What Large language model (LLM) means
LLMs power AI chatbots, writing tools and AI search answers. They are increasingly how people research businesses, which is why AEO and GEO matter. They can also be built into your site for support, search or internal tools, with proper safeguards.
Why it matters for your website
More people now ask AI chat tools for recommendations, so these models influence which businesses get mentioned. They also power many writing, support and search features you may add to your own site. Knowing their limits, like making up facts, helps you use them safely and avoid publishing errors.
Example
A law office uses a language model to draft a first version of a blog post about lease disputes. An attorney then checks every legal claim before it goes live.
Tips
- Fact-check names, numbers and claims from any AI tool before publishing.
- Keep clear, accurate facts about your business on your site so AI tools have good information to draw from.
- Never paste confidential client data into a public AI tool without checking its data policy.
Common mistakes
- Publishing AI-written pages without review, which can spread errors and hurt trust.
- Assuming the model knows current information about your business, prices or hours.
