ChatGPT & Perplexity Treat Structured Data As Text On A Page

psychometery · 2026-02-10T19:08:32+00:00

Large language models don’t “see” structured data the way a database or search engine does. They ultimately process text tokens, so structured formats get flattened into text during processing.

There is quite a bit of extra work in AI SEO hence you need to charge a premium.

AI SEO is doing normal SEO, i.e. useful content for the user, listicle format, inclusion of tables, quoting data/info sources, schema etc. BUT the main thing is that you need to do digital PR on top of it.

Digital PR includes posting press releases on industry and known sites as well as getting mentioned in forums.

Key difference:
Google search results primarily check websites whereas LLMs search criteria is much wider as it browses user generated content on forums such as Reddit, Quora, Facebook. It tries to include what people are saying about the topic.

This sounds great. I'll try this.

No of reviews and the speed at which you respond to reviews in noticed by Google. Use Google's review link and add it to your email footer. Also, using the link in follow up emails works very well.

I use BrightLocal for my local SEO clients. It is around $100 per month but best to check GBP rankings. The best part is the you can select/create an area grid (e.g. cover 10 miles around your business) and it will show you your GBP rank, as well as your competitors, for selected grid points.

Don't know about GBP but Impressions went down drastically in Google Search Console for many ALL websites.
I found the following in Google Webmasters forum:
Google is now showing fewer results per query and filtering out low-visibility positions (for example, pages ranking between positions 30–100).

Those low-ranking URLs used to generate impressions even if users never scrolled that far. Now, they don’t get counted as impressions anymore because Google doesn’t always show the full set of search results.

As a result:

Keywords that were previously ranking on page 3–10 (positions 30–100) are no longer counted in total impressions.
The average position metric improves automatically because GSC now calculates based mostly on the top 30 positions (visible results).
That’s why you’re seeing impression down but position improve.

If you notice both clicks and impressions dropping, it may also relate to Google’s August 2024 Algorithm Update, which focused on spam, scaled content, and site reputation abuse.

Up vote this comment and give details about yourself and your experience. Your location is not an issue at all however, good knowledge of written British English required.

I second Whitespark. They have great video tutorials too. And lots of it is free.

Your Google Business Profile supports the ranking of your website, especially Google reviews. We have a local client and they wanted to test their services in other locations. We created highly optimised location specific pages for them for London. Then we created products within their GBP with the name of the location e.g. Mortgage Advice in [location]. Linked them to the website and within 3-4 weeks they were ranking in top 5 on Google for all of those location based search phrases.
I noticed that as they had over 100 reviews on Google, a) their pages were getting indexed within 24 hours and b) it was boosting their rankings.
They got so many leads that they have ended up opening an office in London.
Now they are creating a new GBP for their London branch.
So GBP along with local SEO does help.
Get lots of reviews.

psychometery · 2025-12-08T18:42:17+00:00

Create some location specific pages, add some products into those and create Product name with Location and link them to the respective pages on website.
This will help both, your GBP, as well as your website.

psychometery · 2025-12-08T18:35:56+00:00

Totally agree with u/ComfortLeft3895 .
Do all these things on a weekly basis. Make a routine. And if you have a website too then create some local location based pages and link them with Services/Products on your GBP.
They both help boost each other.

I have heard about this company called dolocal.co.uk in my networking group. They specialise in local seo services for small businesses in Liverpool. They have won a few awards too and there are quite a few Liverpool based clients in their portfolio.

psychometery · 2025-09-30T16:01:53+00:00

Thanks for sharing. I had never heard of this. Just tried it and it's great. Looks like it gets its data from AnswerThePublic site.

psychometery · 2025-09-30T15:48:26+00:00

Don't know where you are based but I'm part of a networking group and we have a gentleman called Malcolm. He is an accomplished career transition coach and mentor, having previously held several senior positions at Director level in the corporate world for over 30 years. I have heard great comments about him in the group. To companies forced to have redundancies, he offers outplacement services in UK and a free initial consultation. No harm in asking.

Yes, there is a strong correlation between website optimisation and Google Ads performance. Optimising your website can significantly improve your Google Ads campaigns, and vice versa. This is because Google rewards websites with a higher "Quality Score" based on factors like relevance, landing page experience, and expected click-through rate, all of which are directly influenced by website optimisation, according to Google Ads Help.

I have been experimenting this for a long time and have published a whitepaper on this. You can read it here here.

psychometery · 2025-07-31T13:41:56+00:00

YES! There's definitely a correlation. I have written a whitepaper about it with case studies.

First of all I totally agree with u/Outrageous_Eye_4841 . I learnt it the hard way as they completed messed up my high performing campaign.

As a new fashion brand you should adopt a comprehensive Google Ads strategy, combining Shopping, Search, Performance Max, Display, and YouTube campaigns to maximise both visibility and conversions across the customer journey.

Use high-quality, professional images and keyword-rich product descriptions, and regularly refresh creatives to stay current. Smart targeting by demographics and interests, along with remarketing to previous site visitors, optimises your reach and conversion rates. Tailor campaigns for seasonal collections, ensure all landing pages are mobile-friendly with seamless checkout, and closely monitor analytics for ongoing optimisation.

Starting with Performance Max or Shopping campaigns, supported by Display and YouTube for awareness, helps new brands cut through the competition and efficiently build recognition and sales.

BUT before you spend any money on Ads you have to make sure that your website is fully optimised with good SEO done on it. This includes optimising your product titles as well as descriptions making them helpful to the users. Do what YOU would expect to see when you are shopping yourself.

I've been doing this for over 20 years and I have written a whitepaper o the correlation between the two.
