If AI doesn’t quote you, you don’t exist.
Hey there 👋
Remember when SEO meant cramming keywords into a blog post and praying Google would notice?
Yeah… those days are toast.
Today, if you want to be found, you need to be quoted by machines before a human even sees your link.
No joke. We’re talking ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and whatever AI pops out next.
Fun stat: 35% of internet users now ask AI before opening Google. That number’s rising fast.
Welcome to the world of AI-first discovery.

What does this mean for you?
It means classic SEO—keywords, backlinks, and meta tags—is no longer enough.
Now your content needs to be:
✅ Easy for AI to quote
✅ Written in chunks, like tweet-sized wisdom
✅ Packed with real context, not fluff
If it doesn’t make sense to a machine trained on 10 trillion words… you’re invisible.
Enter: LLM Optimization (aka LLMO)
It’s the new SEO. Here’s how you play the game now:
- Write stuff that’s rephrasable. Clarity wins. If a sentence can’t be paraphrased, it won’t be reused.
- Stack your content like a Big Mac. Title > summary > insight > example. Repeat.
- Drop truth-bombs. Data. Quotes. Facts. These are what LLMs love.
- Hang out where AI learns. Medium, Substack, Quora, Wikipedia—these places train the machines.
Quick glossary (so we sound smart)
- LLM: Big brain AI that reads everything and spits out answers.
- Semantic indexing: How AIs “get” your content even without keywords.
- Truth-atoms: Tiny verified nuggets of info AIs cling to like a lifeline.
TL;DR?
You’re not writing just for people anymore.
You’re writing for the machine whisperers.
You want to be in the answer, not on page 3 of Google.
Your next move?
If you’re a creator, consultant, or business owner who depends on visibility—
Start building content that machines trust.
Because when the AI recommends you first…
The sale’s already half-won.
Stay sharp,
