI — what should I do?

The first step is to find out exactly what's missing. SEOFetcher shows a free list of concrete issues: what your site already has and what needs to be added to appear in ChatGPT, Perplexity and Gemini answers. Then hand the list to a developer or fix it yourself.

How to check a website for AI — which tool to use?

SEOFetcher is a free online tool for checking your site's AI readiness. Enter a URL — get a report in 30 seconds. No sign-up. It shows exactly what's keeping your site out of ChatGPT, Perplexity and Gemini answers.

How do I get my business into ChatGPT answers — where to start?

Start with the check on this page: see whether ChatGPT already sees the site. The longer walkthrough is in How to get into ChatGPT answers. Here the job is shorter: see the gaps and close them. https://seofetcher.com/blog/kak-popast-v-otvety-chatgpt

How to make a website visible to AI — do I need a programmer?

Adding the markup is technical work on the site's code, so a developer is needed. But figuring out what to add is something you can do yourself: SEOFetcher gives a concrete list of recommendations that you simply pass to your developer. No technical knowledge required on your part.

I'm not in ChatGPT answers — can this be fixed?

Yes. Being absent from ChatGPT and other AI answers is a technical problem solved by adding markup to the site's code. It's a one-time job, not a recurring one. Once it's in, AI engines start seeing the site and gradually include it in answers — usually within 1–3 months.

What is website promotion in AI answers?

It means ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Claude start naming your company when someone asks. It starts with a free check of what the site already shows, not with an agency contract.

How do I check whether AI engines can see the site?

Enter the address in the form on this page. The check is free, needs no sign-up, and takes about 30 seconds. The report says, in plain language, where there is enough, where it is only partly there, and where it is missing.

What is AI website visibility?

It is whether AI names your business in an answer, not whether you rank first in Google. A site can lead regular search and still be missing when someone asks ChatGPT.

Does AI see your website?

Name: Does AI see your website — free check
Availability: InStock
Author: SEOFetcher

ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Claude already answer your customers and name specific companies. If your business isn’t in those answers, AI recommends a competitor. Check right now — no sign-up and no technical knowledge.

This is where getting into AI answers starts: a free check first.

Website visibility in AI answers

AI visibility means you are named in the answer, not that you rank first in Google. A customer asks ChatGPT for an accountant and gets specific companies. Perplexity, Gemini and Claude answer the same way. If yours is missing, that customer is gone. That is the case when AI recommends a competitor. Classic SEO does not close this gap.

Who makes the changes on the site

The check shows what’s missing. After that you can fix the site yourself, send it to an agency, or ask us to do it.

Do it yourself

The report says what to change on the site. If you’d rather not hire anyone, the blog has a shorter checklist of the same work.

Open the checklist

Send it to an agency

Forward the report or the presentation to whoever looks after the site. The changes are already listed, so you don’t have to explain the task again. Agencies usually charge 15–40 thousand rubles to install the edits. That is the work on the site, not the check.

Order it from us

The SEOFetcher team gathers what’s missing and puts it on the site. A one-time install, from 11,900 ₽. The exact amount depends on the site. The check itself is free.

The site is not visible to AI — what to do

If the site is missing from AI answers, the order is the same: see the gap, check the address, close the items in the report, wait for a fresh crawl. The longer walkthrough is in how to get into ChatGPT answers. This page is the check.

Step 1

Why AI does not see the site

Usually the page never says plainly who you are and which customer question you answer. AI then names whoever wrote that more clearly.

Step 2

The check

The form above reads the site and lays the result out as six cards: reputation, business card, voice search, answers, how you appear, and phone and address.

Step 3

How to make the site visible to AI

This is not a monthly retainer. You add what the report says is missing. The site does not need a rebuild.

Step 4

When your name can show up

After the edits, a fresh crawl usually takes 2–4 weeks. The first changes in ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Claude answers more often appear within 1–3 months.

An AI-readiness check: agency or yourself

Agencies charge $500–$3,000 to say whether a site is ready for AI answers. The same check here is free. Installing the edits is a different bill: agencies usually charge 15–40 thousand rubles, we start at 11,900 ₽.

What's included	Agency	SEOFetcher
AI visibility check	$500–$3,000	Free
Turnaround	5–14 days	30 seconds
PDF report	Included	Free, no sign-up
Deck without a watermark	Included	179 ₽
What to do with the result	Extra invoice	You, or whoever runs the site
Total	$500+	0–179 ₽

Further down are the phrases people use to look for a check. They don’t change the report.

Check whether AI can see the site

The check is free: an address, 30 seconds, no sign-up. You find out whether AI sees the site before paying an agency for the same look.

Check the site for ChatGPT

See whether ChatGPT would name your company. If the site is missing from answers, the report shows what the pages are not explaining.

Check the site for other AI answers

The same report covers Perplexity and Gemini. If a competitor is named and you are not, that gap shows up before you pay anyone to fix it.

Find out whether AI sees the site

One address, no sign-up. The report says, in plain words, where there is enough, where it is only partly there, and where it is missing. The technical list opens separately for a developer.
