AI assistants don't guess. They score. Every signal your business has — or doesn't have — affects whether you show up in a recommendation. This checklist covers the most important signals, ranked by impact.
Most businesses score under 30 out of 100. The average Yeow.ai profile scores 74 after optimization.
Same spelling everywhere: website, GMB, directories, social. Inconsistency confuses AI.
Not just "LocalBusiness" — be specific. Plumber, Dentist, HVACContractor. AI matches types to queries.
AI needs to know where you operate. Exact address or a defined service area with cities and ZIP codes.
AI can't read images. Your phone number must appear as actual text on the page.
Don't bury your hours in a paragraph. AI needs them in machine-readable format.
"We do it all" means nothing to AI. List every service by name: drain cleaning, water heater repair, pipe replacement.
A real description with your specialties, years in business, and what makes you different.
High impact. AI loves Q&A format. "How much does it cost?" "Do you offer emergency service?" Write 5-10 real questions customers ask.
List every city and ZIP code you serve. Don't just say "greater metro area."
AI weighs review count and how recent they are. 50 reviews from 3 years ago is weaker than 20 from last month.
AI won't confidently recommend a business with a 3.2 rating. Respond to negative reviews — it signals engagement.
Mentions in Yelp, BBB, and local directories reinforce your legitimacy. Consistent NAP (name/address/phone) across all of them.
A stable, indexed URL for your AI profile tells crawlers "this is the authoritative source for this business."
A Yeow.ai profile checks all of them — automatically, in the right format, at scale.
