The Robot Reader
For years, we wrote for humans. Now, we write for Large Language Models (LLMs). These AI brains read the internet to learn about the world. If they don't know you, they can't recommend you.
Understanding LLM Training and Recommendations
Key facts about LLMs and marketing:
- LLMs are trained on billions of web pages including articles, reviews, and forums
- Brand mentions in training data directly influence AI recommendations
- Consistency across sources strengthens entity recognition
Teaching the Machine About Your Brand
LLMs work on association. If your brand appears next to words like "reliable" and "expert" all over the web, the AI learns that you are reliable and expert.
The "Skyscraper" Content Strategy
LLMs prefer comprehensive, deep guides over short, thin articles. What makes content LLM-friendly:
- Comprehensive coverage: 2000+ words covering all aspects
- Factual accuracy: Statistics with sources
- Clear structure: Logical headings and organization
- Original insights: Unique perspectives and data
Influence the Training Data
High-impact platforms for LLM visibility:
- Wikipedia: Highest authority for entity recognition
- News publications: Press mentions carry significant weight
- Industry publications: Trade journals and blogs
- Review platforms: Consistent positive reviews
