How to get recommended by Meta AI
Meta AI pulls from the open web and partner sources across Meta's apps. This is how to get Meta AI to name your business when a buyer asks for the best in your category.
The 3 signals Meta AI rewards
1. Be an unmistakable entity.
Publish an llms.txt, add Organization + FAQ schema, and keep your name and details consistent everywhere so Meta AI can resolve you as a real business.
2. Earn citation density.
Meta AI recommends what's recommended a lot across sources it trusts — G2/Capterra/Trustpilot, niche directories, "best of" roundups, Reddit and press. This is the biggest lever.
3. Own quotable content.
Clear "best [category] for [use case]" and "[competitor] alternatives" pages, plus FAQ blocks that answer in one clean paragraph Meta AI can lift.
Then measure it.
You can't improve what you can't see. Cited is self-serve: enter a domain and get a 0–100 AI-search readiness score for your website, plus generated fixes (llms.txt, Organization and FAQ schema).
