Three general fixes
- Answer the questions where you were missing. In 2 of 3 sampled answers Lightfield was not named. A page on your own site that answers each of those questions in plain words, with the use case, who it is for and how it compares, gives the engine something to quote.
- Be present on the sites the engine already cites. The sampled answers cited zero.inc, attio.com, hireemma.ai, marketsplash.com, day.ai, pipedrive.com. Listings, reviews, guest pieces and comparison mentions on sites like these are a route into answers you do not appear in yet.
- Publish honest comparisons with the brands named. The engine named Zero, Attio, Day AI for these questions. A fair comparison page against the brands buyers already see, with a clear statement of when you are the better fit, matches how these answers are written.
