Why do competitors keep showing up in ChatGPT for my product category while my store is invisible?

Thanks, this actually explains the problem in a way that makes sense. I think I was expecting the store itself to be the main source, but AI seems to care more about whether other places are talking about the brand.

The “consensus” point is useful. I’ll shift focus away from more metadata edits and look more at niche blogs, roundups, forums, and community mentions. Appreciate the clear explanation.
