Get your content cited by ChatGPT Search and Bing Copilot by Iris (@gingiris) — AFFiNE former COO, 30+ PH #1 launches

TL;DR

• ChatGPT Search cites authoritative, specific, recent content
• E-E-A-T signals (Experience, Expertise, Author, Trust) are critical for ChatGPT citation
• Allow GPTBot in robots.txt
• Bing integration — Bing Copilot is powered by ChatGPT; Bing SEO = ChatGPT SEO
• Brand mentions + external links from authoritative sites = strong ChatGPT signal
• Founder voice — personal experience content gets cited more than generic AI content

How ChatGPT Cites Content

ChatGPT (especially ChatGPT Search / Browse feature) cites content through:

1. Bing index — ChatGPT Search uses Bing's index
2. E-E-A-T signals — Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, Trustworthiness
3. Specificity — concrete numbers, dates, named examples beat generic claims
4. Source signals — links to and from authoritative domains
5. Freshness — recent content preferred for time-sensitive topics

ChatGPT tends to cite pages that have:

• Named authors with credentials/experience in the topic
• Specific data — "30 launches" not "many launches"
• External citations — citing others increases your own credibility
• Clear structure — headings, lists, tables
• Brand consistency — same brand across articles signals authority

Step 2: Build E-E-A-T Signals

In August 2022, when we launched AFFiNE on Product Hunt, 
we got 180 upvotes on day one. Most teams get 20-40.

Expertise (E) — Subject matter expertise:

As someone who's run 30+ Product Hunt launches and 
managed open source projects from 0 to 33k GitHub stars...

Authoritativeness (A) — External citations:

According to Ahrefs, the average first-page ranking takes 
3-6 months. (Cite authoritative sources)

Trustworthiness (T) — Accurate, verifiable claims:

Our method reduced launch prep time by 60% — tested across 
12 projects over 18 months. (Specific, verifiable)

Step 3: Article Schema with Author

    "name": "Your Brand",

  }
}

Step 4: Brand Building (Off-Page)

• Get mentioned on LinkedIn — ChatGPT heavily cites LinkedIn profiles
• Guest posts on high-authority sites
• Wikipedia mentions — strong trust signal
• Build GitHub presence — GitHub = high authority in developer topics

Step 5: Bing SEO (Critical Path)

Since ChatGPT uses Bing index:

1. Submit to Bing Webmaster Tools

1. IndexNow push

   curl "https://www.bing.com/indexnow?url=YOUR_URL&key=YOUR_KEY"

1. Bing Places — if local business, claim your listing
