AI SEO Strategy

Insights by Eyal Krief, creator of SheepRank.

Why AI Changes SEO

Search engines are no longer the only gatekeepers. ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Mistral cite sources directly in their answers. If you’re not cited, you’re invisible.

Strategic Actions

Publish concise, verifiable answers (60–200 words).
Seed discussions on Reddit/LinkedIn with mirrored phrasing.
Mark every page with schema & FAQ blocks.
Test prompts weekly to track if AIs cite you.
