How to Get Your Product #1 on ChatGPT Using Reddit
This week I listened to Lennyβs Podcast with Ethan Smith (CEO of Graphite, leading SEO growth agency), where he broke down how to get ChatGPT to recommend your product.
Weβve been talking about this all year: search behavior is shifting away from Google. People increasingly skip the 10 blue links and just ask ChatGPT. They trust the answer blindly.
If your startup doesnβt show up there, someone else is taking your traffic and your customers, especially since traffic from LLMs is more qualified and converts better than Google Search traffic.
The key insight Ethan stressed is that showing up in ChatGPT isnβt random. LLMs lean heavily on certain sources, and you can influence whether youβre cited.
One of the most powerful and most accessible channels is Reddit. He even mentions that Reddit is the number one thing customers ask him how to optimize for.
Unlike paying Forbes or affiliates, Reddit is free. And thanks to OpenAI and Googleβs licensing deals with Reddit, everything you publish there is directly piped into ChatGPT.
With a good strategy for showing up on Reddit, early stage companies can outrank industry giants spending millions on marketing.
Thatβs why I put together a Reddit-based end-to-end framework to rank consistently in AI answers. And throughout, Iβll link Ethanβs insights from the podcast to show how this aligns with what top growth leaders are already doing.
