  The Ultimate Guide to Being Cited by Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Perplexity & Gemini In 2025, getting ranked on page 1 of Google is no longer enough. You now need to be the source that AI engines cite in their answers. Google’s AI Overviews already appear on more than 17-25 % of queries (depending on region), Perplexity is growing 300 % YoY, and ChatGPT Search is live. If your content isn’t structured in a way that large language models can easily parse, extract, and trust, you simply won’t appear in the new generation of search results.

ChatGPT Atlas - The Evolution of Search: From Links to Conversations

Image
In the ever-evolving landscape of web browsing, OpenAI's ChatGPT Atlas has emerged as a bold challenger to the status quo. Launched on October 21, 2025, for macOS (with Windows, iOS, and Android versions teased as "coming soon"), Atlas isn't just another Chromium-based browser—it's an AI-infused portal that reimagines how we discover, process, and act on information.
