How to Get Recommended by AI Shopping Agents
What an agent needs from a store
An AI shopping agent compares options for a person. To include you it must be able to reach your pages, understand what you sell, and be confident the business is real. Where any of those fail, it moves on without telling you.
Five steps
1. Open the door
Allow AI crawlers in robots.txt and make sure no firewall rule turns them away.
2. Describe your products in code
Add Product markup with price and availability so an agent does not have to guess from page layout.
3. Show who you are
Add Organization markup, and make About and Contact pages easy to find. Agents and shoppers both use them to judge trust.
4. Show real reviews
If you collect genuine customer ratings, mark them up. Never add ratings you do not have.
5. Make the buying path short
Hidden shipping costs, pop-ups and long option chains slow agents down. See five signs agents struggle on your store.
