Questions

What is AI visibility for a local business?

It's how ready your business is to be found and correctly described when someone searches with AI. The biggest one for a local business is Google's own AI (Gemini, which powers AI Overviews and AI Mode) because it's built into the default Google search, followed by ChatGPT and Perplexity. They all read your Google Business Profile, reviews and website, so those signals decide whether you get named and whether the details are right.

How does this check work?

You enter your website. We fetch your homepage, robots.txt and llms.txt, then score the signals that matter to AI assistants: structured business data, whether AI crawlers are allowed, your rating markup, and how clearly your page describes you. You get a score and a prioritized list of specific fixes.

Is it free?

Yes, the check is free and needs no account. It only reads public pages on your site.

What matters most for showing up in Google's AI and other answers?

For a local business, the biggest levers are a steady stream of fresh Google reviews you reply to, a complete Google Business Profile, structured data on your website, and letting AI crawlers read your site. Google's AI (Gemini) leans especially hard on your Google Business Profile and reviews. SmallBizReply automates the reviews-and-replies part, the single strongest signal.
