Google is no longer the only place people search. Millions now bypass search engines entirely and turn to large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity for answers.
ChatGPT alone fields over 2.5 billion prompts a day and serves more than 120 million users daily.
This creates a massive opportunity. LLM SEO is how you get your content in front of those systems. The idea is to make your content so clear and credible that a model has no choice but to pull from it.
That means writing in a way machines can process, and people still want to read. Do it right, and you’ll show up where the traffic is already shifting.
This isn’t a future concern. It’s happening now. If you don’t adapt, readers will still get answers—just not from you. You’ll lose the click before you even get the chance to earn it.
